Originally formed as an independent record label with distribution through Rough Trade Distribution, All Saints licensed the label through Hannibal Records before becoming closely associated with Warp Records for international marketing and distribution.
Its initial releases closely followed those of Opal Records which had ceased as a label in 1990, its initial release being ‘Flow Goes The Universe’ by New York artist Laraaji. Other artists followed including Biosphere, Marconi Union and Dallas Acid [2].
The label has released three artworks by Brian Eno, Mistaken Memories of Mediaeval Manhattan, Thursday Afternoon (on a single DVD) [3] and 77 Million Paintings
