IAMSOUND Records is a Los Angeles, California, USA-based independent label, which was founded in 2006 by Niki Roberton, as a part of Worlds End, USA[1] (one of the largest US talent management companies for producers). Roberton continues to run the label, with Paul Tao.[2]

While the label endeavours to promote local indie music, with LA-based acts (e.g. Lord Huron, Io Echo and Fool's Gold), its pre-eminent signings include English artists Florence and the Machine, Little Boots and Charli XCX.

In 2010, the label released a series of vinyl and digital singles called the L.A. Collection, featuring notable LA-based musicians through a singles club,[2] although not in the same subscription-only singles club sense that Sub Pop Records used to have.

In 2012, Iamsound collaborated with the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art for a gallery/concert series.[3]
