Rape Art Productions is an Ecuadorian independent record label founded in 2002. Rape Art Productions is specialized in subgenres of extreme experimental music such as Power electronics, Dark Ambient and Noise. Rape Art Productions also acts as a mail order catalogue dedicated to the same subgenres of extreme music.
While most extreme music labels are hailing from Europe or North America, Rape Art Productions is a rare exception. The label is active from the city of Latacunga located in the Andean Altiplano.
Rape Art Productions has produced, since 2002, more than 30 releases. Artists released on this label are among the most famous from the extreme music scene. They include, for instance, the very famous conceptual noise makers The Haters or the Harsh noise music project Stimbox. Also from the US, Panicsville has released a CD on Rape Art Production in 2003. Many famous Japanese noisemakers have also been released, they include Daruin, the seminal band Dissecting Table, Government alpha and Astro. In 2006, Rape Art Productions released a very limited CD by the Japanese cyberpunk author Kenji Siratori. Other projects on this label include the Norwegian artists, Lasse Marhaug and Atrox as well as projects by Noiseman433 and Sikhara both collaborators of Can's Holger Czukay and Damo Suzuki.
