About
10 vinyl releases blending krautrock, electronic, and psychedelic styles with unique pressings and steady collector demand.
BEAK> is a British group formed by three musicians from Bristol, including Geoff Barrow, co-founder of Portishead. Since their inception in 2009, they have produced a catalog of vinyl records that blend psychedelic rock textures, krautrock rhythms, and electronic experimentation. Their creative process often involves freeform improvisation, resulting in albums with immersive, layered sound motifs.
The band has released 10 vinyl records through Invada Records and Temporary Residence Limited, with essential albums such as "Beak>>" (2012), ">>>" (2018), and the upcoming ">>>>" (2024) marking key points in their discography. Collector interest remains high, especially for limited editions like the numbered pressing of "Beak>>" and deluxe versions of soundtracks.
