LTM Recordings, originally known as Les Temps Modernes, was founded in Edinburgh in 1983 by James Nice. The label's early releases showcased the talents of Section 25, The Happy Family, and Crispy Ambulance. After relocating to Brussels for four years in 1987, Nice also worked for Les Disques du Crepuscule and later PIAS. LTM was reactivated in 1997 with a focus on CD reissues from the bankrupt Factory Records and its European counterpart Les Disques du Crépuscule. Over time, the label expanded its scope to include new wave, electronic, and post-punk artists along with new recordings and DVDs.

In 2008, LTM launched the compilation series Auteur Labels featuring volumes dedicated to New Hormones, Crepuscule, Factory Records, Factory Benelux, Independent Project, and Object Music. Additionally, LTM has shown an interest in experimental artists from the 20th century such as Erik Satie, Wyndham Lewis,
Marcel Duchamp,
and William S. Burroughs. They have published audio works by these artists alongside compilations representing Futurist,
Dada,
Surrealist,
Bauhaus,
and De Stijl movements. Notably,the Boutique Label operates as a sub-division of LTM.

Ultramarine is a London and Essex-based UK duo formed in 1989 by Ian Cooper and Paul Hammond. Both members were previously part of the band A Primary Industry. Their early releases were on the Brussels-based label Les Disques du Crépuscule and later on Brainiak Records, closely affiliated with The Brain club in Soho, London. They gained recognition for their second album, which was described as "pastoral techno" by Simon Reynolds. Ultramarine has released several albums over the years, including collaborations with Robert Wyatt.

In 2011, after a 13-year hiatus, Ultramarine returned with two new singles followed by their sixth album in 2013. Their music combines elements of acid-house and folk-jazzy ambience to create a unique sound that has captivated audiences worldwide.

LTM Publishing (Les Temps Modernes) released a collection of remixes and alternative versions from Ultramarine's early-90s period in 2003. The group's discography also includes reissues of previous albums to cater to fans who have been eagerly awaiting their return.

Remastered. The 1992 album from the electronic duo that was originally on Rough Trade. Like acid house suffused with the folky jazz ambience of the Canterbury scene. This is a proto ambient classic that was not appreciated first time around. On LTM.
