June 2017, 1Forty added the Label arm to adjoin their successful events.

June 2018, 1Forty announces an annual birthday release, handpicking 1 track from each genre that we represent taken from 1Forty releases over that 12 month period. The artist will give that track the VIP treatment to give away for free as a thank you for the support over the course of the year.

3 Years Of 1Forty [Free DL]

Whilst Leeds has had a Grime scene that has been quietly bubbling away for a few years on the MC front, there has been very few 140 producers come through. Hayz is hellbent on changing that, having been on the 1Forty radar for some time as he initially came through as an upcoming support DJ on the Leeds circuit. His debut 1Forty release 'Hightop' came on 1FGRM004 in September 2019 which went on to become one of the most streamed Grime instrumentals of our catalogue in the past 12 months so it made perfect sense for it to be given the VIP treatment.

NLMT and FALLU made two perfect first time additions to the roster for their debut 1Forty release 'Time' delivering a classic bassline sound straight from the female vocal era reminiscent of the likes of Gemma Fox. With the labels vision and ethos firmly linked to propping up the underground genres we had to orchestrate a VIP to further support the 4x4 resurgence in 2020.

1FFNG004 saw the return of Murder He Wrote under very different circumstances. Having being one of the leading names in the UK Funky scene in recent years Murder He Wrote served up his first original UKG release and it went on to become one of the labels biggest hits amassing support across BBC Radio 1 & 6 Music with heavy support from Mary Anne Hobbs, hitting Spotify's 'New Music Friday' playlist as well as being playlisted by Rinse FM.

VIP? Say no more.

"1Forty have made quite a name for themselves with their genre-themed compilation EPs." - Complex UK

"I find it quite hard to find a lot of modern Grime with that weight it originated with, and its similar with the Funky but 1Forty seem to be finding these records and putting them out, keeping that flame alive." - Toddla T (BBC Radio 1)
