Herbal Records Based in Kuala Lumpur, we are a CD label with more then 100 releases! And we also run a online mini store for other label's CD. Why concrete?

Herbal is a audio CD label, the direction was simple and clear, from the beginning. But when I'm asked to define what is CD beyond just common understanding of compact disc (just another 'container' for sound / music), the answer become the title of the major series: Concrete Disc. it is refer to "Musique concrète", sound in the concrete format. An audio CD is not only a document of studio recordi

ng or live recording, it can be more, it can be question / challenge everytime a CD being made. Why must this studio recording or live recording being mass produced and make available worldwide? I see CD as a convenience format for home listening (before mostly just digital format now-a-day), the audience find out about the contents at home. My definition of home is a place with 'more focus and concentrate listening envelopment' as well as 'open for philosophical challenge'. Herbal releases are file under either field recording (and related), or abstract / noise, or simply unclassified. It might not see the connection from the genre aspect, but for Herbal, they meet the home listening standard, and challenge the common understanding of compact disc.
