about

Since 2016, One Instrument releases annual compilations of compositions created by different artists. “Year 2022” is the 7th annual Various Artists release.
This yearly celebration is a good moment to remember the concept and background of the label and how it started.

In 2016, Grand River aka Aimée Portioli kicked off One Instrument the record label where she releases sound experiments from different artists composing pieces by using only one instrument, challenging and limiting each of the artists in producing a composition by using only this one instrument of their choice.

She shares that One Instrument started as a need for herself. She had a Korg MS-20 (the 1978 version) in her studio which she borrowed from a friend for quite a while. At the same time, she was finding herself switching too quickly from one instrument to another while composing. That’s when she decided to stick with one instrument for a whole composition and choose the MS-20 to do that. For the musician, it was extremely helpful to put some limits on the composition process and at the same time discovering that the instruments itself deserve to be explored and studied with more time and patience.

Besides the yearly compilations the label has released 16 physical and digital releases among which we can find the albums of Donato Dozzy, Felicity Mangan, Rezo Glonti, Daniele Di Gregorio, Bandhagens Musikförening, Darwin Grosse, Neel and many others.
