Prior to the late 80's, This label was a pirate label, But at one point they moved on to selling legal (sometimes partially legal) records.

This label's most infamous aspect is that on their compilations, Soundalike covers are usually attributed to mispellings of the original artist's name, Please keep this in mind & remember to listen to both the recording on the compilation & the original artist's version before making any edits.

Their soundalikes were mainly made by Kingdom Studio, BlissCo, Audidhm Audio, & countless other identified and unidentified companies.
Soundalikes made by Kingdom Studio & Audidhm Audio are sung by unidentified vocalists.
Soundalikes made by BlissCo were usually sung by artist 62992, A unidentified male vocalist and Roberta Bacciolo (It could also be possible some soundalikes are sung by Viviana Presutti, Their voices when compared to each other are unsettlingly extremely simular).

IMPORTANT NOTE: If another label's logo also appears on an Alpha release, Please DO NOT add it to the Label field unless you are confident that label aided in the production of the ENTIRE release, Like the countless soundalike albums produced jointly by Kingdom Studio & Alpha (ex. [r13459164]).
Alpha usually put other labels' logos on the Top, back(uncommon), spine (only on Cassettes) of Slipcases, & back of booklets to indicate that label produced the title track of the release.
Sometimes it's there to indicate that label is where all or almost all tracks are licensed from (ex. [r13094429] & [r14850988] w/ Beaver Music).
Or in rare cases, It's there to indicate that entity sponsored the release (ex. [r9547180] sponsored by MTV Music Television & [r9559130] sponsored by MTV Music Television & label 916079).
For albums & maxi-singles, and some compilations, please use your judgement.
