XL

Launched in 1989 by Richard Russell and his team, originally as an off-shoot of City Beat Records - the independent label first became known for releasing rave and dance music. But over the years, XL has expanded its repertoire and grown to become one of the leading labels in the industry, managing a roster of big and successful artists including Arca, Fontaines D.C., Radiohead, King Krule, Makaya McCraven, and many more.
