one, yet another netlabel

"One, like its site modestly states, is yet another netlabel. Launched on 31 December 2003 by former members of Dot9, a collective founded in 2000 by 5 Canadians and 4 Americans - the label knows how to gather an eclectic roster of genres stamped with the same atmosphere, united in a harmonious auditory aesthetic despite its diversity.

Electronic though it may be, one passes unencumbered through ambient, downtempo, minimal techno and post-rock. The merry world clumsily encompassed by the catch-all term IDM, even. It's worth noting that the genres are mixed well, not just from one artist to the other, but also within single releases.

Covering their first two years of existence (2004, 2005) is a complete torrent of their first twenty albums, including artwork and various comments, available on LegalTorrents. For serious music lovers, more releases from the now-defunct Dot9 are also available, of which there's a collaborative album as experimental as it is a pleasure to listen to."
