Nation Records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nation Records is a record label set up by Kath Canoville and Aki Nawaz in 1988.

History[edit]

The label was set up after major labels declined to release their fusion of world music and dance music, an album called Fuse (1989).[1] Featuring the earliest appearance by Talvin Singh as Mahatma T, the label went on to feature the early releases of Asian Dub Foundation, Transglobal Underground, Fun-Da-Mental, Loop Guru, Hustlers HC, Natacha Atlas, Joi, Swami, TJ Rehmi and Charged.[1]
