LONA RECORDS (HONG KONG)

Set up in 2003, Lona Records is an independent label in Hong Kong preoccupied with producing Alternative / Experimental music.

In December 2005, we launched a series of 3" CDR singles as an attempt to explore the aesthetic boundaries of experimental sound. Each 3" CDR or 5" CDR features musical/multi-media works by independent artists from across the world, including the U.K., U.S., Japan, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Argentina, Finland, Poland, mainland China, and Hong Kong etc. Each volume is released in a limited numbered edition of 50 to 150. From droning to clicks n' cuts, from glitch to avant-garde, from ambient to extreme noise, we venture off the beaten path and bring all sorts of exciting sounds to a worldwide audience.

We are thrilled to see that this 3" series has attracted more and more great artists/bands, both new and established, from near and afar, to lay in our hands the products of their sonic experiments. Open-ended and ever-evolving, this series is rolling on and on—breaking new ground, transcending more boundaries. We are still waiting to see how far it can go.

Alongside the 3" series we also release CDs in larger size and quantity, which include the official album Hou Guan Yin of FM3 + Dou Wei from Beijing, the first 2 official album She Traded Her Leg / The Garden Of Scissors of Jeffrey Butzer from the United States, the debut mini album Abraham and full length album The Way We Were of The Yours and the 2nd album 7 Deadly Sins of UNiXX from Hong Kong.
