Transgressive Records is an independent record label based in London, England formed in 2004. Founders Tim Dellow, and Toby L first met at a Bloc Party gig organised by Toby's rockfeedback website.[1] The first release on the label was 1am by The Subways, released in September 2004. Tim says of their formation: "we wanted to find an ethical, cool way to have a kind of old fashioned career in music through releasing great records."[2] The company has since formed Transgressive Management (looking after Johnny Flynn, Marques Toliver and Jodie Marie) and Transgressive Publishing (whose roster includes Noisettes, Mystery Jets, Two Door Cinema Club amongst others).
The company has signed in excess of thirty acts and has released over 100 different records.
September 2009 marked the label's fifth anniversary. To celebrate the birthday, Transgressive staged three large concerts in London - two at Heaven, featuring headline sets from staple artists Young Knives and Foals, and one at Union Chapel, co-headlined by Johnny Flynn and then-newest signing Graham Coxon.
