Tru Thoughts was established in Brighton in 1999 by Robert Luis and Paul Jonas. The label began life as a way for Robert and Paul to showcase the exciting music being produced by the regular guests at their Brighton club nights, After a slew of 12inch releases, they dropped their first album, which was the debut LP from Bonobo and the rest as they say, is history. 20 years later, the label is still independent and still being run from the seaside splendour of Brighton.
