In June 1998, the opening night of the Meltdown festival curated by Peel was a Warp label live special, with selections later broadcast on his Radio One show. A similar event later in the festival featured artists from Scotland's Creeping Bent label (Leopards, Adventures In Stereo, Nectarine No.9, Secret Goldfish), although none of these sets appeared in subsequent programming.
Independent labels like Warp and Creeping Bent provided the core of Peel's programs from the punk era onwards. In later years, live sessions from Maida Vale came to include multi-artist label nights. The aim of this page is to list such live session specials, as well as other Peel shows with a label theme.
