Fusion Records
Encyclopedia
Fusion Records is a Dutch
sub-label
of Freaky Music which, at first, released hard trance
and hard house records, and kept growing by releasing hardstyle
. After the end of Superplastik (another sub label of Freaky Music), the artists that were signed to it moved over to Fusion Records. These artists included The Pitcher, Dozer, and the Noisecontrollers The direction of the sound from Fusion Records is changing because there are now a lot of new producers on the main label, who are pushing on the newer, more melodic sound of hardstyle, as compared to the original more rhythmic based releases around 2003. In the year 2010, the Noisecontrollers, who are, besides Zany, the most famous artists on the label, left Fusion to start a new label with Wildstylez
