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

Exploring the planet and the sounds it makes.

I've been a musician for almost 30 years. I started as a guitarist, began to  write my own songs, formed my first band and so on.

A few years ago I was in a situation, where I enjoyed some small and local success  and played occasional concerts with singer-songwriter stuff in my  native language-bavarian, in the south of Germany, were the oktoberfest is.

 So far so good, but more and more I got the feeling that I have been on the same  road  for much too long, it became monotonous and i felt. nothing new, thus it began to bore me.

Then came iOS. I bought an used 3rd generation iPod touch and someone told me that it  was possible to make music with that device.

 I started with nanostudio ,the 
whole thing was so inspiring and music came to me. I was able to go in a direction i always liked but never made myself: Electronic stuff in the 
tradition of Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre and people like that. 

At the beginning of this year I tried something else...

 Peter Gabriels "Passion" 
was always a record I loved very much. So I tried to integrate world music samples into my tracks and well...it worked.

So that's where I am today, I've just released my first E.P. on bandcamp 
(martinneuhold.bandcamp.com if you're interested) , and I'm working on an album in that direction, but I'm not restricted to the ethnic/ambient thing. 

I'd say my music is an external manifestation of what resounds in my spirit, my inner self if you will. I don't just want to make music that sounds good, I aspire to make my listeners feel good too:)

Artists I like went in many different directions (Peter Gabriel, Neil Young) and  I want to do that too.  I am just curious as to where my road may take me! I feel the possibilities are endless..
