AFM Records is pleased to announce a new strategic North American partnership with
Dustin Hardman.  Dustin is known for handling press promotions with Frontiers Records and as a former employee of Nuclear Blast Records GMBH.

A label spokesman of AFM says: "We are happy that we have found an experienced partner for the U.S. who knows the market for two decades and out of his personal taste likes most of the bands in our roster as well. We are really looking forward to working with him and expanding the label's presence and reputation in North America."   Dustin Hardman comments, "It’s an honor to be part of a great team.  Our collaboration will strengthen the label and our artists.   The remaining schedule for 2012 and 2013 will be an exciting year for AFM Records!!!" Based in Hamburg, Germany, AFM Records was founded in 1996 and celebrated last year its' 15th anniversary.
