'
Adamiak founded his own label: Blutonium Records. Blutonium Records later became Blutonium Media Germany, based in
Kelternwith 5 sublabels of which now only a few keep producing. The sublabels
are Blutonium Traxx, Dance 2 Trance, Pumping Trance, Q-Asar, Trianon
Records. Since Blutonium Records isn't producing
trance anymore, but
hardstyle, the production of trance is in the hands of the sublabels. In December 2005 Blutonium Records released her 100th album
[2].
Yoji Biomehanikahas made a remix of "Dark Angel" for Blutonium. In 2007 Adamiak and Ast
decided to form a project together, called Blutonium Boys, because they
have been producing and touring together for such a long time
[3].
Their first release was "Use Me / XTC". The Blutonium Records
compilation CD called "Hardstyle Nation" (released in 2008 under
ZYX Music)
has received mixed reviews, most reviewers were disappointed to find
out that the album does not contain primarily hardstyle music like the
album's title suggests. Instead, the album also contains
tech trance and
latin house[4].
