Crammed is recognized as one of the most exciting, adventurous and boundary-breaking independent labels worldwide. Crammed has kept reinventing itself, and has been coming up with new forms of fusion, mixing elements of world music, rock and electronica ever since its inception in the early ’80s, often anticipating the musical movements which bloomed during the next two decades.

Based in Brussels, Belgium, yet resolutely cosmopolitan-minded, Crammed has been working with artists from all over the world. The 450+ records (around 250 albums and 200 singles) released by Crammed to date include Eighties fusion milestones such as LPs by Zazou Bikaye, Minimal Compact, Bel Canto, Tuxedomoon, Aksak Maboul, The Honeymoon Killers, and the influential Made To Measure composers’ series (37 albums of challenging instrumental music); prominent world music artists such as Zap Mama, Taraf de Haïdouks, Sussan Deyhim, Hector Zazou; electronic music innovators Carl Craig, 4hero/Tek 9, Juryman, Snooze, DJ Morpheus & his Freezone series (which all came out on the SSR imprint).

In 1998, Crammed created Ziriguiboom, a sub-label dedicated to those new Brazilian sounds which fit so perfectly with the Crammed ethos, with their sophisticated fusion of roots, pop and electronic elements.
