ID&T LABEL CLOSES

Don't worry Marco it'll be alright in the end mate. Words: Terry Church

From 2005, Dutch dance music superpower ID&T will close down its record label. The company has decided to focus its efforts on media and club events instead.

The label, best known for catapulting the careers of Marco V and Rank 1 has been responsible for some of the most defining dance music of the decade.

Current head of A&R at ID&T Dick De Groot has decided to set up a new label called Be Yourself Music. He takes with him Marco V, Rank 1, Benjamin Bates, Paul Van Dyk (Benelux only), Marcel Woods and the Subliminal label along with the entire ID&T back catalogue.

Dick De Groot assured DJmag that the closure of the label had nothing to do with falling record sales. “The label was doing very well and was making a lot of money,” said Dick. “But ID&T runs a very successful radio station and magazine too and so experienced conflicts of interest. Other labels complained that ID&T radio and magazine only promoted ID&T music. So, it made sense to make the label a separate company altogether.”

ja ist wohl schade... aber auch eigentlich die einzig logische konsequenz! die artists werden schon andere labels finden und machen wir uns nichts vor... man hat es id&t doch in letzter zeit schon angemerkt, dass die sich mehr und mehr auf events etc spezialisieren. sollen sie machen, denn sie machen es ja gut!
