SPEAKER TOPIC
HOSPITAL RECORDS
Hospital Records is an independent drum & bass label based in East London. The label was founded in 1996 by Tony Colman (London Elektricity) and Chris Goss, and has since grown into one of the most prolific imprints within UK dance music.
From an unknown High Contrast handing Chris Goss his first-ever mini disc at a record shop during the early 2000s, to a bedroom producer named Netsky posting CD-R demos and becoming the label’s first artist to go platinum – the history of Hospital Records is long & storied. Now, celebrating three decades in the game, they continue to stand tall as the world’s largest independent D&B label, carrying that stature with strength and integrity.
Artist development has always been part of its DNA – discovering and bringing through names such as Logistics, Fred V & Grafix and Camo & Krooked. More recently, the label is home to artists including the likes of Metrik, P Money & Whiney, Flava D, Hoax and Gabriella Bongo.
