DMMG Management & Promotions (International Artist and Band Management, and Talent Development Label). Artists/Bands included in the past; Shadowsphere, and Sylvana White.
DMMG Gigs & Tours (here is where you can find out about both one off gigs/concerts we organise (through DMMG Management & Promotion) and tours for artists and bands who are either signed to our management label or have a dual contract with both our management and record labels.
DMMG Distro, this is our in-house distribution label for all of our merchandise and products, including our music, videos, and multi-media.
Dark & Wise Recordings, is our compilation music label, originally founded as a cassette tape compilation label, it's aim was to support bands in the alternative and underground scenes through the release of compilation cassettes of various bands we like as an extension of Cyrkel Spynn Fanzine/Cyrkel Spynn Magazine.
Altar-Ego Music, this was our audio music and music video and film publishing label, aimed at being an extension of AEM Records our first actual record label. And is now our music publishing label for both DMMG Records and Seventh Hell Recordings.
AEM Records was our first attempt at launching a record label, originally signed to the band was Stoke on Trent Gothic Rock band - Lupine, and we had plans to sign other artists/bands, however when we found out their was another record label with the same name, we closed down the label, so there would be no clash of interests between us and the other label of the same name.
DMMG Records, again another of our record labels, that was prominent between 2006 and 2014, the first band to be signed to DMMG Records was Sheffield female fronted punk band Leather Zoo, however they shelved when they defaulted on their record contract through breach of copyright concerning the online publishing of music that DMMG Records had paid for during professional studio recording session with both Woodman Recording Studios and Axis Recording Studios. Later DMMG Records released several CD Albums, CD EP's, with also online/download streaming for the later album and EP releases for artists such as; Steve Andrew aka the Bard of Ely, PRANA, and Koradji, while with DMMG Records the artists also gained much acclaim and DMMG Records got songs included on several Movie Original Soundtracks which Chemical Burn Entertainment, and others. DMMG Records have also recently added M&S Phenomena (Sheffield, UK) to the label roster.
Seventh Hell Recordings, our sister record label to DMMG Records, SHR only released one album a re-release of the band Orchis's album Phoenix Trees. With recently the addition of HexenBlut UK (Sheffield, UK) and now also Chaos Bleak (Nottingham, UK) now on the label roster.
