Statra Recordings is the well-respected independent record label founded by Brooklyn native Dave Tomaselli back in April of 1999. The label was created to help distinguish electronic music in full-length album form from its short-lived often-unrecognized cousin the 12 club record. Statra is one of those always present but under the radar record labels that focuses on quality over quantity.
Statra quickly set the benchmark for electronic labels in the US with its unconventional A&R style and the infamous compilation series Harry The Bastard Presents - Club H. A succession of innovative and highly coveted albums from artist like Jeff Sharel, Denver McCarthy, Charles Webster, and the 2000 label compilation Statras Paradigm Shift quickly propelled Statra onto the international stage. The labels releases were often referred to as timeless, future classic, and even brilliant.
With the creation of the vinyl only sub-labels STATRA TWELVES (Deep & Tech House), STATRAVEL (Leftfield & Down-Tempo), and STATRAX, the collaboration label formed with world-renowned DJ & producer Victor Calderone, Statra continues to find success both on and off the dance floor.
Statras catalog is distributed in the US by A.D.A., Fusion 3 in Canada, Amato in UK, and is available online at most digital download retailers via IODA.
Statra artists include: Harry The Bastard, Jeff Sharel, Lypid, Denver McCarthy, Nu Mood Orchestra, Chris J, Charles Webster, Astrid Suryanto, J.Axel, Mr. Velcro Fastener, Victor Calderone, Stacy Burket, Alexi Delano, Nick Chacona, Jussi Pekka, and James Geche.
