Traum

Starting in 1998 as a bedroom label, Traum is nowadays regarded as one of the top labels in Germany, linking electronic music with visuals and showcases. The label has settled down in the heart of Cologne including a mastering studio, graphic & video studio, booking and promotion agency and A&R area which is frequented by artists every day. The original philosophy of the label still remains the same; “not to administrate but to create music“.

Traum Schallplatten is part of a family of labels run by Jacqueline and Riley Reinhold, which further includes the labels Trapez and My Best Friend (MBF).
