Alt Recordings

About Me

There is one word that runs throughout every second of material on Alt Recordings, from the very first EP to the latest tracks. That word is funk. It comes in many different shapes, from loose shuffle that could collapse at any given moment, through to tightly arranged groove crafted to propel the dancefloor. Even in it's deepest moments, such as the tracks on the Daniel Schneider EP, every sound is placed to stimulate the base instinct of humans to move to rhythmic sounds.

The first two compilations laid the foundations, and since then the dedicated artist releases have shaped the identity of the label. Whilst the offerings from Tom Ellis, Storlon and Daniel Schneider sound anything but alike, they share the same principle of pushing the good ship house music into uncharted realms.Send me your track
