Overview
Overview
In 2000, the label signed a distribution deal with ECM, which increased the label's audience considerably. This deal came to an end early 2005. In November 2003, the label celebrated its 30th release by issuing a set that included a two-CD compilation and a book that displayed each of Kim Hiorthøy's highly praised digipak designs. An updated second edition of this was released in December 2008.
