Em:t Records (Emit Records) was a British record label, based in Nottingham, which specialized in ambient electronic music. They were active from 1994 to 1998.

All of the 94-98 em:t releases were processed using the Roland Sound Space RSS 3D sound imaging system, giving the music an extra "spacious" quality.

em:t was born as a division of the t:me Recordings label in 1994. t:me released mostly vinyl records falling under the broad category of house music, and sought to create a new sublabel for more forward-thinking ambient material. Over the next four years, they released a series of eighteen albums and compilations, packaged as a collector's series. Though em:t never enjoyed widespread commercial success, their releases were highly regarded and influential in ambient circles, and the label attracted a cult following - encouraged, no doubt, by the collectible nature of the releases.

em:t releases had strict rules governing their design aesthetic. Individual album titles were always the sequential four-digit catalogue number of the disc; the album's cover was always a full-colour picture of a wild animal; all albums were released on CD only; all CDs were packaged in digipacks; all CDs themselves bore the same Chinese character in black on the non-playing face of the disc.

The label garnered praise from music journalists at the time. Coda magazine wrote that "The Em:t series will surely go down in history for being as important in the 90s as the albums of Brian Eno were in the 70s", and specialist music magazine The Wire noted that the em:t catalogue represented "The vanguard of post-dance technological music". Em:t produced promo postcards for the label on which these quotes, and others, were duly displayed. A Q&A in DJ Magazine in 1995 also stated the label's unofficial credo: "Never presume your audience is any less clever than you are".

I know there's probably a good technical or historical explanation, but it's very irritating to copy/paste text into Lemmy to have it looking like poo after posting. Is there an Android editor that will add double spaces to ends of lines so it's wysiwyg? Bonus if it will also insert "> " at the beginning of lines for quoting selected blocks of text. Maybe this can be done with a JavaScript webpage?

Punjabi Disco: The lost masterpiece which birthed British-Asian dance music

...

Mohinder Kaur Bhamra was one such person who recognised the importance of that escapism. Having moved to the UK from India back in 1961, Bhamra was among the growing South Asian population in Britain at that time, and she came face to face with the extent of the nation’s widespread racist attitudes as a result. Nevertheless, she always maintained her cultural roots through music and encouraged countless others to follow suit.

...

Hang on, you might be saying, ‘What does this have to do with disco?’ Well, through her performances, often accompanied by her son Kuljit, Bhamra essentially laid the foundations for all future British-Asian dance music, and her 1982 record Punjabi Disco was a particular revelation, without which Bhangra daytimers might never have existed.

...

Despite its endlessly obscure nature, though, Punjabi Disco amassed something of a cult following in the years following its release, rightly hailed as being the origins of Asian dance music, as well as being a key cultural landmark in the story of the British-Asian community as a whole. Perhaps more so than any other record, Punjabi Disco told the liberating story of Asian people in the UK, enmeshing those traditional wedding-song sounds with a distinctly westernised form of dance music.

...

Now, at long last, the prayers of those crate diggers have been answered by the higher power, which is Los Angeles’ Naya Beat Records, who have announced a full reissue of the album for the very first time. What’s more, the long-awaited reissue comes complete with a previously unreleased track and a collection of dance-heavy remixes, which help to capture the impact which this album had on Asian dance music upon its release.
