[2] Originally a part of London Records' label roster, FFRR is currently a sublabel of Parlophone, a division of Warner Music Group.

Alongside these mostly singles-releases, a string of genre-defining compilations showcasing scenes like Chicago house music[4] and the Baleraric[5] sounds from Ibiza's dancefloors.

Notable examples include Metalheadz' 1995 release of Goldie's debut album Timeless and the 1996 compilation Platinum Breakz, a compilation which importantly introduced a larger shift in Drum n' Bass from the more hectic post-Jungle sound of running breakbeat samples to the more precise and surgical sound often named Tech-Step.

[16] In 2021, the label was re-branded, with the ear replaced by a simple word-mark logo, "ffrr" written in lower-case sans-serif, inside a circle.

In 2019, the label was taken over by Andy Daniell, formally of Defected Records and got a relaunch in 2021 with a new updated logo created in association with designer Trevor Jackson.

[22][23][24][25][26] The first releases under this new brand identity will be DJ Morgan Geist's Storm Queen project with "For A Fool" and the "Loving Touch EP" from Burns.
