Fellaheen Records was an Australian record label run by Steven Stavrakis and Stephen Pavlovic. [1]
The label was founded in 1993 after Stavrakis' closed his previous label Waterfront Records. [2] The new label released music from local and international acts, including Australians Fur, Budd, Sourpuss, Ben Lee, Magic Dirt, [3] [4] and was considered more "indie" than Waterfront. [5]
In 1995 they released the Beastie Boys' Aglio E Olio EP as a lathe cut clear vinyl record, [6] with some being shared with the Beastie Boys' label Grand Royal. [7] Three other lathe records were released for bands Gerling, Pavement, and Sourpuss. [6] The label also released other Grand Royal albums by DJ Hurricane and Luscious Jackson, often with exclusives tracks. [8] [9] Grand Royal in turn released Ben Lee's debut album in America, [10] and Fellaheen is credited with starting Ben Lee's career. [11]
Adam Yee was Assistant Managing Director/ A & R at Fellaheen Records for three and a half years, but left in August 1997. [12] Later that month, Fellaheen Records' operations were taken over by Shock Records, [13] where they were looked after by Tom Larnach-Jones. [14] Shock later owned the label outright. [15] Following this, Pavlovic started another label Modular Recordings in 1998. [16] Stavrakis worked at Modular briefly before starting In-Fidelity Recordings with Bruce Milne in 2002. [17] [18]
