Heist Recordings was founded by Detroit Swindle as a means to gain full control over their own releases, and to create a stage for likeminded musicians to showcase their music. From the first release on, Detroit Swindle’s “Break up to make up” EP in summer 2013, Heist has been a go to label for proper underground house and electronic music. Now, 20 releases and 3 compilations in, Heist has brought forward artists like Max Graef, Frits Wentink, Nebraska, Adesse Versions, Fouk, Brame & Hamo, Nachtbraker and Andy Hart and continues to search for new talent, with Lars & Maarten fully focused on the A&R side of the label.
