AMENDMENT: The wording of the label's description has been changed to clarrify the percieved South East Asian focus. It now reads that 26-year-veteran Laing has a thing for the region. "Run by a long-time industry veteran with 26 years indie-sector experience and a thing for outsiders, underdogs and South East Asia (hence the name…)."
The label has also added a signing, the Chris Robinson Brotherhood.
