About Me
GROUNDZERO
Records
Is a portuguese record label focused on electronic music, created to support a new breed of talents from Lisbon. The first step into it’s creation was the GroundZero Studio, the foundation, built to host the various projects we are involved in.
Rehearsing, composing, recording, mixing and mastering were available to artists gathered in this creativity centre. Joining forces and experiences was the method to evolve.
We explore different territories in the electronic music scene, there are no exact parameters to define our line...it’s just the music we love doing! Our effort is to illustrate the modern portuguese culture, cosmopolitan, informed and aware of what’s happening in the world around us!
Now is the time to show what we’ve been up to this last couple of years, we hope it reflects our deep love for music, and the freedom we enjoy by making it!

ITHAKA VS CARTELL70 - Fuse with Me
GROUNDZERO Records's first release (gzero-001) was a 4 track ep. by Ithaka vs Cartell70. Ithaka is an american artist (photographer, sculptor, poet) well known by his vocals on the major house music anthem “So get up†by the Underground Sound of Lisbon (Tribal America, 1995), that shook the dancefloors all over the planet. After 7 releases (by labels as EMI), Ithaka met the recently created project Cartell70 in Lisbon, in early 2006. The connection was strong between all, and “Fuse with me†was born.
GROUNDZERO RELEASE 2
CARTELL70 - the album
The second release (gzero-002) was Cartell70’s debut album. After a conception period that started late in 2004 at the Toolateman Studio, run by one of the leading portuguese bands Blasted Mechanism, the Project moved on to collaborate with artist such as Dj Nelassassin (International Turntablism Federation Champion 2006), Ithaka, Yellow (Techno Mc and producer for the label Sonic Culture), Blasted Mechanism, Rui Lobato (painter/poet) and Nigga Poison (HipHop/Ragga from Cape Verde). The result was one of the most inovative records that had been made in Portugal, producer Beat Laden explored the areas of Drum n’Bass, Breakbeat with a twist of Dub and Techno, blending uniquely with the 2 voices of the Project, Pablo and Castro.
