History
Fool’s Gold Records was founded in 2005 by DJs A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs. It established itself with releases bridging the worlds of all music genres together to the world while being dubbed an "indie innovator" by Billboard[2] and a "tastemaker" label by The New York Times,[3] and "one of the most influential indies in the music business" by Pitchfork.[4] It moved to Universal Music Group & Caroline Distribution for new distribution.
