After a successful 2003 with his hit single 'Feelings' on Lost Language,
Mike Shiver along with fellow friend and colleague Johan Bergström formed an identity now known as Captured Music.
Since the launch, Captured Music has become one of Scandinavia's finest leading EDM record labels with a well established trademark attracting numerous amounts of growing fans all over the world.
Label owner and manager Mike Shiver quotes;
- "Captured Music started out mainly as a trance label, but we've always been of the opinion of releasing quality music no matter what genre as long as we like it. Therefor I would like to entitle the label as an EDM label and not a trance label."
With an impressing yet increasing artist roster hosting well known artists such as Mike Shiver, David West, Leon Bolier, Matias Lehtola, Sami Saari and Sonicvibe as well as upcoming talents such as Marc Damon, Seth Hutton, Vadim Soloviev, Soliquid and In Progress, Captured Music ensures to maintain their focus on high quality releases which has become their famous signum.
"Today we have a much better structure within the company and I'm sure this will show in the coming future. We're currently focusing a lot in assisting our artists in every possible way, everything from juridical to production assistance. In addition we're always trying to keep a very close and just not business directed contact with our artists which we believe is one of the keystones for succeeding as a label today. After all music is a lot about having fun and share each others passion for music while striving for a joint goal." - Matias Lehtola (A&R Manager).
As of late going totally independent, Captured Music is not only releasing excellent dance music, but are also focusing on arranging high quality dance events, offering mixing and mastering services for all kinds of music, managing other small indie labels.
