Brainlove Records is a British independent record label with a DIY ethic, based in London, England. The label releases experimental indie, pop and electronic music.

Brainlove Records has received positive press from media sources such as NME ("relentlessly brilliant"),[1] BBC Radio 1[2] and BBC 6 Music.[3] Brainlove also runs live shows, including showcases at SPOT Festival in Denmark and Iceland Airwaves[4] in Reykjavik, as well as club nights with White Heat, Club NME at Koko and La Route Du Rock, and a two-day label music festival, held annually at the Brixton Windmill.

The label published an article on its early history in The Quietus in August 2010.[5]
