About

“Edition Records works with artists who share a quality of intent and a vision with a drive and commitment to their art. They are deeply committed to finding their voice that’s uniquely theirs, without compromise. Our goal is to provide the link and connection between them and you, wherever you are and however you’re listening.” Dave Stapleton (Edition Records)

Edition Records is one of the defining independent labels of the modern era, where bold artistry meets purposeful curation.

Edition stands at the forefront of progressive music, connecting visionary artists with listeners around the world. Its catalogue bridges generations and geographies, spanning the UK, Europe, North America, and Japan featuring GRAMMY winners, Mercury Prize shortlisted albums, and some of the most influential voices in contemporary jazz and beyond.

Driven by trust, empathy and long-term collaboration, Edition puts artists at the centre. Artists such as Dave Holland, Chris Potter, Nils Petter Molvær, Sun-Mi Hong, Jasper Høiby, Gretchen Parlato, Joe Webb and Frida Touray embody the label’s commitment to originality, depth and storytelling.

Operating through two distinct imprints – Edition Records for contemporary jazz and improvisation, and E2 Music for emotionally rich, genre-defying sounds – the label pairs creative freedom with uncompromising detail. Guided by a belief in music’s enduring power, Edition continues to define what meaningful independent music can be.

“The British label Edition Records is a hub for the new vibrant jazz scene in the UK…” POLITIKEN NEWSPAPER (DK)

“Edition Records might be a small but growing operation, but there was a time 40 years ago when ECM Records was at much the same stage in Munich, and Edition reveals similar sixth sense for emerging innovators”. GUARDIAN
