The internationally renowned Bootshaus club in Cologne is expanding its creative ecosystem and launching its own music label, BOOTSHAUS MUSIC. Starting in February 2026, the official label of Bootshaus will go live, positioning itself as a new platform for innovative music releases with international reach.

BOOTSHAUS MUSIC combines the unmistakable spirit of the Bootshaus club with the global infrastructure of Universal Music. This creates a powerful bridge between club culture, authenticity, close connection to the scene, and professional worldwide distribution.

Music is everything. It connects us. It moves us. It defines us.

With BOOTSHAUS MUSIC, a modern music label has been founded that offers artists a transparent, scalable, and future oriented environment for releases. The focus lies on partnership driven collaboration, data based strategy, and maximum creative freedom. Every track is developed closely with the Bootshaus community, tested live in the club, and then released internationally with high quality visual and digital assets.

Genre boundaries do not matter. Just like Bootshaus itself, BOOTSHAUS MUSIC stands for musical diversity, ranging from electronic music to bass and techno, all the way to new hybrid sounds.

BOOTSHAUS MUSIC carries the same uncompromising standard of quality that has made the club one of the most important destinations for electronic music in Europe for over twenty years, the team explains. The official launch of the label will take place on 20 February 2026 with its first release.

BOOTSHAUS MUSIC stands for music, community, and an international vision.

Feel it. Live it. Be part of it.
