Artists

A small roster, chosen carefully.

We sign artists the way a museum acquires a piece. Slowly, deliberately, and only when the work feels worth preserving for fifty years.

IThe Roster
01New York

Naomi

Vocals · Piano

A nocturnal voice and pianist. Records best between midnight and dawn, with the windows open.

VNR-0001 · Moon Exit

02Lisbon

Auguste Vale

Upright bass · Composer

Writes for empty rooms and unanswered telephones. Composes in handwritten letters before he composes in notation.

VNR-0002 · Letters to Paloma

03Rio de Janeiro

Iris Monteiro

Voice · Bossa

Bossa, smoke, and a single rented Steinway. Believes silence between notes is as composed as the notes themselves.

VNR-0003 · Velvet, Slow

04Montréal

Theo Calder

Tenor saxophone · Ambient

Ambient jazz dispatches recorded during winter residencies. Prefers cold rooms and warm tape.

VNR-0004 · Hotel Bonaventure
