started as an online collective by members of CPUWAR and DJ RABIES as the
beginnings of an international network of exciting and extreme electronic
music artists. In 2000, the group formed into an official record label,
headed by D-TRASH artist SCHIZOID, the label now coming forth with pressed
CD releases for sale in stores; as well, continuing the practice of releases
of full-length albums through the internet as MP3 for download. The label
sprouted with artists based in many parts of the world, whose material was
getting such acclaim and press from KERRANG, TERRORIZER, ROCK SOUND, and
