Pink Floyd Records is a label that has been used for reissuing Pink Floyd's music since 2016. While Parlophone/Warner Music handles distribution of the band's back catalogue in Europe, Sony Music Entertainment holds the international rights. With a focus on preserving and reintroducing iconic albums, Pink Floyd Records ensures that fans can continue to enjoy the timeless music of this legendary band.

Pink Floyd were an English rock band from London. Founded in 1965, the group achieved worldwide acclaim with their innovative psychedelic music and later became known for their progressive rock sound.With philosophical lyrics, musical experimentation, and elaborate live shows, Pink Floyd remains one of the most commercially successful and influential groups in popular music history.The band consisted of David Gilmour on guitar and vocals, Richard Wright on keyboards and vocals, Nick Mason on drums and percussion, Roger Waters on bass guitar and vocals, and Syd Barrett on guitar and vocals during their early years. They were also joined by other talented musicians throughout their career.

One of the most iconic and influential albums ever, Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side Of The Moon celebrates its 50th Anniversary.

The album was partly developed during live performances, and the band premiered an early version of the suite at London’s Rainbow Theatre several months before recording began. The Dark Side Of The Moon is the eighth studio album by Pink Floyd, originally released in March 1973.&nbsp; The new material was recorded in 1972 and 1973 at EMI Studios (now Abbey Road Studios) in London. The iconic sleeve, which depicts a&nbsp;prism spectrum, was designed by&nbsp;Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis and drawn by George Hardie. ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’&nbsp;has sold over 50 million copies worldwide.

The new deluxe box set includes CD and gatefold vinyl of the newly remastered studio album and Blu-Ray and DVD audio featuring the original 5.1 mix and remastered stereo versions.&nbsp; The set also includes additional new Blu-ray disc of Atmos mix plus CD and LP of The Dark Side Of The Moon - Live At Wembley Empire Pool, London, 1974.
