York House Recordings, also known as YHR or YHR Tapes, was a small British independent label which released 31 original cassettes of industrial, electronic, experimental, avant-garde, and dark ambient music between 1979 and 1983.
History[]
York House Recordings was founded by David Elliott, who also published a magazine called Neumusik. Elliott put out a series of cassettes in parallel with the magazine featuring artists from all over the world.[1]
YHR released music by Cluster & (Live In Vienna) and Asmus Tietchens ( and )[2][3] which had been rejected as too unusual by Sky Records. Other notable artists with releases by YHR include Maurizio Bianchi, , Andrew Cox, , Paul Nagle, , and Elliott's own band , later known as Pump.
Many YHR releases were subsequently reissued by on cassette after the demise of the label. A number have also been reissued on LP or CD by an assortment of labels.
