FILMguerrero is an independent record label based in Portland, Oregon. It was founded in 1998 by John Askew as a way to release "Ames", the debut album by Askew's studio project Tracker (band). Since then, the label (also known as "Film G" [http://www.indiemusicportland.com/category/podcasts/] , or simply "Fg" [http://www.sctas.com/21/MENOMENA.html] ) has gone on to release CDs, LPs and EPs by a number of different artists [http://www.filmg.com/?cat=10] . Askew describes the label as "a collective" or, "...an artist-run label, to make sure that the bands get a fair deal and a good representation of what their overall vision is" [http://www.inmusicwetrust.com/articles/58h06.html] .
