The label moved to the internet in 1994, to the web in >1996 and has been in exclusive digital production and distribution since >1998. In 2000 it moved on to become a dedicated server, operating various >domains from Hollywood, CA. > >"Starting in 1992 I reworked tracks that were never released or were left >unfinished and toyed with the idea of making some kind of super structure of >audio works created over a twenty-year period. As time went on I began to >see all my tracks as making up one conceptual continuum. This formulated the >aesthetic of SUPERMODERNISM. As my work unfolded with one style following >another, I was very careful to avoid redundancy. The disparate parts are now >coming together to form an aesthetic whole," says Rothkamm. > >And indeed, as many artists are forced to build their own spaces to >present something unusual, Rothkamm had to build a supermodern digital >infrastructure to present FLUXRECORDS.COM on a full-blown 226-day scale. > >For more information and to search the complete flux records database, >please go to http://www.fluxrecords.com > >=======================================================================
