When we started Trouble in the East Records five years ago, we did not have a very detailed operational plan in mind, nor did we intend to target a specific style or sound. Our goal was rather to create a platform for our own work and to share it with like-minded colleagues and friends. As a result of that, a substantial part of our catalogue features exponents of the Berlin improvised music scene.

On the whole, we like to be surprised by proposal we find fresh, -personal and honest and we aim to keep an open attitude while maintaining a balance between identity and diversity.
