DHD RECORDS DIVISION - HISTORY 1994 - PRESENT.

DHD, AS AN OFFICIAL BUSINESS, STARTED OUT ORIGINALLY AS A SPECIAL PROJECTS COMPANY FOR MAJOR RECORD LABELS AND ANYONE ELSE WHO NEEDED OUR SERVICES. IN THOSE DAYS, WE WERE DHD MANUFACTURING. WE DID PROJECTS FOR MAJOR RELEASES FOR SONY MUSIC, CAPITOL RECORDS,  DANZIG, SOCIAL DISTORTION, ESTHERO, GODZILLA, BEASTIE BOYS, THE OFFSPRING, UNWRITTEN LAW AND MANY MORE. WE DID DISPLAYS, WINDOW DRESSINGS, MANNEQUINS, AND PROMOTIONAL ITEMS.

WE RAN OUR OWN TEE SHIRT SHOP, PRINTING ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT FOR LARGE ORDERS.

WE ALSO DID ARTWORK AND SHIRTS FOR LEGENDARY SKATE COMPANIES LIKE SANTA MONICA AIRLINES, H-STREET, HUMAN, G&S… OUR CONNECTION TO THE SKATEBOARD INDUSTRY GOES BACK TO OUR EARLY SPONSORSHIP DAYS WHEN WE DREW GRAPHICS FOR OUR OWN SIGNATURE SKATEBOARD DECKS (WHENWE TURNED PROFESSIONAL) AND THOSE OF OTHER CONTEMPORARY RIDERS. WE WERE ALSO CONNECTED TO THE SURF INDUSTRY DOING ARTWORK FOR QUICKSILVER, ONEILL, LIFES A BEACH, NO FEAR, HOBIE, SURFBOARDS BY NEAL MORGAN AND MORE.

RECENTLY AN OFFER FOR A MODEL PANT FROM DOCKERS FAILED DUE TO THEIR INTERNAL POLITICS. WE DECIDED, AGAIN, TO TAKE THE JOB OURSELVES AND DESIGNED A CLOTHING LINE. IT IS MARKETED UNDER THE GODOY NAME.

WE ARE PATENT HOLDERS AND ARE FAMILIAR WITH COPYRIGHT AND PATENT PROCEEDINGS AND INFRINGEMENT. 

WE ARE AUTHORS OF A SELF PUBLISHED BOOK, AVAILABLE IN 6 DIFFERENT LANGUAGES, WHICH WAS ILLEGALLY DOWNLOADED OVER 990,000 TIMES. THIS IS A BEST SELLER.

WE ARE THE EXCLUSIVE TATTOO ARTISTS OF JULIA GNUSE THE GUINESS BOOK MOST TATTOOED WOMAN IN THE WORLD. WE ARE NO STRANGERS TO FAME AND NOTORIETY. 

WE HAVE TOURED EXTENSIVELY IN ALL OF THE BANDS WE HAVE PLAYED IN AND ARE FAMILIAR WITH THAT PART OF THE BUSINESS AS WELL. WE HOWEVER DO NOT BOOK TOURS OR GIGS. 

WE HAVE DONE TATTOO MACHINE SEMINARS IN EVERY CONTINENT. 

THE CHANGE TO DHD RECORDS DIVISION WAS IN 2000, WHEN WE RELEASED AN EXPLODING FUCK DOLLS ANTHOLOGY CALLED "HERE'S TO YOUR FUCK!"ON OUR OWN DHD RECORDS DIVISION LABEL - A MUSICAL RECORDINGS DIVISION OF THE ESTABLISHED DHD MANUFACTURING COMPANY.
