Lightarmour Editions
The rebellious and inquisitive musical spirit is unrelenting,
And the aspiration for beauty, both light and dark, essential.
Now is the time, again.
Lightarmour Editions
Lightarmour Editions is a Record Label and Studio inspired by an underlying musical zeitgeist rather than any specific genre; the jewelled ghost of primal-era Factory, 4AD, Mute, Fast Product, and Rough Trade (amongst many others, including Australia’s Volition & New Zealand’s Flying Nun) has been in the air for some years now, and the Post-CorporateHipHopPop generation has gagged on crass and vacuous non-imagination long enough . . .
Zeitgeist |ˈzʌɪtɡʌɪst| The defining spirit or mood of a particular period of history as shown by the ideas and beliefs of the time. From German, literally “spirit of the age”; Zeit, meaning “time,” and Geist, meaning “spirit” or “ghost.”
