Bringing trip hop back,
one full record at a time.
An independent label and studio for trip hop & adjacent music. Home to long-form storytellers who still believe in the album.
01 — OUR MISSION
We want to put trip hop and its adjacent sounds back on the map, by supporting artists who still care about the craft of a complete record. We're here for the long-form storytellers who still believe in the magic of EPs and albums, not the singles built to feed an algorithm. We offer full-suite mixing, mastering, design and promotion, and turn your music into a tangible legacy on vinyl, CD and cassette. You keep 100% of profits, because it's your art. We just help your legacy come to life.
