filter music

The label was launch in 2004 by Jean-Francois Ponthieux to expose eclectic music in Australia / New Zealand.

Our selection process is based upon the how-does-the-music-make-you-feel factor.

If a track gives us a-shiver-down-the-spine, its on the playlist.



We focus on quality compilation albums (So Frenchy So Chic, Coup D'etat.) and artist releases (Nouvelle Vague, Syd Matters, Fela Kuti, Rachid Taha, Souad Massi, Bebel Gilberto, Zenzile, Orange Blossom.).



Filter music, an independant division of Shock records, also represents these labels in Australia & New Zealand
