Subkulture is a production label and non-profit organization, specializing in dark alternative music from Asia to the world.
Past
Subkulture began as the first roving goth club in Metro Manila, The Philippines. Exclusively playing Gothic and industrial music to a small but growing audience in the 1990s, these series of shows spurred the emergence of the nascent Gothic lifestyle which was non-existent at that time, having adhered to a significant following, the birth of more elaborate shows and growing numbers caught the attention of the mainstream media and eventually the acceptance of the genre by the masses and corporate sponsorships.
The label is credited for the wider acceptance and mainstream appeal of Goth and industrial events in Manila without commercializing it. Fliers promoting events produced by Subkulture note they are benefits.
The Eternal Death Wake (EDW) Music Festival primarily known as The Eastern Goth Valley is consideredSubkulture's most significant event and one of Manila's top Halloween parties to be in; it has pioneered the import of foreign Goth and industrial acts such as The Angina Pectoris (Germany), Eve of Destiny (Japan), Kozi (Japan), Roughhausen (Canada / Taiwan ), Dj Eiji (Japan), Haruhiko Ash (Japan), DJ Nekrokael (France)) and Psydoll (Japan); it has been sponsored by the likes of Jack Daniels, Axe Cologne and Southern Comfort. It is the Asian Gothic Festival vision of Japan's Haruhiko Ash and Philippine's Doi Porras as inspired from Germany's Wave Gotik Treffen, a festival which in EDW's co-founder, Haruhiko Ash frequently played at.
Subkulture is also noted to help advance the careers of many young acts in the Philippines.
