In 2001 Nukleuz were the worlds no1 vinyl label winning the prestigious dance label of the year at the Music Week anual awards. This award was won on selling merrit, not anyones personal tastes.

Nukleuz also began working with Frantic on a series of Frantic Euphoria albums with Ministry of Sound alongside up and coming artists Andy Whitby & Cally & Juice to superb success. In 2005 Nukleuz veered towards a music that was at the heart of its leader,Peter Pritchard ( who made his first hardcore record with Stu Allan in 1989), which was coming from within the hardcore scene and found more than they were bargaining for, large numbers of high quality records by a variety of young up and coming producers.Ffilled with enthusiasm they set about creating hardcore anthems like they had previously made the best Italian Tech Trance and UK hardHuse and created the successful Hardcore Nation CDs with Warner Music alongside Stu Allan, DJ Seduction & Robbie Long. These albums have become some of the most successul in the world of Hardcore.

The label has two of their megamixes make the UK Top 40 under the collaborative name "Nukleuz DJs"; the tracks were both entitled "DJ Nation". In order for the records to be chart eligible, the label issued six new tracks spread over three 12" vinyl singles and included the megamixes, lasting just over a minute long, on each release so that sales of all three singles would be combined and hence a higher chart position would be reached. As well as the two top 40 hits, the label had a further three top 75 hits using this strategy.
