In 2001, they acquired from the prestigious trademark Stephen Hill and Hearts of Space Records rear catalog (including among about 140 album releases such as Constance Demby 1986 Novus Magnificat , Michael Stearns's 1988 Encounter , Rich & Roach's 1990 Strata , Rich & Lustmord's 1995 , Steve Roach 1996 The Magnificent Void , Robert Rich 1998 Seven Veils , and a solo album by Paul Haslinger from Tangerine Dream). As Hill explains, "Despite our success, in 2000 everything became very difficult for our record label, and in the end we sold the label to a larger company in 2001. Luckily we found Jon Birge of Valley Entertainment, who admitted what which we have achieved and have kept the HOS Notes catalog together and available. "Though nothing else related to the business side, Stephen Hill continues to work on Artist & amp; Repertoire and generate new recordings for labels.
