Re: (313) Huge discography (was too quiet? too pac!)
Aren't a majority of their releases licensed from other labels though? Should have made it clearer that I was talking about labels that have *original* releases. There's tons of labels that have made their entire business out of licensing. It's easier to release music that way - all the artist development is done for you. Let someone else do the A&R part. But you're right ZYX's discog is massively huge and they've covered the spectrum of electronic music too MEK atomly <[EMAIL PROTECTED] m> To 313@hyperreal.org 12/17/2004 04:49 cc PM Subject Re: (313) Huge discography (was too quiet? too pac!)

Tresor has around the same as Djax-Up-Beats (Tresor proper has just under 220). Dance Mania has 284 and is no longer in business. Strictly Rhythm has ___WAY___ more (~700) than either, but they're not longer in business. By far the most releases I know of on any "electronic" label, though, is ZYX.

zyx doesn't count much as it didn't had any specific direction, it was (or still is?) just a license dump. ronny atomly wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] what other dance/electronic labels are up around there (and still in operation)?
