Seed Records 1972-1981

Seed Records was a record label started by Paul Clark in 1972. The label ran until circa 1981, when he started Minstrel's Voyage Music. Seed Records was distributed by Word Records and ABC Records.

Seed Records 1999-present

A London based record label also named "Seed Records" was set up in 1999 by Rich Bevan and Joshu Doherty of electronica duo Posthuman, who also promoted of a series of events called 'Seed Showcases', including UnderLondonGround, held in the disused underground Aldwych tube station. Artists that played these events included the label's roster of artists, alongside guests such as Aphex Twin, Alison Goldfrapp, Richard X, Plaid, Luke Vibert, T.Rauschmeire, Funkstörung, Mark Moore and many more.

Joshu Doherty left Seed in late 2006, turning over control to Bruce McClure, who had been involved with the label and live events for several years. He is faithfully continuing the label's modus operandi "To Seed, to Grow" of promoting unknown and up & coming acts by releasing their music alongside that of established artists.

The original roster of artists who released music on Seed includes Cursor Miner, Ardisson, Kansas City Prophets, The Doubtful Guest, Digitonal, and Posthuman. A number of these acts have now gone on to sign deals with larger labels.

Seed's current roster includes Zombi, Legowelt, Tobias Schmidt, EYES, Skitanja and others such as Italo Disco producer Alexander Robotnick and world renowned techno artists such as Mark Verbos and Neil Landstrumm. The quirky folktronica duo 'Sleeps In Oysters,' is the latest signing to the label.

Many of the Seed Records releases are highly limited in number, and sought after by collectors and completists. The main genres covered by the label are electronica, techno, post-rock, and IDM.
