An exciting story that made history itself. The legendary record label stands for a turbulent success story in East and West that is unparalleled both musically and economically. The record company is home to its own genre, East German rock. City, Puhdys, Karat and Silly became the sound of the GDR, which AMIGA successfully exported to the West even back then. The label probably landed its biggest coup with Karat's "Der Blaue Planet". By 1989, almost 480,000 records had been sold on the other side of the Wall. We were known throughout Germany, sums up the last AMIGA boss, Jörg Stempel, and laid the foundations back then for East German rock to remain so popular today.Read moreLess
