| Rastascan Records is an artist-run label that began with the release
of a flexi-disc by the
Anything Goes Orchestra in the early '80s, sent to subscribers of OP magazine (and later to subscribers
of Option magazine). The label's name derives from the term "raster scan", the
technology used for displaying images on a CRT screen.
Over the next four decades,
Rastascan has released dozens of recordings of improvisational
and experimental music by artists such as
Derek Bailey,
Anthony Braxton,
John Butcher,
Eugene Chadbournel,
Peter Kowald,
Evan Parker,
Hans Reichel,
the Rova Saxophone Quartet, and the
Splatter Trio.
