It's already a bit old news, but FYI: Because of declining CD sales (or if you believe the rumours, financial mismanagement), Lightning Records is out of business. It is the parent company of the legendary Bonzai label as well as XTC, Camouflage, Green Martian, Zounds, Scanner, Tripomatic, Progrez and Axma.
The future of the artists signed to the label (Dirk Dierickx, Laurent Veronnez, Yves De Ruyter, Jurgen Leyers) isn't known at the moment, but Dierickx has hinted he will buy & continue the Scanner sublabel he was managing.
