Gearbox is a British independent label founded in 2009 by Darrel Sheinman. Based in London and Tokyo, Gearbox releases new music by contemporary artists as well as previously-unreleased archival recordings. They are well known for their jazz releases, including the "BBC Jazz For Moderns" series taken from jazz programmes on the BBC. The label also has a series called Japanese Editions featuring legendary performances at Ronnie Scott's jazz club in London.

In addition to their record releases, Gearbox operates a mastering studio located at Tileyard Studios in King's Cross, London. Equipped with vintage analog equipment, including a 1967 Haeco Scully lathe with Westrex amplifiers, they offer high-quality lacquer cutting and mastering services. The studio also provides direct-to-disc or tape recording using the adjacent recording studio.

For its own releases, Gearbox Records collaborates with Optimal Media GmbH. Known engineers associated with the label include Darrel Sheinman (Daz), Caspar Sutton-Jones (caspar@gearbox), Cicely Balston (2013-2016), Carla Iannace (since 2021 - carla@gearbox), and Kristina Rhodes (2021-2023). The studio is credited on releases as Gearbox Records Studio or Gearbox Recording.

Five-piece alt-jazz pioneers Butcher Brown have found time to cut a direct-to-disc album at Gearbox Studios; this on top of members like keys player/producer DJ Harrison releasing an album on Stones Throw and drummer Corey Fonville touring with Christian Scott. Recorded at Mark Ronson’s Zelig Studios and cut live to disc using Gearbox’s legendary all-analogue signal chain. Modern, hip-hop inflected funk with rich echoes of Weather Report, Earth Wind and Fire and a bit of Zappa.
