Founded in 1995 by Clayton Hines and Mark Hill, Renegade Hardware became one of the most influential labels in the darker and more technical side of drum & bass. Originally launched as an outlet for cutting-edge jungle and drum & bass, the label quickly established a reputation for uncompromising releases, futuristic artwork and a distinctive underground identity.
Throughout its history, Renegade Hardware has provided a platform for some of the genre's most respected artists, including Future Cut, Konflict, Loxy, Ink, Raiden, Usual Suspects, Technical Itch and many others. Its legendary events, iconic Hard Leaders series and commitment to innovation helped shape the evolution of techstep and harder-edged drum & bass.
Under the continued stewardship of Clayton Hines, Renegade Hardware remains one of the most respected brands in drum & bass culture, with a legacy that continues to influence artists, labels and fans around the world.
