Shirley Collins is a British folksinger, born on July 5, 1935 in Hastings, East Sussex, United Kingdom. She has made significant contributions to the folk music scene and is known for her captivating vocals and authentic storytelling. In the late 1950s, she collaborated with American musicologist Alan Lomax on his field recordings, further enhancing her knowledge and passion for traditional music. With a career spanning several decades, Shirley Collins continues to be an influential figure in the folk genre.

Domino is an independent label founded in Putney, South West London by *a694357* and his partner Jacqui Rice in 1993. The label initially focused on American acts such as *Sebadoh*, *Pavement* or *Royal Trux* before signing British acts in the late '90s.

The label operates a US division, located in Brooklyn, which output was initially identified by its own catalogue number schemes, DOMUS then DNO (used until 2013), when the releases handled by the UK headquarters are identified by WIG (albums) and RUG (singles and EPs) catalogue numbers.

The company operating the label, *Warp Records*, diversified, establishing a publishing arm and a series of labels (*Double Six Recordings*, *Weird World Record Co.*, *Rephlex*, ...).
