Founded in 2021 by vocalist and music manager Jonny Rose, Slightly Subversive is a retro alternative record label that showcases the work of leading fine artists alongside emerging sync composers. 

We release mostly instrumental alternative music with a highly nostalgic vibe: trip-hop, post rock, synthwave, and indie electronica. Our label's mission is simple: to build the best instrumental alternative playlist and sync music library in the world, one song at a time. Please check out our Spotify and SoundCloud playlists to get a full sense of our sound.

Why this niche? Having grown up in the 80s, 90s, and 00s, we became frustrated by the current lack of playlist options for genuinely cool, nostalgic, creative instrumental music that we could work, relax, and hang out with friends to. We found that most channels either featured one genre of tracks that all sounded the same or that were too sleepy or intense to fit into all parts of our lives. For all those who want a go-to "anytime playlist" of unique, multi-genre alternative music, Slightly Subversive is here for you!
