this is the current homebase of experimental/other music label ATOPOS. it is still under development.
a- without, -topos place (topography, etc.)
ATOPOS was established in 2023 by Yvette Ofa Agapow in Magandjin (or so-called 'brisbane, australia'). It operates on two levels: as a label and as a collective heading for certain musical/social actions.
The label focusses on the release and promotion of experimental, other, noise, diy, alternative, weirdo music & sound parimarily from artists practicing in Magandjin but also sometimes elsewhere. It is the aim of the label to disseminate experimental/other music cheaply and widely - art is better shared and enjoyed together. If you just wanna listen to the releases or buy/stream with no frills click here to go to the ATOPOS bandcamp page. More information, links etc. are available in the Releases section of this website and will continue to be updated over time.
ATOPOS also functions as an outdoor performance/action series and reclaims public space through sharing diy/experimental music in non-traditional locations. Draconian decibel-limit laws, pearl-clutching conservatives, pig landlords and capitalistic venue-owners continue to decimate art and culture in this city (and probably around the continent) that even suggests a lack of concern for profit, marketability, or generally-lauded artistic practices. Choose to stand up against the tyranny of polite/uncritical society that keeps us shackled and sever your ties to the media-machines, aesthetics, and values of a world that does not care if you live or die - that does not care if you live your life with only sensation, brain on autopilot.

You can contact ATOPOS with any questions or inquiries (including those pertaining to file/tape/cd purchases, transfers or trades and also if you happen to be travelling here and want to play an ATOPOS show) through email. Most physical releases are priced from 5-15 AUD to promote accessibility + shipping costs, and we file transfer releases on a pay-what-you-can donation basis (around 5 AUD for a release is amazing, however any amount of money for any amount of the releases is perfect). If you are a radio show or even human that would like the files, really loves music, and can't afford to pay money we are happy to send these for free upon request. Don't be shy - chuck us a line :3
