Anodize

Founded & operated by Darren Bergstein originally as a sublabel of Periphery, Anodize is a locus for music electronic, experimental and otherwise, representing the finest in tactile visual audio. Silver through and through, produced in collector's edition tins and six-panel digipaks, Anodize's mandate emphasizes the continuing relevance and artistic value of the physical CD, what it represents historically, culturally, and physically as the ideal playback media for high-quaity, recorded sound. In 2014, Anodize became a fully-functioning entity independent of Periphery, which itself is on hiatus. Artists that reside on Anodize are a varied lot; the label does not limit itself to one particular subgenre of electronic music, but instead demonstrates a wide remit, more concerned with variety, experimentalism, depth, and distinction. Anodize ceased operations as of December 2015; its corresponding Bandcamp pages remain functional until all remaining stock is no longer available.
