Stones Throw Records
Founded by producer and DJ Peanut Butter Wolf, Stones Throw Records has built an indie music empire by supporting diverse, cutting-edge artists and spreading the word through vinyl, merchandise and events. Touchstone releases include albums by Madvillain, J Dilla, Madlib, NxWorries, Knxwledge, Sudan Archives, Mayer Hawthorne, Dâm-Funk and Aloe Blacc, all widely considered modern musical masterpieces.
Championing independent music since 1996
Stones Throw and its artists helped create the blueprint for contemporary independent music culture, and the label's massive influence was spotlighted in the 2014 feature-length documentary Our Vinyl Weighs a Ton. Roland SP instruments have been key creative catalysts for the label's roster and fans, who continue to unlock new musical frontiers using the portable samplers' fluid workflow and go-everywhere design.
