History
editThe Numbers record label was formed in 2010 with the combining of three record labels, Wireblock, Dress 2 Sweat and Stuff.[2][4] Wireblock was run by Jack Revill and brothers Calum and Neil Morton; Dress 2 Sweat was also run by Jack Revill; and Stuff was run by Richard Chater.[3][5] These labels had released music by Rustie and Hudson Mohawke before they signed to Warp. The first release by Numbers was 'If U Want Me' by Deadboy.[4]
In 2013, Numbers, along with Dedbeat, started a weekender festival called 'Pleasure Principle'.[6]
