Overview
Euphonic Records is a German independent record label dedicated almost entirely to trance music. It was founded in spring 1997 by the producers Ralph Kyau and Steven Moebius Albert, and its name derives from the term "Euphonie" (euphony, or pleasant sound). The label grew out of Harmony Recordings, a vinyl label that had existed since 1994. Its headquarters are located in the Saxon town of Löbau. From the beginning, Euphonic released music by Kyau & Albert's own trance project alongside records by artists such as Sonorous, Ronski Speed and Mirco de Govia. Over the following decade, further artists joined the roster, including Stoneface & Terminal and Marc Marberg. The label also developed a close working relationship with Anjunabeats, releasing Above & Beyond's music exclusively in Germany, while Kyau & Albert's records appeared in the United Kingdom on a British label. Beyond its release schedule, Euphonic promoted its sound through events. In 2004 and 2005 it held a monthly party in Berlin called "euphonic night", featuring the label's own DJs plus a guest DJ each time, among them Ben Lost, Above & Beyond and Super8. In later years the Berlin euphonic nights took place only irregularly. The label remains a recognizable name in the European trance scene, associated with melodic, uplifting and progressive trance.
History
Euphonic Records was founded in spring 1997 by the producers Ralph Kyau and Steven Moebius Albert. The name is derived from "Euphonie", meaning euphony or pleasant sound. The label emerged from Harmony Recordings, a vinyl label that had been active since 1994, and it retained a focus on vinyl releases in its early years. Its releases are almost exclusively trance, and the company is based in Löbau, Saxony. From the outset, the label served as an outlet for Kyau & Albert's own trance project while also releasing music by Sonorous, Ronski Speed and Mirco de Govia. Over the following decade the roster expanded to include artists such as Stoneface & Terminal and Marc Marberg. Euphonic also built a close partnership with the British label Anjunabeats, handling Above & Beyond's releases exclusively in Germany, while Kyau & Albert's records were issued in the United Kingdom by a British label. In 2004 and 2005, Euphonic ran a monthly event in Berlin called "euphonic night". The parties featured the label's own DJs and a guest DJ each time, with guests including Ben Lost, Above & Beyond and Super8. In subsequent years the Berlin euphonic nights became irregular rather than monthly. The label has remained active in the trance scene, maintaining its association with Kyau & Albert and its catalog of melodic trance releases.
