The Los Hermanos of Rolando and Mitchell is trademarked as the label

Hmmmm, in dance music terms the distinction is a little vague at
times, no? Underground Resistance is a good example...
Well i didn't want to turn this thread into a discussion about
trademarks. I tried to say that it looked like it wasn't a Detroit Los
Hermanos record and that people use same names all the time. Yes that
isn't nice, some where in the mid-ninties i recorded some stuff for
Djax under the name of Dash, 2 or 3 years later a Tresor Dj called Dash
showed up... well sh*t happens :) Just recently I-F stopped his
residency at club Nitsche (SP?) in Barcelona and a few months later
another DJ from that club starts playing under the name of Ferenc and
recording records, lame thing to do but hey it happens and isn't there
a canadian guy who makes techno under a name that looks a lot like
Derrick May? There is also an IDM artist called Donna Summer :)
Besides from that I-F thing, i really don't care that much, i would be
to busy being angry about those thing, rather listen to good music :)
