Zodiak Commune Records - The Acid Label Since 1998.

------------------------------------
Foundation and Early Years (1993–2003)
------------------------------------
In 1993, DJ Zodiak (Marc Pulles) founded Zodiak Commune (partyorganisation), initially as a spontaneous rave after a birthday party. The collective quickly became a legendary force in the Dutch electronic underground. Zodiak was the driving force behind Zodiak Commune parties, a central figure in shaping the second wave of underground Acid and Electro in the Netherlands.

------------------------------------
Foundation Vinyl Label (1998–2003)
------------------------------------
Zodiak Commune Records (the label) was founded in 1998 by DJ Zodiak as the label arm of the Zodiak Commune collective. From the start, the label was vinyl-first, representing the raw and innovative spirit of Acid music.

The label released tracks covering the breadth of underground acid styles, including Acid Techno, Electro Acid, and Acid IDM, and quickly became recognized as an influential player in the Dutch electronic underground, helping to shape and sculpt the scene.

Between 1998 and 2003, the label also organized Zodiak Commune Records label parties at major cultural venues, including Effenaar (Eindhoven), Doornroosje (Nijmegen), 013 (Tilburg), and other locations across the Netherlands and Belgium.

------------------------------------
Slower Phase (2003–2017)
------------------------------------
After Zodiak stepped back as a DJ and transferred the Zodiak Commune party organization to a non-profit foundation in 2003, the label entered a slower period. Releases were less frequent, but Zodiak Commune Records remained active and respected in the underground scene.

------------------------------------
Revival and Expansion (2017–Present)
------------------------------------
In 2017, Zodiak fully reactivated the label, returning with renewed energy and focus. Since then, Zodiak Commune Records has expanded its activities and built a strong international presence, while remaining true to its vinyl-first Acid identity.

The label now operates multiple sub-labels, including:
* Deep Acid Records – Electro House–oriented
* Outlaw303 – Raw Acid and Electro Acid
* Same Size Soul – Pure Electro
This structure allows the label to explore different underground sounds while staying deeply rooted in the Acid movement.

Zodiak Commune Records places a strong emphasis on supporting new talent alongside established artists, providing a platform for fresh voices in the scene. The team behind the label includes:
* Zodiak (Marc Pulles) – founder & head
* Chris Nexus Six– artwork and visual identity
* Paul Renard – Acid- House & Techno focus – Deep Acid & Zodiak Commune Records
* DJ Feryne – Electro focus – Same Size Soul & Zodiak Commune Records
* G303 – Acid specialist
* Stefan ZMK – Mastering

Together, the team continues to push the underground Acid and Electro movement forward, with the label standing as one of the most consistent and respected names in the European Acid scene.

Looking ahead, Zodiak Commune Records plans to resume label parties, continuing the tradition of live events that showcase their artists and connect directly with the underground community.

-------------------------------------
Important Distinction
Since 2003, Zodiak Commune (the party organization) and Zodiak Commune Records (the label) have been completely separate entities, each with its own team and activities. Zodiak remains fully involved with the label but is no longer connected to the party organization.

------------------------------------
Series
Zodiak Commune Records currently carries the following series (like sublabels):
ZC - Acid Techno, Acid Rave, Raw Acid, Hard Acid
ZC-303 - Acid Techno by Unknown Artists
ZC-ELEC - Electro Acid, Breaks
ZC-KORE - Acidcore, Acidtribe, Acidtekno
ZC-TRIP - Storytelling Acid on 10”

In 1993 the Dutch DJ Zodiak (Marc Pulles) had the wild idea following a birthday party to organize parties under the name Zodiak Commune.

But who could had ever imagined that Zodiak Commune would become a household name in the underground circuit in no time and that this status would still stand strong over twenty seven years later? As founder of Zodiak Commune and host of Kortsluiting in de Effenaar in Eindhoven, Zodiak is held jointly responsible for the second generation of Acid and Electro parties in the Netherlands, from the underground oriented Acid Rain parties in squats to the more club oriented Acid Virus, and last but not least the legendary Liquid Foundation parties at the Kolpinghuis in Nijmegen. DJ Zodiak still brings the Acid and Electro that has the warmth to conquer the human heart at the first bleep, looking back on the feeling with which many people started and where today`s generations now end up with; pure and timeless and therefore never dated. Zodiak Commune is now being supported by a foundation, but DJ Zodiak is still the owner of the label. He runs Zodiak Commune Records like his turntables; Directly from the heart and that is how you will experience it.

All music is precious - my playlists are labelled under 'A' or'AA',  other people's playlists I have borrowed are labelled under 'B' - 
I DJ under the name Donkey magic if you ever see me around say hi.
