UNPARALLELED DIVERSITY

Now, just a few years later, EKP is a self-contained hotbed for new talent like Impakt!, Oldschool Union, Rebirth, Protectorate, Cardinal Noire, Invoke The Insult, Atropine, Hexadiode, Vipermilk … It’s one of the things that the label does best. This project merges an open state of mind, in line with EKP program mission, and objectives, while ensuring quality. It’s everyone’s responsibility.
