}} Plastic Raygun was a record label based in Cardiff, the capital of Wales, that specialised in breakbeat artists. The company was formed in the mid-1990s by Maf Lewis, Steven Robson and Neil Cocker organising and hosting concerts, featuring artists such as the Propellerheads and Bentley Rhythm Ace. They followed in 2000 with an official record label adding label manager Sam Evans. Their most notable accomplishment to date has been the Jean Jacques Smoothie single "2 People", which was a top 20 hit in the UK. In 2001 "2 People" appeared on Top Of The Pops.[1] The signing of artists Stabilizer and Dynamo Dresden were significant to the label.
