+**Welcome to the musical side of the Shork Group!**
+From cheerful dance anthems and nostalgic 90s Eurodance to traditional brass music, cinematic soundscapes and completely unexpected musical experiments — Shork Group Music is where the fins start to groove.
+Music produced under the Shork Group umbrella is created for entertainment, storytelling and the sheer joy of combining things that probably should never have been combined.
+> **Think global. Act local. Dance everywhere.**
+===== Shork Group Records =====
+**Shork Group Records** is the fictional music label of the Shork Group and serves as the home for our musical productions.
+The label is not restricted to one particular genre. Quite the opposite: Shork Group Records celebrates musical diversity, experimentation and humorous genre collisions.
+Our catalogue may include:
+* :music:90s_eurodance: energetic Eurodance and Happy Hardcore
+* :music:rock: Rock and Heavy Metal inspired productions
+* :music:folk: Traditional and folk-inspired music
+* :music:classical: Choral and orchestral compositions
+* :music:ambient: Atmospheric and cinematic music
+* :music:experimental: Musical experiments that defy categorisation

+What happens when the darkness of extreme heavy metal meets a cheerful Central European brass-band festival?
+You get **Das Gift der Nacht**.

+**Genre:** Egerländer / Bohemian Brass Polka
+**Vocals:** German male lead + men's chorus
+**Tempo:** 124 BPM
+**Key:** F major

+===== The Shork Group Sound =====
+There is no single "Shork Group sound".
+That is precisely the point.
+Shork Group Music is built around **musical contrast**. A serious subject may be presented in a cheerful arrangement. A dark story may receive an irresistibly catchy melody. A traditional genre may suddenly collide with something completely unexpected.
+The result should be:
+* memorable
+* entertaining
+* slightly absurd
+* musically coherent
+* unmistakably Shork
+===== Music & Stories =====
+Many Shork Group productions are more than individual songs. They are part of the wider [[shork_group:start|Shork Group universe]].
+Songs can accompany characters, companies, events, stories or fictional productions within the Shork universe.
+Some songs are deliberately written as if they were genuine commercial releases from another era — complete with imaginary record labels, album artwork, radio edits, club mixes and maxi-single editions.

+The visual identity of Shork Group Music is just as important as the music itself.
