Description
Cold Blue was started in the early 1980s (in the days of vinyl). Through a series of 10-inch eps and 12-inch lps, the label released music by Daniel Lentz (Point Conception, After Images, etc), Peter Garland (The Matachin Dances and Three Strange Angels), Barney Childs (Clay Music), Chas Smith (Santa Fe and Beatrix), James Tenney, Ingram Marshall, Harold Budd, Michael Byron, Michael Jon Fink, Rick Cox, and others.
By the time of its demise a few years later, Cold Blue was recognized by many new-music critics as a label with a unique focus—particularly West Coast minimalism and post-minimalism.
"[Cold Blue] is an invaluable resource for what might be called part of the new ‘California School’ . . . a label with a particular viewpoint and consummate good taste." —Joan LaBarbara, High Fidelity / Musical America
