[Substrata.] is an international experimental music/sound art label and research platform based in Mexico City curated and run by the Mexican researcher and activist Alfredo Gallardo.

Substrata's approach to music and sound art management comes from a non-adaptative ethic that leads to the publishing of experimental artists that their oeuvre borders a non genre music but that have closeness to sonorities as contemporary composition, noise, drone, sound art, ambient, free improv and electroacoustic music

Under the focus into media archaeology the label works as an hybrid project taking form into a traditional label publishing in such compact disc, cassette, vinyl, and also unique pieces and works also as non traditional net-label.

Substrata. periodically publish SUSTAIN, publication that focus on contemporary art manifestations, critical theory, media archaeology and culture in relationship with sonic phenomena. The platform also organizes the annual contemporary sound art, critical theory, and acoustic image cycle SUSTAIN in which artists from all over the world and Mexico takes part in a kind of anti-festival in which concerts, urban interventions, radio interventions, conferences, lectures, performances among other activities takes place.

Substrata. collaborates with artists, curators, collectives, institutions, museums and galleries in order to open spaces for the experimental sound arts in Mexico and Latin America.
