Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone

Skysia, emerging from Denver's dynamic music scene, is a standout artist renowned for his unique blend of ethereal, organic, and melodic sounds with a new focus on sound design and bass. His transition from a nomadic life in a mini-school bus to a thriving Denver-based musician symbolizes his evolving artistry, balancing darkness and light in his compositions. His mission is to infuse harmony and storytelling into bass music, as he believes in the power of narrative in music-making.

His recent work includes the Overture EP (February 2024) on the prestigious Odyzey label and the acclaimed "Here" album (2023), accompanied by the feature film "Here: Memories of a Soul," directed by Julia Delbourg. This project, inspired by his 13-track LP, delves into themes of memory, existence, and relationships.

Skysia’s background in film studies deeply influences his music, adding a cinematic and symphonic quality to his sound. He aims to take listeners on a hero’s journey through his compositions, combining earthy textures, deep bass, and orchestral strings for an immersive experience.

He has graced stages at major festivals and events such as Lucidity Festival, Elements Festival, and Meow Wolf, sharing the limelight with artists like Clozee, The Funk Hunters, Rezz, and many others. His upcoming performances include Texas Eclipse and Red Rocks with CloZee and LSDREAM.

The name 'Skysia,' derived from 'sky' and 'sea,' reflects the duality of his music, capable of being both soothing and intense. This balance is a cornerstone of his style, fusing melodic downtempo with experimental bass, and allowing listeners to connect with all aspects of themselves.

Skysia's commitment to storytelling and melody sets him apart in the electronic music scene, making him a compelling figure in the industry. His approach to music is a testament to his belief in the importance of storytelling, ensuring that each song is not just a track but a narrative journey.
