Moving Furniture Records is a label based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands specialized in releasing experimental electronic run by Sietse van Erve, started in October 2008. The label has a strong focus on drones, experimental ambient, minimalist, microtonal and field-recordings music, but we don’t limit us to this.

Moving Furniture Records has released music by both renowned, musicians such as Frans de Waard, Gareth Davis & Merzbow, BJNilsen and Machinefabriek, as (young) new talent such as Find Hope In Darkness, Zeno van den Broek, Bas van Huizen, Rose & Sandy and Haarvöl.

Since 2018 Moving Furniture Records has a small sublabel called Eliane Tapes on which music is released dedicated to and inspired by the work of Eliane Radigue.
The first release was by Kassel Jaeger and many more are planned for 2018 and 2019.

Further, we do organize shows in Amsterdam, mostly with a focus on electronic and electro-acoustic music. In the past, we also put on shows for psychedelic and experimental guitar music, but currently we don’t have plans do so.
In our series Ruisburo at De Ruimte we also work with New Emergences to promote more diversity in experimental (electronic) music.


Demo policy (updated February 7th, 2024)

This is for our regular series and contemporary series.

Our schedule is full until the end of 2025, and we are not looking for new music or musicians for 2026.

As such, we don’t accept any demos.

When you want to submit something for the Eliane Tapes series please submit only music which was really recorded specifically for this series, in dedication to and directly inspired by the work of Eliane Radigue. Please explain in your e-mail how Eliane Radigue inspired you for this specific work, why her music is important to you and why you think this should fit in the series.

You want to play in Amsterdam?

At this moment, I can’t help you with live shows in Amsterdam. We are waiting on funding for next year, and as long as we don’t have this we won’t do any shows.

Otherwise, please check with the venues in Amsterdam that you like if they can help you.
