The label

The RANDOM ACOUSTICS publishing house was founded in Cologne in 1993 by Georg Graewe, who, since 1974 had enjoyed an international reputation as composer, pianist and ensemble leader. Initially the label was founded in order to realise his first three publications. These first publications made the label instantly known and the international press reacted enthusiastically to the extraordinarily high artistic standard and the exquisite set up.

From catalogue number 004 onwards, Herr Graewe has changed over to producing almost exclusively other artists on his label, and meanwhile, with a catalogue of some 24 productions, a series of leading international personalities of current music. The publisher's programme includes electronic music as well as contemporary chamber music, new jazz, and of course cross-overs in these areas.

During recording sessions with the Italian trombonist, Sebi Tramontana, Georg Graewe met the sound engineer Gottfried Dueren, and as part of subsequent discussions the idea developed to operate in future with combined resources and to relocate to Munich.

The new label's programme will continue to evolve in its internationalism, its extremely high artistic and technical quality, and high repertory value.
