About Floppy Records

The Floppy records website first went online in 1997. It has offered free mp3s then and ever since.

Floppy Records was set up in 1991 by me, Tom Fraser, to release the Audrey Hepburn EP by Tinkerbell’s Dope Ring (which i played in along with Mik Wheeler, drummer, of Gasgiant fame and a lot of bass players including Scott Shaw (of radio fame), Sue Allen, Dave, Robin, Arthur Finlay, Deke Patton (DJ Outlaw), and others. We released a few things for Tinkerbells, none did well, so i obviously have a great deal of in-experience to talk about these matters. Nikki and i then formed tantrum and fake tan, gasgiant released stuff and we found boris. All are bands and musicians based in Scotland (and on the whole Edinburgh).

Videos and remixes - we have some and we'll get them up soon and if anybody fancies having a shot at doing some please do, we would love to see/hear them.

Demos

Please don’t send us your demo. We set up our own label to sell our own music. You could consider doing the same thing.
