Status: Partially found



em:t Records was a record label active from 1994 to 1998, and from 2003 to 2006. It specialized in releasing ambient music from artists such as Woob, Coco Steel & Lovebomb, Mat Jarvis (aka. Gas & High Skies), and more. The label initially went defunct in 1998 due to financial troubles, leaving two planned albums, em:t 1198 and Gas2 2298, unreleased. The first was going to be a Various Artists compilation[1], the other would be a second album from Gas[2]. Some of the tracks from both albums exist on prior releases from the label, but it is unknown if all of them exist.

The label had a second run from 2003 to 2006, having only 6 releases before closing down for good. One of the releases was going to be from James Murray, under the alias of Sub, in 2004[3]. However, only limited promo CDr copies were released. Some of the tracks were reworked into Murray's 2008 album "Where Edges Meet", but the other tracks still remain missing.
