Headspace Recordings
Posted by DJ-ONE | January 8, 2009I just created a new categorie: “Featured labels” and we’ll use it to feature labels we like and to share our passion for music and its industry.
The first episode of this serie is Headspace Recordings, founded in 1996 in Cardiff by Tom Churchill and Raeph Powell. It has been described in DJ Magazine as ‘one of the world’s finest deep techno outlets’. Past releases have featured tracks and mixes from artists such as CiM, aubrey, funk d’void, morgan geist, hanna, dennis desantis and tom churchill and have been supported by djs such as laurent garnier, andrew weatherall, john tejada, daniel bell, dan curtin, chris duckenfield and tyler stadius.
Headspace’s sister label, Emoticon, was launched in 2001 to focus on soulful techno, broken beats and abstract electronica, and its fourteen releases to date have featured artists such as russ gabriel, future beat alliance, total science, jeff samuel and double helix.
As of Summer 2006, Headspace Recordings and Emoticon Recordings stopped releasing any more records. After 10 years, three artist albums, a compilation cd and 34 12″ singles they’ve decided to call it a day.
