Angular Recording Corporation
Encyclopedia
Angular Recording Corporation is an independent record label
originally based in New Cross
, South East London
. Set up in June 2003
by two ex-Goldsmiths College students, Joe Daniel and Joe Margetts, who reclaimed a local Ordnance Survey
Triangulation Station and made it their first artefact: ARC 001. The label's founders claim to have been influenced by a love of angular pop music
and the Manchester
label Factory Records
. Gaining funding through medical testing, Angular Recording Corporation was able to finance its debut release in November 2003, the NME
-championed The New Cross : An Angular Sampler.
In the 2011 England riots
, the label lost all its stock and entire back catalogue. They made light of a bad situation on their website: 'I just hope the rioters orchestrated this as a KLF
-esque commentary on art and the value of commodity. Or maybe they'd seen The Wicker Man and decided to sort us all out with a good old sacrifice to ensure a good harvest next year.'
