Big News
Website Updated
Our first news of this year is a big announcement:
After 2 years we are no longer distributing KK Belgium's product. We will be keeping our registered name, KK Records North America, as an umbrella for the entire sub-distribution/mail order operation and as a label for industrial releases. Our techno and trip hop releases (both ones we develop and for Canadian indies that we sub-distribute) will be under the name Silver USA (which is our label associated with Koen Lybaert's Silver recordings label in Belgium). Vinyl releases from Silver will continue to be on the Respect Wax imprint. If you are mentioning us in print please refer to us as KK Records North America or KKNA. If you are reviewing our releases please only list the appropriate label name: Silver USA, Silver recordings or Respect Wax. Our distributors are Bayside for the US and Outside Music in Canada. Thanks.
Website Updated
Our website has now been completely updated. Please look around and find details on the labels we distribute, descriptions of the releases and new artist links. In particular the KK labels (KK, Nova Zembla, Ultraxx, Madagascar and Zazaboem) have been reviewed and updated as to each release's price and availability. Mail order customers should especially take note because as soon as the appropriate arrangements are made with KK Belgium the stock will be returned to them and most likely will not be available again in North America. Many of the older releases are now out of print, so check out the catalogues to complete your collections while you still can (because KK Belgium doesn't do mail order). We do have returns of out-of-stock items so send us your want lists.
