Boring Machines is the Treviso-based independent label run by Andrea Ongarato, known as Onga. It began in 2006 with My Dear Killer's Clinical Shyness, following Ongarato's earlier involvement in concerts, radio and other labels. A subsequent encounter with Be Invisible Now! helped establish the project's interest in kosmische music and electronic experimentation.
The catalogue includes Heroin in Tahiti, Father Murphy, Mai Mai Mai, Luciano Maggiore and Simon Balestrazzi, moving between altered song forms, noise, drone and psychedelic music. It has been associated with Italian occult psychedelia, although its releases extend beyond that description. Ongarato's interviews place the artist relationship and the decision to make a particular record at the centre of the label. Publishing images, books and other objects adds a visual and material dimension to that recording activity.
