Andy Maddocks
Template:Short description Template:DMCA Template:DMCA Andy Maddocks is an English entrepreneur and musician. He was instrumental in the foundation of Skam Records,[1][2] a Manchester-based independent electronic label, in the early 1990s.[3][4] He is also a member of the collaborative, electronic music project Gescom together with Darrell Fitton, Russell Haswell, and Rob Hall.[1]
Skam records
Maddocks founded Skam records (naming it as an acronym for Some Knowledge About Music) in 1990 or 1991, though the label did not become especially active until 1994.[4][3] Skam's first twelve-inch single was a self-titled debut from Lego Feet (a predecessor to British electronic music duo Autechre).[5] The label followed with two 12" EP records from Gescom. [4] Skam entered the full-length album market in 1998 with the releases of Soup by Bola, a stage name used by Darrell Fitton[6][7] and the album Music Has the Right to Children by Boards of Canada,[6] the latter being jointly released with Warp Records.
As a solo act, Maddocks performed live on the second day of the first Coachella music festival in October of 1999. [8] Other artists affiliated with Skam records also performed that day, including Autechre, Jega and Push Button Objects.[8]
