Dark Pleasure Recording is a Bursa / Turkey based label that aims to release high quality progressive techno-house music from different producers from all over the world. The label was created in 2008 by Sezer Uysal. The label exists to promote progressive house on the local scene and all around the world.
Already being DJs and electronic music producers by hobby, we decided to contribute, in our way, more actively to that scene. In response to this yearning, we decided to co-found Dark Pleasure Recordings, a label that we officially launched in the spring of 2008. Our first plan was to put in one's two cents in the sound we esteemed by promoting the result of our influence through a pure progressive house style.
From the early idea through the first release, being greatly immersed in progressive music and consuming a cluster of tracks, we had the chance to refine our tastes and officially find our way... the way that converges towards the Dark Pleasure sound!... A progressive house music that mixes house and techno with a touch of dark & deep grooves. Due to the groove specific to the two first influences... and the concern about "good-quality-recordings", a typical feature of the progressive sound! ... we found in PROG, the foundations of our own sound. We officially recognize that PROG got to us, but keeping in mind that progressive music offers many possibilities.
Dark Pleasure Recordings will release both on 12" vinyl and digital format and the music is available at many electronic music online stores (for ex., junodownload.com, trackitdown.net, beatsdigital etc.) as well as in many record shops (international and local).
