FREE Myspace CodesSIRR was founded in Lisbon, Portugal, in 2001, by Paulo Raposo to promote innovative and challenging sound art. The label releases works by artists who question and problematize sound in a unique way outside the idiomatic boundaries of the genre. SIRR focuses on releasing electronic and electroacoustic music, composition and installation work, with a strong interest in context, process, contemporary forms and relations between sound and space. Until the present time, Sirr has released over 30 CDs by acclaimed and emerging international sound artists and has become a respected and notorius presence in the field of contemporary experimental sound art worldwide.

"Converging medias, the dissolution and subsequent reintegration of sound to its infinite array of origins, radical applications of noise/texture breaking through traditional barriers—the Portuguese label SIRR operates at this and other pliable junctures. Focusing at first on indigenous talent, label founder Paulo Raposo has since embraced free radicals worldwide, musicians discarding at times preconceived definitions of ‘music’, denizens of sound art whose surroundings (performance space, object, instrumentation, design) are usually implicit in their sonic realizations and explicit in their compositional fabric." [E|I magazine/U.S.A.]
