With Interscope, Dreamworks and Maverick from their inception to present day, showing all the potential to follow suit. <br> <br> There are a few things these labels have in common, one of which is they have been shaped by the owner / label head. Another is that these labels signed and developed artists that were not necessarily just of their time, but often ahead of their time. They have signed significant artists. They had hit records, with a wide scope of music that went top 40 both in the USA & UK, as well as around the world. However, even if all their artists did not chart, they often released important records that have had a profound effect on db. <br> <br> So inspired by these creative people, db records was formed in September of 1998. We hope to find artists that we love both in terms of recording and as people. Artists that are interesting, intelligent, musical, with strong song writing, impressive as a live entity, great singer, star quality, image conscious, ever developing, challenging, newsworthy, prolific, hard working. With a very strong desire to succeed. In turn the artist will find a creative home and gain all the experience that has been acquired over the past 23 years in A&R. With the care, the time and devotion needed to help develop their careers. In recent years there has been a lack of success abroad by British artists, this label hopes to make a difference and overcome the world's indifference.<br> <br> <b>What Musical genre?</b><br> <br> Guitar to Big Beat to Acoustic to Hip Hop to Nu Beat To Electronic to Singer/Songwriter to World Music.<br> <br> <b>What artists?</b><br> <br> DJ Shadow to Beta Band to UNKLE to Lamb to Fatboy Slim to DJ Krush to Prince, Fun Lovin’ Criminals to Beastie Boys to De La Soul to Jurrasic Five, REM to U2 to Radiohead to Pearl Jam to Verve to Stone Roses, Elliot Smith to Tom Waits to Tim Buckley to Nick Drake to Beck to Neil Young to Mercury Rev, Eels to Blue Nile to Mark Hollis to Portishead, TJ Remi to Rachid Taha to Cheb Khaled to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.</p></span></td> </tr> </table> </center> </body>
