About Me

Nishi is a sub-label of the first & most well known Canadian MP3 label No Type .

Nishi was formed in 2002 by K.M. Krebs (aka 833-45 ) to expand No Type's "sphere of influence" onto the West Coast of Canada. Since then, Nishi's own "sphere of influence" has expanded to encompass all parts of the world, featuring artists from Russia, Brazil, Germany, USA, Italy, Ukraine, Australia, and every other corner of the globe. In 2005 and 2006, Ed Powley (aka Colophon ) of the UK assisted with the running of Nishi. In 2007, the curatorship of Nishi passed to Christopher Benuzzi (aka Splicer ) of the US whose goal is to continue Nishi in the same ecclectic spirit in which it was founded.

Nishi means West in Japanese.
