If I'm ought to explain this with record labels, I choose Time Unlimited, since I know their releases for a bit: Time Unlimited used to be a label releasing Acid and Hard Trance in the 90s. The quality of their releases was actually suitable for commercial market, but it seems like they weren't popular in media at these times. Around the time of the mid 90s EPs of their artists were also released as CD-versions, so no-one could say they couldn't have. Times before and times after this wasn't the case. Beside their label compilations, material of their artists was only released on vinyl (if it did not appear on another compilation). Their most famous artist was somebody called "Nostrum".
There (later) has been harder stuff than theirs on the market, which really would have found its admirers only among certain scenes. Time Unlimited's material was not of that kind, it could have also ended up "in the charts". But as it seems, it mostly wasn't wider known than in the clubs.
