Ninja Tune is a London-based independent record label started in 1991 by DJs Matt Black and Jonathan More, better known as Coldcut, with a strong leaning towards Electronic, abstract hip-hop, instrumental hip hop, Nu-Jazz, drum and bass, and chillout music. The label has developed a number of DJs, producers, and live acts. Ninja Tune's sister imprints, NTone (now defunct) and Big Dada, specialise in experimental electronic music and hip hop, respectively. The label has a satellite office in Montreal, Quebec, owned and managed by Jeff Waye. In 2006, a new imprint, Counter Records, was set up to release debut album of Pop Levi, with artists to follow in a rock music vein. The first release on the imprint was Pop Levi's "Blue Honey" in September 2006. This will be followed by a second single and an album in January 2007.
