Rejoice Freeform fanatical family. Further franchises of our frivolous audio pheromones finally rises ferociously from the furnace of fandom.
Fun. Fresh. Freeform.
Follow, ‘fleas’e.
Greetings, Freeform enthusiasts! I'm sure you've noticed it has been rather quiet in our little scene as of late. Stamina closed its doors last year, leaving a massive hole in its wake, and things haven't been quite the same since. There are a handful of amazing artists still releasing tunes on occasion, but it is just not enough.
We aim to help remedy that.
Introducing Animus Records, a US-based Freeform label from scene veterans Audio X and Soulr. Our vision is to provide a consistent flow of quality releases across the entire spectrum of Freeform Hardcore, from the dark and acid-infused to the progressive and ethereal, from classic vibes to Hard Psy to Tech and everything in between.
In just a few days, our first release will become available, and we plan on steadily putting out tunes every month until we physically can't anymore! In the meantime, check out the teaser clips we've put together for you! (Links below)
Our Discord will also go live at that time, and we hope to foster a community of fans, budding new artists, and seasoned producers, with the goal of nurturing something far bigger than just a couple of guys releasing music on Bandcamp.
So why "Animus"?
One of the several definitions of this word is "a motivating force." And for now, that is what we want to focus on. Simply put, we saw an opening to provide you all with more of the music that we love and to create a space where we can grow our community organically, and we don't intend to stop.
That is our animus.
What's yours?
