History
History
Circus Records was founded in 2009 to release "really good dancefloor music that was also appealing to more casual listeners" and to usher the "second wave of dubstep". In 2022, Circus Records announced a new sublabel called "Circus Electric" as a place for their more experimental, eclectic, "bold, [and] boundary-pushing" releases.
