"Big Dada has, and continues to be, a vital part of the Ninja Tune family," Ninja Tune founders Matt Black and Jon More (collectively known as Coldcut) stated in a press release. "It's an important creative force that champions wild & wonderful music, with roots in Hip Hop the label has grown to encompass a wide range of experimental artists."
