Too Pure was a London-based independent record label formed in 1990 by Richard Roberts and Paul Cox. The label gained prominence after the release of PJ Harvey's debut album Dry in 1992, with funding support from Ivo Watts-Russell, founder of 4AD. Too Pure later became majority owned by the Beggars Group. In April 2008, Beggars Group decided to retire the Too Pure imprint and transferred key artists to their subsidiary label, 4AD. The label operated a monthly subscription service called The Singles Club until December 2017 when it ceased operations. Today, its catalogue is part of Beggars Arkive.

In 1998, drummer Emma Gaze and multi-instrumentalist Verity Susman formed the British indie rock band Electrelane in Brighton, England. With various personnel changes over the years, including guitarist Mia Clarke replacing Debbie Ball, the band released their debut album. Bassist Rachel Dalley played on early singles and the first two studio albums, "Rock it to the Moon" and "The Power Out." In 2004, fan-turned-member Ros Murray took over bass guitar duties. After a last home show in Brighton in 2007, Electrelane went on an indefinite hiatus.
The band reformed briefly in 2011 for a few gigs and summer festivals. The following year saw more summer shows, including performances in Australia and Hong Kong. Since then, Electrelane has returned to an indefinite hiatus after that final tour. In 2013, record label Too Pure reissued their studio albums on vinyl.

electrelane are a band with a relatively long history - three albums ('rock it to the moon' 2001, 'the power out' 2004, 'axes' 2005 and an e.p. 'i want to be the president' 2002) as well several singles over six years - yet their consistently uncompromising attitude and ability to release outstandingly fresh and unique records has kept them somewhat of an enigma, with each record feeling like a re-birth and the beginning of something very special. 'singles, b-sides and live' is not only a celebration of electrelane's diverse work but also the first time that rare, non-album tracks have been available on one compilation. it includes limited 7" releases from fierce panda and indenial as well as singles released on electrelane's own label let's rock before signing to present label too pure in 2003.
