So for all those who have watched the first "Unique Beats presents..." video (if you haven't get yourself over to the video page and let us know what you think) you may have heard us mention that Alex Tronic Records was the only electronica label in Edinburgh...we lied, well not intentially we just prefer not to do any research. 

Afer finding our about Abaga Records we checked them out and listened to the banging tracks they're putting out.  We shall be interviewing them on the next podcast and we'll be letting them pick the tunes!  Very exciting.

In the meantime check them out here http://www.abagarecords.com
