Imputor?
Imputor? is an independent record label founded in 1999 by Darrin Wiener (aka Plastiq Phantom) and Jordan Snodgrass. Originally based in both Seattle and San Diego, Imputor? began releasing experimental electronic music (also known as Intelligent dance music or IDM), and has since expanded into styles such as Indie rock and Comedy. Imputor? has since moved its base of operations to Portland, Oregon.
History
The duo had first met 7 years earlier while attending high-school together in Vista, CA, a suburb located in North San Diego County.
The name Imputor? is said to be a made-up contraction of the phrase "I am a computer." It was inspired by the title track Select Imputor? from Plastiq Phantom's debut CD-R EP which was released by the label in 1999.
The official logo of the label is a 5.25" floppy disk, a nostalgic relic from the founders' childhood exposure to computers.
In addition to releasing its own records, Imputor? has distributed other labels including Neverstop, Razler Records, and Mass Mvmnt

Empty Air
by: Flotsam And JetsamFeeling shellshocked
Barbedwire, I'm torn apart
Warheads dead ends
Parties only we attend
The runaround, out of ground
Your god damned sympathy
Wears me down!
I've spent my life
Reaching out to empty air
Slipping faster all the time
But no one seems to care!
Concrete breaks my fall
Trouble ten stories tall
Sunshine, I can't sleep
Just like my life on TV
Church bells drowning me out
My ears ring, your favorite sound!
Clench my fists to strands
That really don't exist
I try not to fool myself
But still I cant resist!
I've spent my life
Reaching out to empty air
Slipping faster all the time
But no one seems to care!
Clench my fists to strands
That really don't exist
I try not to fool myself
But still I cant resist!
Blood born my loss
Nailed to more than
Just a cross
Driven hard, brick fence
My twenty first second chance
Shellshocked
Barbedwire
Warheads
Your god damned sympathy
Concrete ten stories tall
Feeling shellshocked
Empty air
Empty air
