Counter Intelligence is a new label based out of Tilburg - the Netherlands. "Counter Intelligence is all about bringing musical diversity into drum&bass", says John Doe, the label owner, "The sound of the label is breakbeat-oriented with influences ranging from atmospherics to electro, ragga to techno. All keeping the dancefloor in mind but not avoiding experimentation".
Labels that have been an inspiration are Certificate 18, Droppin Science, Partisan and Reinforced, all putting out excellent quality musical drum&bass.

Counter Intelligence aims to push exciting new talent and lets established producers do something fresh and different on the label. "I really want to involve the producers and DJ's associated with Counter Intelligence in the creative decision making and create a nice cooperative working atmosphere for all of them", continues John, "I want them to start working together, learn from eachother. I see Counter Intelligence as a facilitating mechanism for that and hopefully our releases will reflect the positive atmosphere I am trying to create and support."

Aside from vinyl releases, Counter Intelligence is going to branch out into CD projects and mp3 releases at the end of 2006. Collaboration is not only a value for the artists on the label but also for the label itself. "I hope to be able to work together on some interesting projects and innitiatives with my fellow contemporary label owners for extra impact and to bring exciting music to our combined audiences."
