Brown Note Records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brown Note Records is an independent record label based in Hong Kong. It was founded in 2002 by members of Spermatic Chord.
Originally the label was created for the purpose of releasing albums by Spermatic Chord and by its member's derivative side projects. Over time, they have expanded to also distribute music by other independent music artists both within and outside Hong Kong.
The label is named after the legendary "Brown note", an infrasonic frequency that according to urban myths causes humans to lose control of their bowels due to resonance.
