Hand and ClaudeYoung) and Chez Damier remixing Can't Live Without Your Love addingto the profile of the label. Meanwhile, Kelli herself also startedto remix for other artists, while tracks of hers got picked upby foreign labels (e.g. Mystery, released on Berlin's Tresor Records).
Because of the growing success, Kelli decided to expand her horizonsunder the company name Hitmusic, taking on new labels such as379 West, Matrix and Jagged Edge Records. End of last year thefirst K. Hand record on R & S Records' subsidiary Global Cuts(a double offering containing the tracks Rodeo and The Tunnel,each one in three mixes) saw the light of day.
