About
Allkore was started in the early Spring of 2009 by SBZ and DJ Melancholia with the aim of establishing a worldwide , all-inclusive label geared towards fans of the “J-Core” scene or hardcore music. From the very beginning, Allkore’s goal has been to create enjoyable music that caters to the interests of our fanbase.
Our first release, Chrono Trigger remix album “Arc Impulse”, was very successful, featuring songs from resident artists DJ Melancholia, T2Kazuya, and Rex Buron, along with guest participation from Shingo DJ of Mob Squad Tokyo. Releasing at Anime Central in May 2009, it quickly sold out, though a limited second run is available for a discount price at mydjsobad when it reopens.
Arc Impulse was followed in October of 2009 by our first general compilation, “Allkore Riot Squad Vol. 1″. Joining the standard Allkore artists was an expanded lineup including Japanese guests Traffic Jammies and Thanatos and the physical release debuts of Helblinde and OBSiDiAN零, along with numerous others, ensuring quite a wide variety of styles to be enjoyed. The limited run of 100 copies sold out very quickly, both domestically and from the Guhroovy store in Japan, though remaining copies are again available from mydjsobad.
Allkore hosted its first online radio event, Allkore Riot Kontrol 01, from March 5-6 2010. Featuring DJ sets from many artists appearing on Allkore releases, plus additional participation including veteran DJ Q’Hey to a surprise afterparty set from Nu Foundation, the event was tuned into by upwards of 300 listeners from all across the globe. The next Riot Kontrol will surely be an even bigger blast!
Since then Allkore has had many more releases and events, all of which can be read about on the individual release pages and on http://www.riotkontrol.com!
