Definitive and comprehensive, this is the actual story of Factory RecordsPeter SavilleIn 1978, a Factory for Sale sign gave Alan Erasmus and Tony Wilson a name for their fledgling Manchester club night. Though they couldn t have known it at the time, this was the launch of one of the most significant musical and cultural legacies of the late twentieth century. The clubs electrifying live scene soon translated to vinyl, and Factory Records went on to become the most innovative and celebrated record label of the next thirty years.Always breaking new musical ground, Factory introduced the listening public to bands such as Joy Division, whose Unknown Pleasures was the labels first album release, New Order, Durutti Column and Happy Mondays. Propelled onwards by the inspirational cultural entrepreneur, Tony Wilson, Factory always sought new ways to energise the popular consciousness, such as the infamous Hacienda nightclub, which enjoyed a chequered 15-year history after opening in 1982.Now fully revised and expanded with a new chapter, Shadowplayers is the most complete, authoritative and thoroughly researched account of how a group of provincial anarchists and entrepreneurs saw off bankers, journalists and gun-toting gangsters to create the most influential record label of modern times. Based on both archive and contemporary sources, the book tells the full story of Factory s heroic struggles, its complex web of inventive, idiosyncratic and tragic personalities, and ultimately, the acclaimed and much-loved music it produced.

37 years of jazz history. The Zurich label Intakt Records reflects musical and social developments and presents counter-worlds. As early as the 1980s, female jazz musicians brought their feminist protest to the stage. Louis Moholo and Irene Schweizer played drums and piano for the liberation of South Africa. Patrik Landolt, the founder of Intakt Records, visited pianist Cecil Taylor and guitarist Elliott Sharp in New York, when the Twin Towers were attacked. His chronicle of music production describes the adventures of Intakt Records, tells of the stubborn struggle for the survival of a creative minority culture and also of the luck of being out in the open with this music. A new generation has been running the jazz label since 2022. In this English translation, Florian Keller from the Intakt team adds an epilogue to the chronicle.
