The SPV GmbH (abbreviation for records , production and distribution ) is an in Hanover -based German independent label . It was founded in 1984 by Manfred Schütz . SPV operates the sub- labels Steamhammer, Long Branch Records, Laute Helden, Oblivion, Cash Machine Records and SPV Recordings , among others .
A takeover by the Berlin music publisher Jack White Productions AG had previously failed due to objections from the SPV artists.
In October 2012, a team of investors was found to ensure the continued existence of the label and the artist portfolio after avoiding the three-year insolvency proceedings and successfully restructuring the company.
In addition, in the course of the takeover by the group of investors, other key positions in the company were filled or refilled.
There is an exclusive distribution agreement with Infinity Entertainment for sales in Greece and Cyprus .
