King Vision Ultra
PTP, also known as Purple Tape Pedigree, is an American artist collective and independent record label based in New York City. PTP has been called "New York’s experimental incubator", and the collective has released recordings named among the best in new experimental, hip hop, metal, avant-garde, and electronic music. Pitchfork noted that "PTP's mission seems to be to annihilate genre boundaries and revel in the brilliant debris", and VICE has called PTP "home to some of the most boundary pushing music being made".
Artist Geng (stylized GENG PTP) founded the collective as a media platform in 2009, with label operations beginning in 2012. Artists associated with PTP include Dreamcrusher, YATTA, Dis Fig, Armand Hammer, Saint Abdullah, Celestial Trax, Among The Rocks And Roots, DeForrest Brown Jr. (also known as Speaker Music), H31R (the duo of maassai and JWords), madam data, Amani, photographer Richard R. Ross, and Geng, who also performs and records as King Vision Ultra.
PTP's projects include Silent Weapons, a live performance series raising money for causes including prison abolition and immigrant rights.
