    This label definitely seems to be closely related to Scorpio Music, Inc. They're using the same types of hype stickers and many of the albums are titled that were pressed up by Scorpio a few years back. Don't pay too much for these if you want to buy them.

      I have a feeling it's just recent represses of Scorpio label reissues. Was comparing a Scorpio and 8th records copy of The World of Harry Partch side by side at my record store and they were identical that's prob not saying much but the 8th records copy was $6 more than the Scorpio release also looked to come in a printed thin card inner sleeve instead of a generic white inner sleeve which Scorpio releases come in. Maybe the 8th records are a little higher quality? Would love to know where these are getting pressed...if they use Rainbo like Scorpio it's a deal breaker but if a better pressing plant is used I may buy something from them.

        my guess is it's scorpio in a different guise - very rarely legit and no mastering so will likely sound shit as well as looking so

            Is this label legitimate? I've seen these releases sold on a few reputable web stores.
