In 1981, after having been the A&R-Director at WEA Music Germany for 10 years, Killy Kumberger left his position to set up his own label, Repertoire Records. In 1988 Thomas Neelsen, a dedicated record-collector and musician, joined Repertoire Records as partner. Together, both men developed the label's concept around the slogan: “Into The Future With The Past”. This approach led the then small venture to become one of Europe's biggest reissue labels and licensing sources for popular music from the last 40 years. Their reissue program concentrates on best quality and faithful reproduction of the original album's artwork. Most releases come with (up to 15!) bonus tracks, many of which have never before been available on CD. And this attention to detail has paid off - more and more of the original artists take part in our re-issues, adding their input and ideas to the liner notes and designs, contributing photos from their private archives and often giving new insights into now familiar tracks. Repertoire Records covers many different styles that were once important and have found new relevance today: from Procol Harum to Stone the Crows, from the Yardbirds to Rose Tattoo, from the Equals to John Entwistle and Roger Daltrey, from the German Krautrock scene to the British-Invasion - they recognize few borders! And their critically acclaimed “Popumentary-Series” with detail-rich booklets are enjoying “cult” status. But enough words. The Repertoire-program speaks for itself. We hope you will enjoy looking through their back-catalogue and will be tempted to discover and select some of the fine music they have to offer.
