Founded in Los Angeles in 2009 by Reid Speed and Alexander Rosson, Play Me Records established itself during the rise of North American bass music, building a catalogue that spans drum and bass, dubstep and other heavyweight electronic styles. From the outset, the label earned a reputation for championing emerging talent alongside established names, helping introduce artists including Dillon Francis, Bro Safari, MUST DIE!, Figure and Bare to wider audiences.
While its early years were closely associated with the explosive growth of dubstep, Play Me has continued to evolve alongside the wider bass music landscape. Recent releases have placed a renewed emphasis on drum and bass, with artists such as Lee UHF, Noise Souls, Reid Speed and Dunk contributing to a catalogue that balances heavyweight dancefloor energy with technically accomplished production.
Play Me Records remains an independent imprint with a focus on club-ready music that values impact without losing musical identity. Whether releasing established names or introducing new producers, the label continues to support forward-thinking bass music while maintaining the quality-first approach that has defined its catalogue since 2009.
