Record Label
"[[label:Digital Hardcore Recordings Ltd.]]" (DHR) was founded in January 1994 by [[artist:Alexander Wilke]] ([[artist:Alec Empire]]) and Peter Lawton in London, UK. It was distributed via DMD and S.R.D. Direct distribution was undertaken by [[label:Midi War]]/[DHR-Mailorder](http://www.discogs.com/label/Not+On+Label+%28DHR+Mailorder+Tapes%29) from Berlin in 1995-97, subsequently from the London office. For countries outside the UK DHR releases are often licensed to different labels, such as [AlterNation](http://www.discogs.com/label/Alternation+%282%29) for continental Europe, [[label:Grand Royal]] for North America and [[label:Beat Records]] for Japan. In 2007 Alec Empire put DHR on hold to focus on his newly founded label [[label:Eat Your Heart Out]], reserving DHR for re-releases, as well as new Atari Teenage Riot material following their reactivation in 2010.
