This is Isolated Now Waves. A label I started back in 2001 when I moved to Vancouver BC. Mostly an output to serve as an archive of sorts for the music I was making as a teenager up until that point; for me and my few friends and anybody else that would listen. Since then it’s just grown slowly over time gently getting the word out, expanding lapse into the NOW. Here we are in 2011 and INW is on it’s 250th release and it’s the 10yr anniversary! //// Myspace is dead so, since that was my main window of communication to the world (cuz I don’t have a “real” website) I felt maybe a blog would help spread the Wavezzz…???? We’ll see. So this will be where you can find all the latest INW stuff we’ve been working on.
