Brownswood Recordings

This label was started in 2006 by Gilles Peterson to output some artists he felt deserved attention. It follows on from the first Brownswood imprint which was a side-label of Talkin' Loud (part of Mercury) --probably the most influential label Gilles Peterson has been involved in-- which released stuff from Japanese artists in the mid-1990's (more specifically, mainly from the artist United Future Organization). The label's inspiration comes from the Brownswood Sessions that Gilles does every 3 months or so on his BBC Radio 1 'Worldwide' show. In these sessions he gets back to the roots of modern Jazz-influenced dancefloor music by playing records (strictly vinyl original pressings, of course!) that continue to inspire newer musicians & producers today....
