BIG PHARMA STUDIO

hi

jott here to get some words out about the big pharma studio prior our labellaunch on may 1st.

the big pharma studio is located in an old schoolhouse in the middle of the northern hinterlands of germany. the building houses multiple arts and music projects from the area, big pharma studio being one of them.

the recording room (the hyaenidae) was originally just a space for me to play loud music after my first daughter was born and i therefore wasn't able to do much music at home. over time we, my band and i, found ourselves not in the mids of a big empty space but in an actual DIY-professionalistic studio with a lot of possibilities to offer.
we have an arsenal of software and hardware to share, a wide array of effect pedals and all means nesscessary to record all types of instruments, electric as well as classic (including drums) and vox.

we see ourselves as artists supporting artists, playing the role of a label as we move along. inviting Big Pharma Records artists into our studio will be the next big step for BPR/BPE in it's growth as we now can support artists WHILE they are making their art.

to apply for session just send a mail to bigpharmaeuropa@gmail.com with links to your music and a rough idea of what you want to do in the studio.

Big Pharma Europa launches on may 1st!

BIG PHARMA EUROPA

hello friend

my name is jott, i am the new head of new-formed BIG PHARMA EUROPA and i want to adress a few words on our new endeavours. not only will BPE start releasing niche and experimental artists from europe as digital downloads starting may 1st. but also, for the first time in BIG PHARMA RECORDS history, we now invite muscians into our studio in germany to record with us, make experiments and share experiences. (more on that in the next blogpost) EUROPA was a nescessary step to prevent BPR from collapsing under it's immense weight. with more people onboard we aim to give each of our artists the focus they need and deserve.

in classical greek mythology, europa (ancient greek: eὐρώπη, eurṓpē) is the name of a phoenician princess wich got abducted by zeus disguised as an ox. (shit story) anyway the name contains the elements εὐρύς (eurús), "wide, broad" and ὤψ (ōps, gen. ὠπός, ōpós) "eye, face", hence their composite eurṓpē would mean "wide-gazing" or "broad of aspect".

BIG PHARMA EUROPA is our way to enable our label to widen it's scope, support more great artists and most of all grow, grow, grow!

BIG PHARMA RECORDS is a great thing going for artists who want full creative control of their releases, keep their rights and release their music with people who truly give a fuck about their art AND the person behind it.

until now BPR was a fully american staffed label wich, in a world with timezones, can be a difficult thing to manage if you aim for close artist relations. so EUROPA is not only a new sublabel, it is extended 'customer care' .

i will update this blog unregulary from now on with a definied schedule setting it on may 1st. until then i will post a few 'behind the scenes' insights from our studio.

in good spirit for the things to come,

jott
head of BIG PHARMA EUROPA

BPRCD11

BPRCD11 - //////sixsixsick//////



From Germany, How I Met Lauren's first official physical release! Proudly on Big Pharma.


Beautifully composed and ever-changing experimental noise. This plays out like a sonic tapestry, or a musical Jackson Pollock. Three tracks that begin HIML's sonic journey of religious introspection (with more volumes to follow). We are honored to have How I Met Lauren in the family.

BPRCD10

BPRCD10 - Injustitae



Sorry for our long delay, life does get in the way.

Our next CDr release is a two-disc volume from Serbia's Dosis Letalis.


Stemming away from the traditional (and often cliche) HNW themes of sex, nylon and death, we have a HNW release centered on political revolution and the alienation of the modern industrial worker.

BPRCD9

BPRCD9 - PKWST II



Our next release comes from the desert land of Arizona, II by the ominous PKWST.


Recorded in the middle of a thunderstorm, this album is a dark and depraved journey through the farthest reaches of the human psyche. Synthesizer-laden harsh noise with extremely heavy black metal and crust punk influences and aesthetic. DIY or Die.


Be on the lookout for 'III' and 'IV', coming soon.
