Dutch hardcore and gabber label. Managed by DJ Outblast (label) & King Matthew (party).
Masters of Hardcore was founded in 1995 at a well known event location which name is the same as its address: Hemkade 48 (currently better known as North Sea Venue). Located in Zaandam, The Netherlands. Originally a division of A&A Productions Started under the mother label ID&T. The first four cd albums were released by ID&T. The first three of them even have the name ID&T in it's catalog number. See the 1st chapter, from 1996, as example: ID&TCOMP001/A Several later cd chapter releases show that the founding was one year prior to this release, so in 1995. The most recent album to show this fact is Twenty Years of Rebellion from 2015: CLDM2015005
Around 1998, the hardcore scene in the Netherlands reached its lowest point. The major labels were no longer interested in mainstream gabber and the big event promoters chose to organize more common dance music, such as trance and club. Many hardcore producers and DJs didn't know what to do and the die-hard hardcore fans didn't know where to go.
Released its last vinyl in April of 2010.
In 1999 the 1st cd chapter of the current Chapter Series was released: MOHCD9901 This album was the first under the MoH label, and the first and the last of past millennium. Chapter 2 MOHCD2001 was released soon after the turn of the millennium. New chapters are still coming out.
