i can see why this sub section of bedrock folded, as this particular sound had certainly had its day by 2002. However this doesnt mean that the quality of the music suffers as a result.
what we have here are some forgotten underground gems from an era that has long been and gone! if you like the minimal/ more tribal sound of progressive house then you are in for a real treat! spacey melodies, echoing cries, worldly sfx and an overall feeling of pending doom are the basis for most of these records.
who knows...maybe one day this sound will come full circle once again!

Everything seems right here for me. People, who don't have bad monkey instinct, will buy what they want. I hope there are such people in this world.

I became intimately familiar with this label without ever buying anything, seeing as how their records remained on the record store shelf week after week. This Bedrock offshoot aimed to deliver a super-polished mix of tribal grooves, prog-house tempos and lots of wooshing and swooshing, and came up with a handful of singularly drab and uninspiring tunes. Dark drums were "in" for a while, but it seems this label was too late on the scene, as it folded up almost instantly. As an added bonus, the bizarre grey-on-black design of these records meant that if you dared to buy one of them, you'd be holding it up to your nose and squinting really hard that night up in the DJ booth.
In my humble opinion, a case of style over substance, a handful of clunkers now gathering dust.
