Black Hole Recordings Revenue and Competitors

Black Hole Recordings, founded in 1997, started with the release of Tiësto's hailed “Magik” mix compilations. The instant success of the series made it possible to expand, and in 1998 Black Hole Recordings added two new labels to their imprint: “In Trance We Trust” and “Songbird”, which became the label of choice for Tiësto's “In Search of Sunrise” series. By 2001 another label was added to the roster: “Magik Muzik”. Throughout the early days of Black Hole Recordings many now famous DJs and producers got their first break to release a DJ mix compilation. Ferry Corsten and Armin van Buuren were amongst them. Due to the success of series like “Space Age”, “Magik”, “In Trance We Trust” and most notably “In Search of Sunrise”, the star and reputation of the label rises quickly and the million-selling mixcompilations of Tiësto turn Black Hole Recordings into one of the biggest independent electronic dance labels. These achievements not only harvest important awards and nominations, but also create a wealth of opportunities. The two volumes of “Tiësto in Concert” and the album “Parade of the Athletes”, released after the successful performance of Tiësto during the 2004 Olympics in Athens are the ultimate proof that Black Hole had reached heights never before seen in the industry. After almost 15 years, Black Hole Recordings still is one of the biggest independent electronic dance labels; always on top of the game and true to its credo “Captivate, Communicate and Celebrate”!
