After 3 years of dedicating his time to promoting local events in Toronto under Gamma Ray Productions, Wizard was once again excited by the diversity of the sounds in drum'n'bass and decided to bring his label back on the international market. After a long hiatus, Gamma Ray returns in a whole new form.
Welcome Gamma Ray Entertainment. The company will continue to concentrate on promoting events under Gamma Ray Productions, release innovative music under Gamma Ray Records and organize tours for the likeminded artists under Gamma Ray Bookings.

Gamma Ray Records:
[--------------------new vinyl releases-----------------]:
GRR004 - out in May via Nu Urban Music, UK
a.Gremlinz & Stranjah - 8th Spirit [clip]
b.Gremlinz - Spacerap [clip]
Long time friends and Toronto locals have blown up worldwide over the past year. They have the support of many top dog DJ's such as Goldie, Doc Scott, Ink, Loxy, Flight, Skitty, Seba, Phobia, Rohan, Chase, Status and more. This is a dip into the deeper musical world for this duo as they deliver two lush tracks, juxtaposing the depth and the weight in a true Gamma Ray fashion.
GRR005 - out in June via Nu Urban Music, UK
a. ASC - Snowstorm [clip]
b. ASC - Starbeams[clip]
A long time friend and a partner of Gamma Ray and also the most underrated producer in drum'n'bass today comes through in his typical futurist fashion. Without ignoring the label's vision of mixing the hard and the smooth, ASC manages to write a timeless track in Snowstorm backed with a detroit techno laced Starbeams. Guaranteed shelf life = eternity.
[-------------------new MP3 releases------------------]:
In an attempt to stay in synch with today's market demands, Gamma Ray presents two brand new MP3 only releases via Strictly Digital. With the vinyl market experiencing tough times, we offer a different medium for those who collect music and play with CDJ's. It would be ideal to release all the music we like on vinyl but the current situation does not present such opportunity. MP3 releases also open up a whole new world for the music collectors value more experimental music. Without further ado:
GRRDIG001 - out May 15th via Strictly-Digital.COM
Orion - "Sweet Sorrow EP"
a. Sweet Sorrow (feat. Jadis) [clip]
b. A New Dawn [clip]
c. Placid [clip]
d. Slanked [clip]
Gamma Ray's original artist Orion returns to the label with an astounding 4 track EP. Our label was John's first vinyl home and also becomes his first MP3 home. While concentrating on his downtempo and live band project with partner Jadis, Orion still shows that he's one of the top musical drum'n'bass producers with every track on this EP. He justifies his cause one more time after works on top labels such as Subtitles, Good Looking, Breakbeat Science, Purified Audio, Nu Directions and Fokuz.
GRRDIG002 - Out May 15th via Strictly-Digital.COM
a.ASC - Alternate Source [clip]
b.ASC - Terminal 2 [clip]
More ASC but who can blame us? You know how they say quality not quantity? This guy is a quality-quantity machine. Alternate Source is a hetic, synth driven vocal stormer and Terminal 2 is a crisp remix of the original Terminal, released on a rare "Universal Livewire" Gamma Ray doublepack back in 2002.
