Founding
Robert Fripp has been a guitarist for King Crimson since the late 1960s. During the late 1980s, Fripp sought royalties allegedly owed by E.G. Records; the parties reached a settlement after seven years. Fripp founded Discipline Global Mobile (DGM) as an independent music label in 1992.
Fripp dissolved King Crimson in 1974, and relaunched the band in 1981 with the Discipline album. Discipline's original cover featured a Celtic knot, which was later replaced by a similar knotwork design which Fripp commissioned from Steve Ball. Ball's design was adopted as the logo for Discipline Global Mobile.

Famous quotes containing the word founding:
“... there is no way of measuring the damage to a society when a whole texture of humanity is kept from realizing its own power, when the woman architect who might have reinvented our cities sits barely literate in a semilegal sweatshop on the Texas- Mexican border, when women who should be founding colleges must work their entire lives as domestics ...”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The responsible business men of this country put their shoulders to the wheel. It is in response to this universal demand that we are founding today, All-American Airways.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“The Founding Fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called an education. School is where you go between when your parents can’t take you and industry can’t take you.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
