Pete Waterman Entertainment (PWE) is the production company one-time pop and dance record label owned by pop mogul Pete Waterman. The label, originally PWL (Pete Waterman Limited), is most famous for being the home of hit record producers Stock Aitken Waterman. ==History== After producing many hits for other record companies, PWL launched its own label in 1987 (PWL Records) with the balearic classic "I Just Can't Wait" by Mandy Smith. The next single was the biggest selling single of the year: I Should Be So Lucky by Kylie Minogue. As a record label, PWL enjoyed success with Australian artists such as Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan and Dutch dance group 2 Unlimited. As a production house they produced hits for English artists such as Rick Astley, Dead or Alive and Bananarama on other record labels. In the USA, PWL America was established in 1989 and specialized primarily in hip-hop music. In 1992, it was renamed Chemistry Records Ltd., but it shut its doors in 1993. It was distributed in that territory by Mercury/PolyGram Records. In the early 1990s, Pete Waterman formed a new label called PWL International in partnership with Warner Music. However with other projects taking up Waterman's time, his involvement in the label decreased, and PWL International Ltd. became the Warner label Coalition. The record label is still in operation today and operates the label EBUL through former labels Jive Records and Zomba. (Now labels by Sony Music Entertainment.) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pete Waterman Entertainment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
