Circus Company

Circus Company Circus Company is an independent French label, founded in 2000 in Paris. With an international audience and repertoire, it is currently run by Mathias Duchemin.

Although it began its activities as part of the "minimal house" scene, its productions soon reached broader horizons, blending house music tones with the heritage of funk, jazz and a touch of experimentation. Inspired by musicians such as Matthew Herbert, Losoul and Mr Oizo, its first EPs were released in 2001, followed in 2003 by a first album by Ark, a French artist whose inventiveness, curiosit

y and eccentricity would provide a lasting influence on the label. In 2006, Dave Aju was the first foreign artist to be signed to Circus Company, followed by My My, Seth Troxler and Guillaume & The Coutu Dumonts. Artists from Germany or Canada, alongside French artists such as Nôze or dOP, brought a new energy to Circus Company, whose activities soon reached clubs such as the Batofar, the Nouveau Casino, the Rex Club and the international scene. Over the years, the label has broadened its musical palette. Nôze, Les Fils du Calvaire, dOP, Dani Siciliano or Ezéchiel Pailhès, have explored electronic music at the crossroads of pop music and chanson, often with a sense of humour and inventiveness. A dynamics that brought international success to the label in 2011 with Nicolas Jaar's first album, Nôze’s three albums (associating for the first time house music and the French language), and dOP’s fiery live performances. In its twenty years of existence, with a hundred EPs, twenty albums and two sub-labels (Tzar Music and Another), Circus Company has become one of the French independent labels that successfully resisted the stylistic and economic shifts of electronic music, without ever compromising its artistic and aesthetic choices, alongside similar references such as Versatile or Tigersushi.

OUT NOW

‘The Garden Suite’ by Nitai Hershkovits & Daniel Dor

Nitai & Daniel tunnel into and explore a mystifying, experimental, Moog-based sound with The Garden Suite, their second full collaboration after Dor’s Four Petals. Taking cues from synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil, the duo created their Suite with patience and curiosity — pushing the boundaries of sound, mapping melodies onto rhythmic patterns. “Sitting late at night, going deep on the keys felt like a ceremony,” says Hershkovits.

For this unique release, we're happy to announce a debut collaboration between Raw Tapes and Circus Company to press a limited-edition vinyl, now available for pre-order.

‘Waltz of the Clocks’ by Nitai Hershkovits & Daniel Dor is OUT NOW

For the second single from their forthcoming album, The Garden Suite, Nitai and Daniel present a choreographed interplay of musical clocks, where melodies emerge as they beat in and out of sync. The result is a glimpse into the innovative, almost alchemical process that defines The Garden Suite.

Full album drops November 13th. Vinyl available December 13th ~ debut collaboration of Raw Tapes x Circus Company.

Very happy to announce the release of The Garden Suite by Nitai Hershkovits & Daniel Dor Music on November 13th 2024.

This is the first collaborative album from producer/keyboardist Nitai Hershkovits and drummer/multi-instrumentalist Daniel Dor. After releasing his latest album on the legendary jazz imprint ECM earlier this year, Nitai teams up with the immensely talented Daniel Dor. After having performed live alongside Avishai Cohen and Rejoicer, this collaboration produced by Nitai Hershkovits marks a new chapter in their musical journey. Inspired by synth pioneer Malcolm Cecil and composers like Benjamin Britten or Frederick Delius, they approached the album as an orchestral work, with the Moog as their main instrument.

Their first single, "Hidden Glow" is now out. With its summery tones and a lush blend of Moog synths and jazz harmonies, this track blurs the lines between jazz, classical, and electronic music, inviting listeners on a genre-defying sonic journey.
