  • Emergency Records was an American independent record label from 1979 to 1989. Founded in the United States in early 1979, Emergency Records specialized in products of the Italian disco sound of the 1970s and 1980s. During that time, the majority of the European production of disco music came from Germany, France, and Italy. Releases introduced electric instruments such as computers and synthesizers. During 1981 and 1982 the label released productions that mixed late disco emotions with heavy funky rhythms that made the Emergency Sound. As with many independent labels, in 1983 the label was looking for some hits of the dance music genre, and released early electro tracks such as "In the Bottle", "On the Upside" and "Let the Music Play". The international success of "Let The Music Play" allowed Emergency to continue until 1988. In 1987 Emergency Records signed a deal with Profile Records for distribution, which was canceled after two years. In 1989 the company closed down. Its back catalogs were sold to Unidisc Music, with its vinyl recordings considered of interest to serious collectors. (en)
  • Emergency Records è stata un'etichetta discografica indipendente statunitense attiva dal 1979 al 1989. Fondata a New York all'inizio del 1979, si è specializzata nella pubblicazione della Italo disco del periodo 1970 - 1980. In quegli anni, la maggior parte delle produzioni europee di disco music provenivano da Germania, Francia e Italia, con arrangiamenti che introducevano strumenti elettronici come computer e sintetizzatori, a integrare con nuovi suoni ed effetti le basi suonate dai session men. Nel 1981 e 1982 l'etichetta realizzò dischi che fondendo la dance con ritmiche funky, determinarono il "sound" di Emergency Records. Nel 1987 Emergency firmò un contratto con la Profile Records per la distribuzione, che fu però rescisso dopo due anni. Nel 1989 terminò l'attività e l'intero catalogo venne ceduto alla , che lo acquisì considerandolo di grande interesse per i collezionisti. Emergency Records "Black label" (it)
