rumors now of it moving and reopening as "prime direct".

Prime Direct were set up a couple of months ago as a way to streamline Prime Distribution. All of the van drivers were made self employed and were allowed to sell other things aswell as Prime output. Then, Prime Direct stopped selling prime releases! and two or three weeks later Prime Distribution is no more ......

Alas, i mourn the loss of a long term friend... :cry:

So, left is Triple Vison, Neuton & Intergroove. The big guys.
Which other distributers are "still going strong", anyways?

Actually there is tons of major distributors left additional to the ones you have mentioned.

In Belgium the legendary N.E.W.S distributor

In France Cyber and Kubik

In Germany EFA, ELP and soon to take over most of Prime`s most important and best selling labels Chris Liebing`s CPL Distribution.

Also in the Netherlands there is ID&T, Mid-Town and Moxx Music.

there is also a dozen smaller distributors in Europe who do carry some good techno-house oriented labels but these productions stay more local and are harder to obtain internationaly.

I beleive that Prime did not disappear because of low sales but mostly mismanagement from what I hear or the perceptions I got.

They accumulated more and more debts to many of their exclusif labels.

This about 2 years ago since we saw a lot of established labels suddenly leaving Prime for other distributors.

This was a sign and forcast of the end of Prime all-ready a long time ago it was just a question of time and when this distributor would cease to exist.

I am hoping that CPL Distribution will be able to run things more efficiently and become as succesful, and quality oriented as Prime was.

Looking forward to a new era for Quality Techno house distribution.

Peace

THOMAS THEE TEKNOBRAT!!!

Well we know what to do don't we boys and girls? Buy more vinyl, play more techno and support the scene.

Vote techno party!

They're not massive companies, but they're still going strong in the UK: JEDI Distribution (where I get Blackoutaudio so they can't be bad ;) , and ELECTRONIK MUSIC (Squat, Getafix, Dirty Blue + various imports).

**duncandisorderly** · 16-11-2003, 01:59 PM

heard a rumour that most of the labels which prime used to distribute have found a new home. i wont say where yet as it is only a rumour but will post as soon as i get confirmation.
