Tru Thoughts

Tru Thoughts is an independent UK label that specializes in a unique blend of jazz, breakbeat, hip-hop, soul, funk and beats. Founded in 1999 by Robert Luis (A&R) and Paul Jonas (Label Manager), this Brighton-based record label has its roots in the success of their highly respected club nights, including the legendary phonic:hoop. Originally operating from under Rob's stairs, Tru Thoughts has since moved to a more comfortable office space. The label celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2009.

With a diverse catalogue of releases, Tru Thoughts has established itself as a leading authority in the music industry. Their dedication to showcasing innovative artists and performers sets them apart from other labels. While some catalogue numbers like TRU 027 and TRU 142 have not been released yet, they continue to push boundaries and provide listeners with exceptional music experiences.

If you're looking for groundbreaking sounds that transcend genres, Tru Thoughts is your go-to destination. Explore their impressive collection of releases and discover the incredible talent they represent.

Producer and multi-instrumentalist J-Felix returns with his future blend of boogie, p-funk, disco and soul on his sophomore album Whole Again Hooligan.

Influenced by the musicianship of Roy Hargrove’s The RH Factor, James Brown and George Clinton, Joe elaborates on the concept of the record: "My mum used to call me a hooligan when I was growing up which was probably quite accurate, but there's something about finishing a creative project as a musician that makes you feel whole again”.

Whole Again Hooligan features a plethora of guest talent including Andrew Ashong (who had his first solo release on Theo Parrish’s label, Sound Signature), Brighton producer El Train, vocal flair Jerry Clavier aka Sol Goodman, soul veteran and stellar DJ, Emeson, and classically trained musician Afua. The records magic moments are catalysed through a collaborative ethos, a skill honed on J-Felix’s debut LP 101 Reasons.

Constantly soaking up a mind-boggling array of influences – through touring internationally as Alice Russell and Swindle's guitarist, being an in-demand DJ (holding residencies at Patterns, Brighton and Queen of Hoxton, London), hosting a radio show on 1BTN, supporting the likes of Roy Ayers and George Clinton, the list is endless... through which J-Felix's penchant for all things funk has been perfected.
