The Standby Records label was founded in 2002 by DJ's Jon Sinclair and Matt Rickard and was born out of their groundbreaking mixes and radio shows for dance music's legendary Ministry Of Sound Radio.
Having presented shows for Ministry of Sound since 2002, the Standby name has been associated with all the biggest names in underground dance music including Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, Timo Maas, Nick Warren, and many more.
However, the Standby label launched with the goal of discovering new talent and has exceeded all expectations - having released a series of records from debut artists from across Europe including Slytek, Quarrel, Alius & Ezzo and DeeRiVee.
With a growing talent pool and a proven track record for picking out great records and producers, Standby is a label to keep an eye on in 2009.
Rising star Quarrel from Poland delivers another blinding piece of prog house - Original Mix taking an uplifting house vibe with the immense Alius & Ezzo grabbing the headlines with their interpretation.
