About
Started in 1992 by DJ H.M.S. and Jon The Dentist as the UK's first gabba label. Now JTD runs it on his own. Releases range from gabba to trance to, in the more recent releases, acid techno/trance that tends to be rather percussive. Part of the Truelove Label Collective.

I had a label called Dream Inn with Baby Doc which we closed down – so I set up Bosca Beats as an outlet for all that stuff. I hate to use the word, but it was more nu-energy, with even more keyboards."7 releases · 1994–1999
