Aquarius Records (2)

Croatian label. Aquarius Records label was established in Zagreb, Croatia (Hrvatska) in 1995. It emerged from Club Aquarius as a result of a few music enthusiasts working with a goal to start a whole new music scene in Croatia with a series of concerts and festivals. It was shortly established as one of leading records labels in Croatian discography. A careful selection of original and quality performers is the main criteria of discography development in Aquarius Records, and have received more than 200 Porin discography awards throughout the years. Today they are proud publishers of such performers as Oliver Dragojević, Nina Badrić, Massimo, Tedi Spalato, Tamara Obrovac, Marko Tolja, Cubismo, Ivana & Marija Husar, Šajeta, Songkillers, and many other respectable musicians that have also had numerous achievements outside of Croatia. Special attention is given to numerous Croatian musicians that specialize in classical and jazz music, folklore, Croatian ethno music, and editions of so called "music institutions" such as the Lado Ensemble, and the Zagreb Philharmonic Orchestra. In addition, they also focus on finding/promoting young and original musicians in the field of club, alternative, and ethno music. For many years they had Universal Music as licensing partners, today being license partners of IRMA, Putumayo, Compost, Multimedia Records, Hayat Production, and ECM.
