Established in 1987 by Eddie Piller (with Gilles Peterson on board as additional A&R until around 1990). Dean Rudland also managed the label in the early years. It was set up as a tongue-in-cheek response to the 'Acid House' explosion. The label, armed only with a music policy that stated 'no House music!', rapidly began producing records that, although they often contained very little 'Jazz' and even less 'Acid', became the ultimate symbol of 1990s chic. This becoming evident when the term 'Acid Jazz', rather than simply refering to this record label, began being applied, both by the press and on the street, to any record that had an 'Acid Jazz' feel to it.
