About Itchy Pig Records

Officially formed in 2011, we took a strange approach to forming the label. Concentrating initially on whether or not we could make this work by speaking with various artists and acts about our frustration of getting true talent to the forefront of what is ‘popular’ music. We managed to get many unique and interesting artists involved from the start. This made it impossible not to take the challenge on and we would have been clearly stupid and thoughtless not to take up the challenge.

We had to work around many factors. Firstly, music is music. Having never really been interested in the format of genres we had to work to this ethos. Intelligent music with a great understanding of style and groove is what we wanted, regardless of what style the artist is into. Those involved in creating Itchy Pig have always immersed themselves in music from all areas of the spectrum. Going to great nights out and sweating out all problems in every day life is at the forefront of any good night and this is how we shall run ours – fun, sweat and good times.
