Founded in early 1995, Grow! quickly established itself as a key player in the underground house music scene. The label was created by Christian Mahringer (aka Jeremiah) along with Michael Peter (Duke) and Martin Retschitzegger (Tin). Together, they released a steady stream of 12″ records, often under various pseudonyms, focusing entirely on the music rather than individual profiles. While Grow! remained their main creative outlet, the founders were also active beyond the label: Mahringer released music on Chez Damier\u2019s Balance Alliance and the renowned Chicago label Guidance, while Peter and Retschitzegger collaborated on records for Daniel Bell\u2019s 7th City and Robert Hood\u2019s influential M-Plant label, and also launched their own imprint, Central. This new compilation presents a first carefully curated selection of the most notable tracks from the label\u2019s catalog, alongside previously unreleased versions. All tracks were edited and remastered from the original tape recordings. It offers a deep dive into the raw, analog-driven sound that defined Grow!\u2019s identity. With its consistent focus on quality, anonymity, and artistic integrity, Grow! Records has left a lasting impression far beyond Austria\u2019s borders. This release is both a celebration and a rediscovery of one of the country\u2019s most respected underground imprints.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
