Deutsche Grammophon is a German classical record label which was the foundation of the future corporation to be known as PolyGram. It is now part of Universal Music Group (UMG) since its acquisition and absorption of PolyGram in 1999, and it is also UMG's oldest active label. It is also the oldest surviving established record company, founded in 1898.

Over our 26 years we have always found this hard to answer. A record label, a clothing brand, a media company, a support network for independent musicians are all outside definitions that come to mind. None can fully define us as we evolve in our fast changing world, and so we will set sail on a further mission that will define our intent and principles for the next chapter. Ropeadope represents the intersection of creatives and listeners. We are a meeting point for creative humans: music makers, music listeners, social justice advocates, and people seeking a more harmonious world. We are a gallery, a museum, a lounge and gathering place. Art is the calling card, the point of common interest that brings us together. This network has many roots and branches around the globe; it ebbs and flows like the ocean and the air, and it brings a sense of community and joy at its best. Ropeadope is a story of inclusion. We view the world as a place of one, where music is a unifying force connecting all of us. We accept that musicians know their art better than businessmen do, and we know that our work, our artists, our music is authentic and REAL.
