Pop Montreal Label Showcase + Grimes Album Release

On September 30th we'll be hosting our label showcase, as part of the Pop Montreal festival. The evening takes place at the beautiful Rialto Theatre, constructed in 1924 and modelled after the neo-baroque Paris Opera House in the Louix XVI style. Tickets are five dollars, and are available in advance from Phonopolis (5403A ave du Parc) as of September 1st.

This show will also be the launch party for Grimes' new album, Halfaxa. Released on CD for $8 + shipping, with a bonus poster, we're now accepting pre-orders. Please send an email to Jasper at orders(at)arbutusrecords.com and include you shipping address.

Arbutus reconsiders philosophy and website!

In closing Lab Synthèse, we have said goodbye to a cherished friend. With grace and ease, lab provided for us more then we could have imagined. Not that it was effortlessness - at times it was incredibly difficult - but these trying situations allowed one to grow and learn at an unparallelled rate.

In this parting, we take with us the significance we found. The integral community built by these efforts, is turned to this new focus: a medium liberated from the limitations of physical space. The direct involvement of the community results in the opening and cumulative mutual growth of all projects.

As such, a generously proportioned congratulations is extended to Alex for fronting the new website, Emily for her design and artistic input, and Tamas for his boundless knowledge of all things.
