History

[edit]

The label was founded in mid-2014 by childhood friends Sander van Dijck and Thorwald van den Akker. van Dijck stated that one of the reasons for starting the label was because 'no label has ever given me [him] that full creative control I crave.'[3]

On 30 July 2014, they released their first single "The First Route" by Duskus[4] which they redistributed on 29 October 2015.[5]

On 15 July 2016, the label released its first ever compilation album "Gouldian Finch"[6] with lead single "Still Looking" by San Holo.[7] "Still Looking" was released on 7 June 2016 and topped the Hype Machine charts for original releases shortly after its release.[8]

On 22 November 2016, the label released the single "Light" by San Holo which topped the Hype Machine charts shortly after its release. It also debuted on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic songs in #38 the tracking week of 17 December 2016 before rising to #26 the following tracking week and breaking into the top 20 the week of 31 December.[9] "Light" marked the first bitbird and San Holo release to chart on any Billboard charts.[10]
