Modular Recordings was established a few hours before the first release was due to go to press in the fortuitous summer of 1998.

In the years since the label has gone on to achieve just about every level of success imaginable with acts like The Avalanches, Wolfmother, Cut Copy, Tame Impala, The Presets, Ladyhawke, CEO, Canyons, Bag Raiders, Van She, Jonathan Boulet, The Swiss, Grace Woodroofe, WIM, Sneaky Sound System, Beni. We're also the Australian halfway house to Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Klaxons, Chromeo, Azari & III, DOM and The Rapture.
