    Default Alphamagic taking over the Hard Trance scene?

    I think so! They are a driving force in what we know to be Hard Trance.

    Without them we wouldnt have labels like:

    Difuse, Sectioned, Endeavour, Active Media, Bulletproof, United Nations, Rising High, Mohawk, Phantom Trax....and about 100 more!

    When it comes to danglies, I think these guys are the dogs! :clap:

    Yeah man! I heard about that aswell!

    Sharkey told me that Alpha nearly bankrupted him! I think they may have also been responsible fo UK44 Shuttin-up shop!!!! dont quote me on that though.

    They seem to be in the habit of not paying the labels the money they owe. Problem is, now that Infectious is gone, they're pretty much the only UK distributor left that has global distribution and will handle hard music, no?

    Not familiar with them? Who are they? Can you give me some info about them - website, that kind of thing? (Sorry, I'm from Canada. Don't know too much about UK distributors, only the ones i've been involved with.)
