Bluemoon Musix Productions
The Swiss label Bluemoon Musix Productions was founded in 2007 by musician, rapper and producer Chris Bluemoon ( Christian Imhof ) in Jenaz ( Graubünden ). In addition to various local music events, the company based in Domat / Ems (GR) has also made a name for itself with bookings, management and CD releases from regional bands, as well as the compilations Bock uf Rock, Bock uf Rap and Bock uf Metal.
Bluemoon Musix Productions' vision is to offer unknown bands a platform by allowing them to be represented with a song on one of the samplers or to play a concert at an event organized by Bluemoon. The Bluemoon Musix Productions label is a non-profit organization that promotes young artists.
successes
In 2009 the label released a song by the multiplatinum band 77 Bombay Street officially on a CD . The Chur band Plasma was also represented on the same sound carrier. In 2012, Bock uf Rap, the second edition, expanded, which gave the label not only regional names like LIV , Cigi , Lou Geniuz , Damos or Liricas Analas, but also national greats like Steff la Cheffe , Dodo (singer) , Fratelli-B , Steven Egal or even Hans Nötig brought in for the compilation. The Chur rapper ALI was represented for the first time on Bock uf Rap Vol. II.
In 2013 Bock uf Rock appeared with bands such as Favez (band) , Delilahs , Redwood . A year later, Bluemoon was also able to win bands like Shakra , Knackeboul , Polo Hofer , Greis , Famara and many others for the compilation Bock uf Rock.
