Geometrik

Geometrik is a Spanish record label specializing in Electronic, Experimental, and Industrial music. Founded by an influential figure in the industry in 1986, it has been based in Madrid ever since. Originally known as Discos Esplendor Geométrico, the label underwent a rebranding in 1991 and became Geometrik.

With a rich history spanning over three decades, Geometrik has established itself as a leading force within the electronic music scene. The label's diverse roster of artists includes some of the most innovative and boundary-pushing musicians in the genre.

Geometrik's commitment to pushing boundaries is evident not only through its artist selection but also through its dedication to releasing music that challenges traditional notions of sound. With a focus on experimental and industrial sounds, Geometrik offers listeners a unique sonic experience that pushes the limits of what can be achieved with electronic music.

Reissue on vinyl limited to 600 numbered copies celebrating the 40th anniversary of Esplendor Geometrico's first LP: El Acero del Partido / Heroe del trabajo (1982). Considered a masterpiece of industrial music from the eighties, it's the record where they started to define their unique style. Already devoid of aggressive lyrics and even titles for their tracks, the sound begins to acquire a personality of its own, with an astounding austerity. Repetitive litanies infected by impossible machine sounds, noisy buzzes, organized metallurgy and newscasts from the East Europe, that glare by moments. Seven instrumental tracks of repetitive mechanical rhythms than paint a landscape of abandoned factories and rusty machinery. Remastered in 2022 and unavailable on vinyl for more than 10 years! The original cover is preserved and includes an exclusive collage-insert with rare photos and texts. A great classic!
