Speaking to RA, Nair said: "I have a growing number of tracks I've made that are maybe a bit too pushed or silly or cinematic or otherwise unacceptable for any of the labels I usually submit music to.

"These always happen to be my favourite tracks and the ones that I have the most fun making. So I wanted to make a label for this type of music.

"This first year will be mostly self-releases. We'll be doing approximately one single track release each month."
