Dragonfly Records

world's first psychedelic trance label

About Me

Youth’s life long interest in the power and possibilities of tribal and hypnotic rhythms, coupled with his love of the burgeoning dance movement, was the catalyst which inspired him to set up the legendary Butterfly Studios in Brixton (London), and consequently Dragonfly Records, the world’s first psychedelic trance label.
Since then Dragonfly has built a reputation second to none. The Dragonfly back catalogue including the flourishing sister labels Liquid Sound (chillout) and Kamaflage (progressive) consists of more than 40 classic albums that chart the history of the trance scene from its underground roots to its global popularity today.
The ethos of Dragonfly is to create an environment for all the untapped emerging global talent, enabling their music to be heard by a worldwide audience without compromising or diluting their creativity.
