Based in Belgium, idiosyncratics records was founded in 2003 as a collective by yannick franck and phil maggi - totally disorganized, irrelevant, anarchic, only based on personal and creative affinities.
To date the collective has produced idiosyncrasia, eve and the sickness, y.e.r.m.o., the magnificent looping tapes project vuelta magnética (by sébastien demeffe), and yannick franck and phil maggi's solo projects. Practically, the collective exists to book concerts, share music / sounds and connect with demarcated, not commercial, sincere projects.
The music / sound art and the different projects idiosyncratics provide and defend take their roots in the collective's inspirations and beliefs: drone, electroacoustic improvisation, electronic composition, sound materiality, research, pataphysical composition and processes, minimalism, DIY, experimental / abstract / intuitive / free sounds…
In 2005 maxime lê-hûng joined idiosyncratics and the trio had the idea to launch an independent label / netlabel and the conception of a first cd release : idioscapes.
