Description
Launched in 2007 by longtime friends, producers and DJs, Jason Short, Marc Smith, Tim Kelleher and Hac Le, San Francisco-based Auralism Records brings the minimal machinations of Berlin to the Bay Area's famously funky dance floors. Auralism's roots trace back to 2005, when Smith and Short, producing together as the duo Coalition of the Killing, realized they'd need an outlet to handle their formidable stockpile of unreleased tracks. After top-flight DJs began blowing up parties worldwide with their white labels, they knew what needed to be done: the only way to give the music the forum it deserved was to release it themselves. Thus began the vision for a driven, analog-centric label that will finally get Bay Area techno noticed by its European counterparts.
