Ninja Tune

Ninja Tune is an independent record label based in London, England. Established in 1990 by the duo known as Coldcut, Ninja Tune was created as a platform to release underground music free from the constraints of major labels. Inspired by a visit to Japan, Coldcut sought to pioneer the emerging hip-hop/electro scene of the eighties.

The label's success can be attributed to its constantly growing roster of diverse artists and their innovative approach to music and multimedia. With the combined expertise of Black and More, along with the graphic vision of Openmind and sound business practices, Ninja Tune has become known for producing quality music while providing unparalleled support to its artists.

Notable releases include DJ Food's 'Jazz Brakes' series, which showcased instrumental hip-hop cuts produced by Coldcut. Through their dedication to musical excellence and artist empowerment, Ninja Tune has solidified its position as a leading force in the independent music industry.

Young Fathers is a psychedelic hip hop trio formed in Edinburgh, Scotland in 2008. With their unique blend of rap and singing, their music defies classification, drawing influences from genres such as hip hop, soul, folk, indie, trip hop and African music.

Young Fathers return with Cocoa Sugar - the twelve track album is released via Ninja Tune and follows the group’s previous two albums; 2014’s Mercury Prize-winning Dead and 2015’s White Men Are Black Men Too. Written and recorded throughout 2017 in the band’s basement studio and HQ, Cocoa Sugar sees Young Fathers operating with a newfound clarity and direction, and is without doubt their most confident and complete statement to date. For all the more accessible moments, there still lurks a heart of darkness inside.
