La Souterraine

La Souterraine is a French independent music label and online platform founded in 2013 by Benjamin Caschera and Laurent Bajon. Described by its creators as an "observatory lab for the French musical underground," the association also operates as a record label, releasing compilations and albums by artists who are little or not at all distributed elsewhere. Its first compilation was released in early 2014, and publications became more frequent over time. Some artists also release EPs or albums through the structure. In 2016, it released a tribute album to Mathieu Boogaerts. By January 2019, La Souterraine hosted 700 artists (190 compilations, 2,000 songs) on its Bandcamp platform and claimed 50,000 unique users. The label is based in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, France, and focuses on French and francophone pop underground music. It maintains a Bandcamp page, a Tipeee account, and social media presence on Facebook and Instagram.
