	4AD Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British indie rock record label 4AD Records was started in 1979 by Ivo Watts-Russell and Peter Kent, funded by Beggars Banquet Records.
		It was originally formed as Axis Records, but this was quickly changed to 4AD when it became apparent that the name Axis was already being used by another music company.
		In the 1990s, 4AD established an office in Los Angeles and enjoyed success with bands such as The Breeders, Red House Painters, Unrest, and His Name Is Alive.

		She typically records several different vocal tracks per song and, when the song is mixed and mastered, it sounds like there is more than one person singing, when it's actually all Liz.
		Liz is pursuing a solo recording career, while Robin and Simon continue to work on their own musical projects, manage their Bella Union record label and the September Sound recording studio.
		However, the only recordings to surface since then have been a series of remixes for a song entitled "Underwater," which are available only as bootlegs since it was never formally released.

	Mundane Sounds
		4AD was perhaps the most distinctive, most aesthetically strong labels of the 1980s.
		Being the first new 4AD signing in two years, and knowing how the label has become rather quiet in the "new artists" department, curiosity leads one to wonder about this new signing.
		This record soars high, and follows in the tradition of such luminaries as Dead Can Dance, Cocteau Twins, and Harold Budd.

	IVO WATTS-RUSSELL: 4AD'S AURAL ARCHITECT
		Excited by the music he was hearing in the late '70s, the one-time record store manager formed 4AD Records, a pioneering British label that has become synonymous with innovation and quality.
		As a way to unify the diverse output on the label, many 4AD albums, particularly during the '80s, were presented with dreamy, surreal, soft-focus photography or art on their covers.
		A large number of early 4AD albums, including those by the Cocteau Twins, were recorded at Blackwing Studios in London, which was initially equipped for 8-track recording, but eventually evolved into a 24-track facility.

		You may not be familiar with the name 4AD, but you know its sound: Bauhaus, This Mortal Coil, the Cocteau Twins, the Pixies, the Breeders.
		Watts-Russell and 4AD recently separated company, but one of his 4AD projects was reissued last month: Underarms, a project of Watts-Russell’s band the Hope Blister, is a symphonic, seamless, textured and beautiful album, created from musical elaborations on bits from the Hope Blister’s first album, Smile’s OK.
		And we were in the mountains in Majorca, naked most of the time, and we had Brian Eno on a continual loop and it was absolutely astonishing, the effect—the environment, the music, it would slip in and out of focus.

	Interview w/ Ivo from American Music Press, 1993
		It is not because Ivo, the founder of 4AD Records, is particularly difficult subject to interview, but because it is undeniable that Ivo has had a major role in the formation of independent music as we know it.
		4AD Records was founded in 1980 by Ivo and partner Peter Kent as a side project from Beggar's Banquet, where Ivo was then employed.
		But it is evident that there is a cohesion to 4AD releases in terms of their aesthetic, artistically pleasing packaging.

		Their original self released EP, "Subsequent Pleasures", was a limited vinyl pressing of 500 copies, and quickly sold out The band went on to record their self-titled debut for 4AD records, and the rest is history.
		The demos from the 4AD release are nice to hear as well, much more reminiscent of earlier Cure records at times, and much more heavily reliant on keyboards than the previous songs.
		It is interesting to see the way that the band progressed musically in such a short time, finding its own distinctive voice in a genre that denied individualism at the same time that it was trying to promote it.

		Early proponents of what later became the 4AD sound, Dif Juz concentrated on just that, lacking a vocalist on all their recordings except for a guest spot or two by the Cocteau Twins'; Liz Fraser.
		The first Dif Juz LP released on 4AD, 1985's Extractions, was much less ambient (though just as moody) than their previous works.
		It also contained the first vocal on a Dif Juz record, by the Cocteaus' Liz Fraser; her bandmate Robin Guthrie produced the album.

		David's early releases on the Melodic label caught 4AD's attention with their blend of intricate detail and warm melody, and he subsequently turned in fine remixes of His Name Is Alive's "One Year" and Mojave 3's "Bluebird Of Happiness".
		About the box: 30 were released for sale (200 pounds each directly from 4AD), 70 were given away to the bands, distibutors of 4AD material and others.

		Her role in Mojave 3 has been one of diminishing returns--it's hard to even think of her as a member of the band anymore, as she never sings anything more than backing vocals.
		Considering that it was released on longtime label 4ad is no surprise, either.
		As records go, it's as unexpectedly unsurprising affair from a talent who has never really been given the chance to shine on her own until now, and though the record isn't anything new for Goswell, it's still an excellent display of her talents.

	The Hope Blister Review by The Phantom Tollbooth
		The lead vocals come from the very talented Louise Kutkowski (one of the Kutkowski twins involved in later This Mortal Coil recordings); she is supported by a range of backing vocalists.
		While her vocals aren't quite as spine-tingling as label-mate Lisa Gerrard, nor as world-weary as Kristin Hersch, her voice is well suited to the music and her inflections show elements of both of these other singers.
		Although this is a sparse record, with the strings and bass guitar dominating, it feels like there is more there than there actually is.
