History Music / PCMusic

PC Music is a London-based online record label and art collective, composed of artists of various types of {{Electronic|Music}} and {{Pop}} music. Founded in 2013 by A.G. Cook in the wake of a previous "pseudo-label" called [[http://gamsonite.tumblr.com Gamsonite]], the label has since introduced several members who have been steadily releasing music under the name, including Hannah Diamond, GFOTY, Danny L. Harle, EASYFUN, Life Sim, and more.

He has released solo music -- original work as well as mixes and edits -- for the label under his own name, as well as pseudonyms including Life Sim, DJ Warlord, and DJ Lifeline. He's also one half of acts such as Dux Content (with Danny L. Harle, which precedes PC Music's inception), Lipgloss Twins (with felicita), Thy Slaughter (with EASYFUN), and Boys Next Door (with Music/OneohtrixPointNever).\\

As a collective, PC Music is… [[QuirkyWork weird]]. While there is diversity from its various artists and collaborative acts, PC Music in general is infamous for its uniquely post-ironic aesthetic, typically exaggerating traits of 2000's commercial-era pop and electronic music to hyper-real, almost-parodic lengths, often featuring amatuer vocalists with pitch-shifted vocals to give a strange dissonance to the artificial cuteness of their genres. Many of the acts are aliases of unconfirmed origin, some of whom might just be [[IHaveManyNames different stage names of other artists]], and even those who are confirmed to be real tend to have an air of surreal murkiness to the way they present themselves.

In 2014 and 2015, many of the label's acts and affiliates, including Cook, {{Music/Sophie}}, QT, GFOTY, Hannah Diamond, etc. made their live debuts [[http://sxsw.pcmusic.info/ at South by Southwest]], as well as Pop Cube in 2015 as part of the Red Bull Music Academy Festival. In May 2015, the label released a compilation album titled ''PC Music Volume 1'', as well as ''PC Music Volume 2'' in November 2016. During May 2017, the label hosted a "Month of Mayhem", daily releasing brand-new material for its duration, which would be released in compiled format later on. ''PC Music Volume 3'' would be released in May 2023.
