Toolroom Records Establishes New London Headquarters as a Music Hub
Toolroom Records, a leading dance label, has relocated to a new headquarters in Shoreditch, East London, marking a significant step in their commitment to artist development and the UK club culture. The new premises, described by co-founder Mark Knight as a "music factory", will support all operations across Toolroom Records and Toolroom Academy [1].
The strategic move places Toolroom at the heart of London’s vibrant music ecosystem. By combining label services, management, and artist development within a single location, the new headquarters aims to foster growth while nurturing emerging talent. This integrated approach is designed to optimize creativity and professional growth [1].
The success of Toolroom can be seen in their impressive discography, which includes hits like Weiss' Feel My Needs (753,685 sales), Leftwing & Kody's I Feel It (284,885 sales), and Mark Knight & Armand Van Helden's The Music Began To Play (54,633 sales) [1].
Toolroom Academy, an integral part of the company's strategy, serves as a platform for developing emerging acts. The resources and environment of the new headquarters will further enhance its role in providing artist development, education, and industry support [1].
In addition to their in-house labels such as Toolroom, Toolroom Trax, Love & Other, Zerothree, and Fool’s Paradise, Toolroom offers label services and management for Danny Howard's Nothing Else Matters, Kaluki, Martin Ikin's Know Where, and Flamenca [1]. The management roster includes Martin Ikin, Essel, Crusy, Tony Romera, and Cassimm [1].
The new headquarters houses in-house engineers Lewis John, Ellis Moss (Producer Luke Hemmings aka Ellis Moss), and James Hurr, who are Toolroom Academy alumni [1].
Toolroom's dedication to nurturing artists is evident in their recent achievements. They were named the No.1 selling label on Beatport in 2023 and 2024 [1].
Miles Shackleton, COO of Toolroom Records, highlights the success of Toolroom Academy as a key part of their journey. Stu Knight, a member of Toolroom's senior team, summarizes their vision for Toolroom as understanding what they are to understand what they can be [1]. The Toolroom Records senior team also includes Jamie Kemp, commercial director, along with 22 full-time employees [1].
The September issue of Music Week contains more information about Toolroom's future plans [1]. The company's focus remains on creating great music for DJs and maintaining their club culture. They have pledged to "find, nurture and develop artists" to boost UK club culture [1].
