After Warner Music International acquired several country-specific record labels in the late 1980s and early 1990s, like Continental (3), which was previously owned by Gravações Elétricas S.A., this is the new name after its acquisition. Warner Music Brasil Ltda. began operating the Continental brand through its EastWest label in 1995-96. However, catalogs of music from labels such as Gravasom, Musicolor (3) and Phonodisc are not a part of Warner Music Brasil.
