One of the most remarkable aspects of this golden label has been the label's continued ability to keep inovative, to stay at the cutting edge of dance music and carry on producing and releasing futurisitc and yet commercially successful dance music. The
label has been in low activities during 15 years and reappered in early 90 with the
releases of confidential re-Editions on their 12" catalogue. After 98's miami Winter
Conference; with the collaboration between Mel and... Kenton Nix this legendary label has
been re-activated for real. The first result of the re-activation is Taana Gardner's "I'm
Coming" in november '98. |
