It was reported by NME on August 7, 2007 that Anthony Wilson legend for having created Factory Records has passed away at the age of 57 from a heart attack. Having signed bands such as Joy Division, New Order and the Happy Mondays, he was such a key role on the influences on so many of the bands that I have listened to and also influenced labels that have influenced me to start my own record label. Our subculture today as we know it may not have existed if it wasn’t for this man.
