Founded by Douglas Grama and David Lotwin, D&D Records, which originated at the studios during the 1990s, released albums by Afu-Ra and The D&D All Stars. Other acts on the label included QNC and Mama Mystique. The recording studio managers were David "Carpi" Carpenter and Paul Twumasi. In 2003, one of the most famous D&D studios producer, Gang Starr's DJ Premier bought D&D from its owners and renamed it HeadQCourterz in honor to his friend with the same name who died the same year.
