Mille Plateaux is a German record label founded in 1994 by Achim Szepanski in Frankfurt, as a sublabel of Force Inc. Music Works.
Their idea of the rhizome has been applied as the label's concept of publishing a large variety of forward thinking electronic music from different contexts.
In early 2004, Mille Plateaux's parent company Force Inc. went bankrupt due to the collapse of Germany's main independent music distributor, EFA-Medien.
[3] Among a broad range of new and younger artists, Thomas Köner, Porter Ricks and Cristian Vogel have returned to the label.
"[5]Bearing the same title, the book "Ultrablack of Music" contains texts by writers and artists such as Benjamin Noys, Frederic Neyrat, Marcus Schmickler and Holger Schulze.
