Denovali

Denovali Records is an independent music label founded in 2005. Not confined to one singular specific genre the expert programming of Denovali varies from experimental, ambient, drone, jazz, neo-classical composition, sound design and anything in-between that carries integrity and emotive characteristics. The labels vision and manifesto places overarching precedence on each piece of art “being complete” in that the curation, artwork, copy, packaging and minutae that others may deem as tertiary are considered critical components for every individual release such that a “coherent piece of art” is borne. 

There is an assuring halo of humbleness surrounding the label in that there is an apparent lack of self-centred editorial pieces and gratuitous interviews which offers real insight to the calibre of the art-centric stakeholders that curate the label from within. As an outsider writing this short hagiographical piece its comforting when Im forced to dig harder as that infers this is an institution that prefers to let the art communicate without distraction. Providing a platform for composers such as Greg Haines, John Lemke, Orson Hentschel & Ricardo Donoso, the label has an overwhelming array of over 300 releases under its belt and shows no signs of fatiguing, equally the label is a firm favourite with global selectors and sync creatives with placements in the cult series The Dark and in premium campaigns for Vogue, Chanel and Ford for example.
