Parotic Music

R.I.P. Parotic. 1997-2007

About Me

Born out of the techno axis that is Detroit/Chicago/Minneapolis in early 1997, Parotic Music was launched to focus on the experimental side of techno while maintaining the element of funk. Thus, the label's mantra: "Music for your mind, thoughts for your feet". Forged from an array of musical influences that range from rock to new/no-wave, punk and industrial, the label has taken on a schizophrenic identity over the years. Never satisfied with the status quo, the Parotic sound is ever-evolving. We're always searching for new artists to help us push the envelope.
