So do you guys have any favourite record labels?

 

I really like Matador (Spoon, Sonic Youth, Pavement, Yo La Tengo etc), JagJaguwar (Bon Iver, Volcano Choir and others), Hyperdub (responsible for Burial's first release. OMG) and Flying Nun, a label which is extremely important to New Zealand Music.

 

Apologies if there is a thread already like this. I did a brief search.

Hed Kandi, Fierce Angels and Defected.:cool:

i don't use to care which label is with this or that band, but well first i can think of are:

 

subterfuge record and bcore (spanish labels) mainly, although subterfuge have some trash music there (vanexxa) :sick:

 

i don't like it when a good band changes from small to big label cause normally they change their style. :\

that's called selling out!

Modular

 

Cut Copy

Tame Impala

The Presets

Wolfmother

The Avalanches

Jajaguwar, Fat Cat, 4AD, Drag City, Flying Nun and Merge spring to mind. Jagjaguwar especially is a seal of quality.

Sub Pop (The Album Leaf, Beach House, The Shins, Death Cab for Cutie, Flight of the Conchords, Foals, Mogwai)

 

Arts & Crafts (Broken Social Scene, Feist, Stars)

 

TDB Records (Radiohead, Other Lives)

Fat Cat

Also, Paw Tracks.

Sub Pop (The Album Leaf, Beach House, The Shins, Death Cab for Cutie, Flight of the Conchords, Foals, Mogwai)

Saddle Creek is a favourite (Land of Talk), but mostly because they have really good people working there.

 

Merge (Arcade Fire)

 

to name a few more

Briiiiiiiiiiight Eyes :wacko:

 

I rather like Domino and Warp, as well as most of the labels mentioned here.

Oh, and Sub Pop of course.

I don't think there's a single artist signed to 4AD that I don't like. :awesome:
