Spun Records was founded by Seth Hoffmann, Bradd Hosking & G.M.S. ( Growling Mad Scientists ) in 1999 and became the first label in the U.S.A. releasing Psychedelic Trance music. By the first two CD releases: " GMS Vs Systembusters ", and " Genetic Process ", SPUN had firmly established itself within the scene as a label of high quality and exclusive releases, specializing in the full on side of the sonic spectrum. Spun firmly planted the flag of the " Outdoor Party Sound ", the sound which has remained to become more and more popular as the new millennium unraveled.

It was decided by Seth & G.M.S. in July 2002 to open a European branch of the label in Ibiza (Spain) to increase the amount of releases and popularity of the label worldwide. Supervised by Wayan Blue, developing the visual, graphical & promotional department of spun. Having the European Office in the G.M.S. Studio has actively streamlined Spun production.
