Nilaihah Records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nilaihah Records is an American independent record label, currently based in Columbus, Ohio. It was originally founded in 1999 by Kristy Venrick of The Azoic as a means of releasing the band's material. Since then, the label has grown considerably, signing other notable acts spanning a variety of electronic music styles, such as Fiction 8, Null Device, GASR, and Interface, among others. The label also has formed a partnership with the German label Infacted, serving as the North American outlet for European bands like Distorted Reality and XP8, signing them to distribution deals. The label also recently enjoyed a successful joint venture alongside Infacted with Muscle and Hate, a tribute to Nitzer Ebb featuring members of XP8 and Icon of Coil.

The label maintains an extensive mailorder catalog of both its own releases and the recordings of others. It also provides its music in plenty of legal digital download sites (all of which can be linked from the label's main page).
