Circus Records

Circus Records is an independent record label founded in 2009 by Joshua “Flux Pavilion” Steele, Shaun “Doctor P” Brockhurst, Simon Swan, and Earl Falconer. The label is closely associated with the work of its founders, particularly Steele and Brockhurst, whose releases helped define its early profile and public visibility.

The label’s identity is tied to bass-driven electronic music and the producer-led culture around it. Flux Pavilion and Doctor P have been central to that image, both as artists and as founders shaping the label’s output. Circus Records’ reach has also been reflected in moments of crossover attention: Kanye West and Jay-Z sampled Flux Pavilion’s “I Can’t Stop” in “Who Gon Stop Me,” bringing a Circus-associated track into a high-profile mainstream context. Steele’s extended play Blow the Roof further marked that visibility by charting at number 60 on the UK Albums Chart.

Beyond its founders, Circus Records has released music by a range of artists connected to its bass and dubstep-oriented orbit, including Conrank, Phocust, Selekta, Viskus, sharlitz web, and Ace Aura. These names illustrate the label’s role as a platform for producer-focused electronic releases alongside the work of its best-known co-founders.

Circus Records is associated with the United States in available metadata, and it maintains an official web presence at http://www.circus-records.co.uk. The label has also been described as co-owned by Earl Falconer and DJ Swan-E, aligning with Falconer’s role as a co-founder and highlighting the involvement of artists and DJs in its ownership and direction.
