Projekt Records is an independent record label established by Sam Rosenthal in 1983,[1] the label focuses on darkwave, ambient, shoegaze, gothic rock, ethereal, dream-pop, and dark cabaret releases.
History
Projekt was founded in 1983 by Sam Rosenthal, as a record label concentrated on releasing dream-pop, neoclassical, ambient, gothic rock and shoegaze bands, including Rosenthal's own group, Black Tape for a Blue Girl.[2]
Projekt: Darkwave
In 1993, the label expanded to include Projekt: Darkwave, a mail-order company for both the label's own music and for other labels with a similar ethos and approach, among them Tess Records and Hyperium Records.[3]
Projektfest
Projekt Records also presents Projektfest, a semi-annual festival of gothic and ethereal music, primarily featuring Projekt artists. In 1996, Projektfest ran for two days in Chicago. In 1997, Chicago hosted the festival again, followed a few weeks later by another day of performances in Mexico City. In 1998, Projektfest ran a series of four one-day events in Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, and New York City. The 2002 Projektfest was held over three days in Philadelphia, at the Trocadero Theatre and other sites. Projekt hosted Projektfest'07 as part of the Blacksun Festival in New Haven, Connecticut, in August. Projektfest'10 was held on July 30 & 31, 2010.[4] Projektfest'11 was held on November 12, 2011, at The Middle East nightclub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, featuring Voltaire, Black Tape for a Blue Girl, and Weep.[5]
