Interscope Records is a US label that was founded in 1989 by film producer Ted Field and record producer Jimmy Iovine. Originally a small alternative label, Interscope gained recognition when it joined forces with Warner Music Group in 1990. This partnership allowed Interscope to market and distribute their musical products through Atlantic Records, a division of Warner Music. In 1992, the infamous "gangsta rap" label Death Row Records joined the Interscope family, releasing iconic albums such as Dr. Dre's *The Chronic* and Snoop Dogg's debut album *Doggystyle*. Over the years, Interscope went through various ownership changes and mergers, ultimately becoming part of Universal Music Group in 1996. Today, as part of the Interscope Geffen A&M group, Interscope remains one of UMG's most dominant labels.

In its early years, Interscope made significant contributions to the music industry by promoting alternative genres and embracing controversial artists like those from Death Row Records. The label played a pivotal role in popularizing gangsta rap during the early '90s and became synonymous with groundbreaking hip-hop releases.

Throughout its history, Interscope has continued to evolve and adapt to changing trends in music. With an impressive roster of artists spanning multiple genres including pop, rock, hip-hop, and R&B, Interscope has consistently delivered chart-topping hits and critically acclaimed

Emigrate. The one-time project has become more than that. Much more. The three studio albums, Emigrate (2007), Silent So Long (2014) and A Million Degrees (2018), prove that squarely behind Emigrate stands Richard Zven Kruspe – an extremely creative mind who needs the freedom to explore his music and his vision in ways outside of Rammstein. With Emigrate there are no limits, no barriers. Everything is possible, nothing held back, and it’s this ethos that underlines The Persistence Of Memory, the new studio album, set for release on November 5th. The Persistence Of Memory is a special jewel indeed, with the nine featured songs bringing together ideas that Richard has collected across the last two decades.Industrial Rock, Rock with electronic elements, however you choose to describe it, there’s no question that the songs here always contain a strong sense of melody, as rousing as they are deep. At one stage, it seemed that the tracks might be part of a bigger project – a vinyl box set of the first three albums with an additional LP included. On this bonus LP would be a selection of unreleased songs dating from 2001 right through to 2018. In the end, however, this material was considered too precious to sit beneath the ‘bonus’ heading, so The Persistence Of Memory was born... Richard reacquainted himself with his hard drives, coming across ideas, songs and lyrics that deserved to be brought into the light, material too good to remain in the archives. He threw himself fully into the task at hand, as he always does, working on the basis that "a good idea remains a good idea”, and if he felt that there was more to be gained he was open to taking another look at the arrangements and the lyrics; new parts were also recorded here an’ there, after which the entire mix was given a fresh polish, ensuring that the nine songs have a contemporary yet timeless coat of paint. This time, Richard tried to keep things as simple as possible, allowing the creativity to flow, keeping his sights firmly set on pure, raw Emigrate songs. Says Richard: "These songs were created at a certain point in my life, but ideas don't have an expiration date. Sounds, lyrics and themes, on the other hand, do." 'Freeze My Mind', for example, is one of the first Emigrate songs ever written, going right back to 2001. Now, 20 years later, it sounds fresh, of the moment, yet Emigrate through &amp; through, something that is true of the album as a whole. Some of the elements are forged in a familiar heat, but these are married to new ways of working, new influences and challenges.
