To me it's a toss-up between Hotflush and Ghost.
Isn't this the exact same thing with Ghost as with DMZ? (if you are talking 'bout the El-B/Roxy/JDaFlex etc. label)
Yeah I remembered their output being from a more diverse set of artists than it was (misattributed a few releases to Ghost) and after posting I checked it seemed to be much the same.

2006 hotflush, when they had the tunes half way between dubstep and breakstep was the best of times

Yeah, but why breakstep?
I thought the point of dubstep at that time was no restrictions? (except tempo and system friendliness)

also how come chestplate and tectonic aren't listed?
or planet mu
Planet mu isn't really a 'dubstep' label though. They did big things for it, but they've always been involved with other movements too.
yeah definitely true, but they've definitely put out some of my favourite shit, like the pinch, distance, vex'd releases

Yeah, I acknowledge that, just saying that they aren't a dubstep label tbh. Even Hospital's managed to put out house, dubstep, garage and funky records

Yes but you would still class hospital as a dnb label, Planet mu were pushing dubstep pretty hard at the time. Like now you'd say they're a jukewurk label

So to confirm, not a dubstep label.

Well then neither is Hessle or skull disco by your definition

Erm, bruv, Hessle have only ever put out dubstep. Granted, that may not be their individual focuses, but somehow or another everything they've put out falls into that category.
Only Skull Disko release I care for is Blood on my Hands tbh.
Edit, on second thoughts there are a couple that are in a grey area. But they always revert tbh.
