About
"Digital Hardcore Recordings Ltd." (DHR) was founded in January 1994 by Alexander Wilke (Alec Empire) and Peter Lawton in London, UK. It was distributed via DMD and S.R.D. Label code: LC 11028 Direct distribution was undertaken by Midi War/DHR-Mailorder 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 for continental Europe, Grand Royal for North America and Beat Records for Japan. In 2007 Alec Empire put DHR on hold to focus on his newly founded label Eat Your Heart Out, reserving DHR for re-releases, as well as new Atari Teenage Riot material following their reactivation in 2010.
