Minus and Plus 8 now available on Juno Download

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

minus_logoplus8_logoJuno Download (www.junodownload.com) are pleased to announce the availability of the full back catalog of two legendary techno labels, Minus and Plus 8.

World-renowned artists on the Minus label include label founder Richie Hawtin, Loco Dice, Marc Houle and Heartthrob. Plus 8’s key artists include Paco Osuna, Alexi Delano, Lemon 8 and Marco Carola.

Launched in 1990, Plus 8 was the brainchild of Canadians Richie Hawtin and John Acquaviva. Since 1998, Minus has been the home base of Richie Hawtin and a small family of influential artists, producers and DJs hailing from the Americas and Europe, who have pioneered the Minimal sound that has dominated dance music in the last few years.

The addition of the Minus and Plus 8 labels complement Juno’s expanding digital portfolio which already exceeds 900,000 releases, making it one of the world’s largest dance music sites. Other recent new label additions have been Made To Play, Front Room, Afro Art, Viva Music and Phonetic.

Next up will be the full back catalogs from Yoshitoshi and Fatboy Slim’s Skint label, of which the full catalog has never been fully released digitally. The tracks are currently being digitally re-mastered for Juno and will be available very soon!
