Andy Maddocks
Andy Maddocks is an English entrepreneur and musician. He was central to the foundation of Skam Records, a Manchester-based independent electronic label, in the early 1990s. He is also a member of the collaborative project Gescom with Darrell Fitton, Russell Haswell, and Rob Hall.
Skam records
Maddocks founded Skam records (naming it as an acronym for Some Knowledge About Music) in 1990 or 1991. Skam's first 12-inch single was a self-titled debut from Lego Feet (a predecessor to British electronic music duo Autechre). The label followed with two 12" records from Gescom. Skam entered the full-length album market in 1998 with the releases of Soup by Bola, a stage name used by Darrell Fitton and Music Has the Right to Children by Boards of Canada, the latter being jointly released with Warp Records.
