Latency

Latency is an independent record label and curatorial platform established in 2013 in Paris by Souleymane Said and Sidney Gerard. The label delves into a vast musical spectrum in dialogue with art and performance. Latency has published diverse works from artists such as Laurel Halo (USA), virtuoso percussionist Mohammad Reza Mortazavi (Iran), Australian duo HTRK, and German electronic pioneer Moritz von Oswald.

Over the past decade, Latency has curated concerts and dance parties at various events and venues like Villa Medici in Rome, Paris Pantheon, Berlin Atonal, Marian Goodman Gallery, Pioneer Works in New York, and Bourse de Commerce, among others. Latency’s distinctive aesthetic is reflected in their collaboration with contemporary artists for cover art, including Louise Lawler, Jill Mulleady, Samia Halaby, Slavs & Tatars, and Marguerite Humeau.

Beyond its role as a record label, Latency extends its music curation across diverse media, brands, and events, encompassing films, fashion, and art installations.
