Interesting life span of this label. Founded in 1995 and the two most prolific years for releases were 1998 and 1999. Then nothing at all after 1999. The last release One - Dream Forever was just a promo which hardly anyone seems to own. There are no videos of it on the net and I would be very keen to hear what it sounds like.
I wonder what happened. Looks like the label went bust suddenly or maybe the owners lost interest. I do like the general sound. There is a nice and distinct melodic feel to some of the releases. Not quite the mainstream sound of trance from the time and with a nice underground and innovative edge. Some psy elements too especially with the earlier releases. The name "Aquarius" sounds nice too!
My favourite track is Zenith - Flip De Trax (Swan remix). Luckily a lot of the releases from 1999 were featured on the CD Pool compilations and so are available in clean digital format and preserved for posterity.
