History

Ninthwave Records is an independent record company launched in 2006, as an offshoot of Lexicon Magazine, a tribute to all things 80’s. Think hyper color T-shirts, big hair, even bigger shoulder pads, New Wave music and of course Electropop.

Always looking for that something special and new, Ninthwave Records has an ever increasing number of tracks to take you from the multi-colored dance floors to the newest super-clubs with Welsh sister act ‘Electrovamp’ (with YouTube sensation Keenan Cahill in tow), reintroduced New Wave chameleon ‘Nathalie Archangel’ with her album ‘Raven’, multi award winning Australian cabaret turned synth popper ‘Kim Smith’ with his debut album ‘Nova’.

In its vast catalog are releases by acts ranging from Ganymede and Empire State Human, Brandon Lee, NASA and Spray. Songs put out by Ninthwave have been used in video games (such as Dance Dance Revolution) and TV shows (like “True Blood”). Ninthwave’s Heaven 17 single, “Hands Up to Heaven,” even reached No. 6 on Billboard Magazine’s US Club Play Chart.

Lifting the veil of mystery surrounding Swedish producer Matt (a.k.a. Stormby) Eriksson’s 'Amelia’s Fault’, pop powerhouse Brenda Bennett, NYC Model/Popstar Kaden, electropop genius Richardo Autobahn to pop-culture icon Jane Badler a.k.a. Diana from the Sci-Fi cult TV show 'V'

Ninthwave Records, is proud to be official home and supporter of Moombahton and Moombahcore (a genre of fused house and reggeaton rich with dramatic buildups, a two-step pulse, and quick drum fills). With the release of multiple compilations, singles, remixes and EP's set to continue into the future.

More recently, in 2013 Ninthwave Records became a part of BuGoudi House, an entertainment services company created to provide artists with a full suite of resources supporting their creativity, business needs and independence. Services include management and booking in addition to providing publishing and distribution through Ninthwave and FC Music Group imprints.
