Sinopse

Since its foundation in 1989, Warp Records has become a synonym for futuristic adventures in sound and vision, from 'intelligent' Techno to progressive hiphop and adventurous rock. Warp tells the story of how a small Sheffield dance label grew to foster an international range of artists including Aphex Twin, Autechre, Boards Of Canada, Broadcast, Vincent Gallo, LFO, Nightmares On Wax, Plaid, Prefuse 73, Squarepusher, Jimi Tenor and Tortoise, eventually adding film production to its list of credits with Chris Cunningham, Chris Morris and Shane Meadows. Coinciding with the rise of the internet as well as radical new music and multimedia technologies during the 1990s, which placed artistic control directly in the hands of musicians, Warp's worldwide success had much to do with its unique relationship to its artists and a determination to remain independent and in control of its own destiny. Warp features interviews, unseen photos, documents, press releases and artefacts from the label's lifespan. Also includes essays on Warp's artwork by Adrian Shaughnessy and complete discography 1989-2005.
