All began when federico sanchez (dn, AR) met carlos estevez (carl-e, BE) in a very awful party @ Buenos Aires, 2003. There, they arranged some projects in common (music composing and producing projects), but the two of them wanted to make something like a major label or collective with collaborations from sculptors, vj's, graphical artists, conceptual artists, etcetera.
When 2006 arrived, many friends of them (including nauj, CL and p.a.t., UK) and the two mentioned before had a meeting, the first really big meeting. After about 2 or 3 hours, they decided to create a art collective, 808 Media & Recordings, including artists from all South America, but each of them took separate paths until 2007, when the multimedia label/collective showed up.
