Project Mooncircle is an independent record label based in Berlin, Germany, focusing on organic and electronic music.[1]

History

Project Mooncircle was founded in 2002 by Gordon Gieseking, as an offshoot of experimental electronic Miami label Beta Bodega.[2] In 2004 Gieseking formed a partnership with the vinyl and clothing mail-order company Hip Hop Vinyl, and when Beta Bodega ceased operations in 2005, Project Mooncircle became HHV.DE's official imprint.[3] Respectively in 2009 and 2010, Project Mooncircle took up two sub-labels, dub techno imprint Project Squared[4][5] and blog/label Finest Ego,[6] and in 2014 it was featured in the XLR8R readers poll on the best independent record labels, behind Ninja Tune and Warp Records.[7]
