In times where some settled and influential first-wave Netlabels are closing their doors, it’s good to see that fresh new voices are popping up on the scene. For different reasons, one of them deserves a special mention Curtain fall for aaahh-records!

aaahh-records is placed in the notorious “conspiratorial city” of Bielefeld and therefore some kind of local neighbour to us. In the group of six people working on aaahh-records we also find a name that is well known to the Netaudio scene: Christian Grasse. Christian is writing about free culture issues at the Metawelle weblog and hosts the radioshows “Popmoderne” for Campusradio Bielefeld and the Netaudio-only show FreeQuency at awesome Byte.fm.
aaahh starts with a full-length release from the Canadian duo “The Wind Whistles” . The twelve-track LP “Window Sills” is filled with beautiful Country-flavored Indie Pop and gives us a glimpse on what to expect at aaahh-records in the future: independent Popmusic in all its shiny facets.

Welcome aaahh-Records to the netlabel world, we are curious what will come next!

Thanks a lot for these kind words!
It is important to us not just to release an album, but to promote it aswell. We try to gain the biggest possible awareness on our artists works, thats why we want to work on a media-network aswell. all “free media” concepts should work together. there are tons of independent and noncommercial radio- and tvstations, blogs, fanzines, webzines, etc. that can use cc-licensed content, but it is difficult to contact them all at once… so, this is also something that we are working on.
