Blue Room Released

Blue Room Released was an electronic music label that started operating in 1994 and was based in Shoreditch, London (1995-2000) with an office in San Francisco (1997-2000).
Went dormant circa 2002 and was re-started as Blue Room Sounds in June 2020.

It was founded by Simon Ghahary, the designer and founder of Blue Room Loudspeakers who was responsible for the design and identity of the "pod" speaker series.

In 1996 Robert Trunz backed the venture independently with Ghahary at the helm who also did A&R together with label manager Mick Paterson (formerly from Nova Mute/Mute Records) and was dedicated to the electronic underground, releasing techno, trance, dub, and ambient music. Its original sound was tribal percussion with electronica. The label featured artists from in and around Europe and around the world.
Blue Room had a live scene, touring as a label around the world with live acts and DJs. Parties also took place regularly and locally in London, organized with Ahimsa Productions.

With its office in San Francisco ran by Nick Crayson and the Blue Room Americas team, including Adam Ohana. it supported the very first music appearing within the Burning Man festival.
This platform would later grant Robert Trunz access to Blue Room music producers and artists for collaborations with his international roster of musicians from the MELT2000 label.

Ghahary was also in charge of directing its visual imprint, designing record covers, (initially with Think Electric), adverts and posters merchandise.
The label had financial backing from the B&W loudspeaker company, based in Steyning, West Sussex, UK (near Brighton). It is noted on some releases as a subsidiary of B&W Loudspeakers Ltd.
