Gybexi:

'''Complex Holiday''' is a record label founded in 2020. It is based in Malta and Brussels, Belgium. Although the general focus of the label is "inside-out ambient and sound art tomfoolery", it is more broadly active in the fields of experimental music, ambient music, sound art, avant-garde composition, field recordings and related genres.

The label released music by [[Ayn Il Widen]], [[Kurt Buttigieg]], [[Peter Sant]], [[Robert Farrugia]] and other artists. Most of the label's releases are issued on short-run cassette and digital download.

Complex Holiday was founded by [[Kurt Buttigieg]] and is managed by [[Kurt Buttigieg]] and [[Robert Farrugia]].

Gybexi: /* List of Maltese record labels */

'''Elektronika''' is a research project that aims to develop a historiography of electronic music in Malta. This project was developed from ongoing collaboration between the M3P Foundation and [[Electronic Music Malta]].

The project was launched on Wednesday 21 October 2020 during [[Circuits]] at [[Spazju Kreattiv]]. The [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xskalmTkOgU launch event] featured a presentation by [[Michael Bugeja]] with a running commentary by [[Toni Sant]], moderated by [[Edwin Balzan]].

Below is a working list of electronic bands and artists from Malta or with a Maltese connection, which we hope to expand on by inviting contributions and suggestions from anyone in possession of information, recordings, newspaper and magazine cuttings, visuals, flyers, posters, etc and/or any other object that can help this project reach its goal.

Elektronika

2021-02-05T09:43:52Z

Gybexi: /* List of Maltese Electronic Bands and Artists */

'''Elektronika''' is a research project that aims to develop a historiography of electronic music in Malta. This project was developed from ongoing collaboration between the M3P Foundation and [[Electronic Music Malta]].

The project was launched on Wednesday 21 October 2020 during [[Circuits]] at [[Spazju Kreattiv]]. The [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xskalmTkOgU launch event] featured a presentation by [[Michael Bugeja]] with a running commentary by [[Toni Sant]], moderated by [[Edwin Balzan]].

Below is a working list of electronic bands and artists from Malta or with a Maltese connection, which we hope to expand on by inviting contributions and suggestions from anyone in possession of information, recordings, newspaper and magazine cuttings, visuals, flyers, posters, etc and/or any other object that can help this project reach its goal.

Gybexi:

'''Kurt Buttigieg''' is a musician, writer and artist from [[Ħamrun]], Malta, based in [[Brussels]], Belgium.

Most of his output broadly fits the experimental music, electronic music, avant-garde composition and ambient music genres, both as a solo artist and as [[Ayn Il Widen]], the improvised music duo he forms with [[Carla Said]].

He is an occasional contributor to [https://www.thewire.co.uk/about/contributors/kurt-buttigieg The Wire magazine], for whom he mapped out Malta's underground music scene in [https://ghajnilwiden.com/the-wire-malta/ an article published in February 2020]. He also writes for other publications, amongst which Italian platform [https://www.thenewnoise.it/author/kurt-buttigieg/ The New Noise].

[[File:Kurt Buttigieg - Artist profile photo.jpg|thumb|150px|Kurt Buttigieg in 2019]]

Buttigieg founded a record label called [[Complex Holiday]] in 2020, which he co-runs with [[Robert Farrugia]] and does most of the graphic design for. He is also intermittently active with a non-profit organisation dedicated to "genre-bending music", [[Arsha Our]], and created Malta's first sound art installation at [[Uber]], a contemporary art group show, in 2000. He is also active in Belgium with several organisations and artists.

Pinkpube

2021-01-01T21:57:51Z

Gybexi:

'''Pinkpube''' was Malta's first netlabel, founded in August 2005. It ceased activity in 2011.

Its main focus was to freely distribute electronic and experimental music from Maltese artists. The netlabel issued numerous releases in a variety of styles through its website.

Some of the styles featured on Pinkpube include Ambient, Idm, Techno, Electro and Experimental Electronica, from artists like [[Danjeli]], [[Sonitus Eco]], Hagen, [[Acidulant]], [[Kurt Buttigieg]], Brian James, Dot., X-18 and many more.

[[File:Pinkpube logo.jpg|thumb|150px|Pinkpube logo]]

Pinkpube also acted as a music promotion organisation having organised various nights in different venues. Some of the international acts and artists Pinkpube had invited to perform in Malta include Detroit's legendary duo Dopplereffekt, LA's The Gaslamp Killer, Finnish Samuli Kemppi and Austrian artist Bernhard Gal.

The associated non-profit organisation [[Arsha Our]] has continued several aspects of Pinkpube's work after the latter's dissolution.

'''Arsha Our''' is a non-profit organisation from Malta. It is intermittently active and its main focus is organising activities related to electronic music, sound art, experimental music and "genre-bending music".

It was founded following the dissolution of [[Pinkpube]], and continues to - at least in part - do some of the work spearheaded by the latter.
