Founded in 1978 by Daniel Miller, Mute Records releases various forms of music, with an emphasis on electronic and experimental pop. In May 2002, Mute Records was acquired by EMI.
Mute has spawned many regional and special-interest sublabels, some of which are still active. One offshoot, Parallel Series, even became independent of Mute. Mute also operates Mute Bank Mail Order, which sells the label's merchandise directly to consumers. Every 5 years or so, Mute Bank publishes Mute Statement, a softcover book that details the entire discography of the label and includes band profiles and photos of release artwork.
