Founded by Jonas Wahrlich in the summer of 2006, Eminor initially sought to publish a wide variety of repetitive music with some kind of relation to the key e-minor. As the frequency of releases increased, the tonal restriction was handled more leniently and the musical focus moved towards deep and minimal techno. However, a musical relation to e-minor itself is still appreciated and the label continues to release instrumental solo songs from time to time. Having its roots in Hamburg´s electronic scene, the label quickly evolved as an international melting pot for contemporary electronics and has built up a strong network of mutual inspiration.
