V/Vm

Leyland James Kirby

Profile: Earliest known project of James Kirby, under which he formed V/Vm Test Records and the netlabel Vukzid as a means to release his own works, as well as those of like-minded artists and collaborators. As V/Vm, he specialized in noise and plunderphonics, although his catalogue under this name is eclectic, with a wide range of approaches. Works tended to be harsh, highly experimental or otherwise confrontational.
