32 Records was a record label established in 1995 by producer Joel Dorn and attorney Robert Miller.[1][2][3] Its 32 Jazz imprint released a successful series of compilation albums.[2][3][4][5][6] The label was named for Dorn's favorite sports number.[1] 32 Records also released new material by artists such as The Jazz Passengers, and established 32 R&B, 32 Blues, 32 Groove and 32 Pop subsidiaries.[1][2]

32 Records acquired the holdings of the Muse and Landmark labels, and established the 32 Jazz subsidiary in 1997 with the aim of re-issuing numerous jazz recordings.[1][2][7][8] During the late 1990s, 32 Jazz released a successful series of inexpensive "Jazz for…" compilations.[4][5] The first of these, Jazz for a Rainy Afternoon, was released in 1997 in conjunction with Elle.[4][5] In 1999, 32 Jazz had become the top jazz label in the Billboard charts, before Verve Music Group merged its Verve and GRP holdings into a single output.[6]

By 2000, Miller had become CEO of CDBeat, which owned 32 Records as a subsidiary.[9] In March 2000, Dorn resigned from the company (he would form Label M later that year).[10][11] Upon Dorn's departure, CDBeat announced that it would discontinue 32 Records by March 2001,[12] although in June 2000 it hired producer Todd Barkan to replace Dorn.[9][11][13] CDBeat, in turn, would become Spinrocket and then ConnectivCorp.[14] Savoy Jazz acquired the rights to the Muse and Landmark catalogs from 32 Records in October 2003,[15] and by the end of the year, ConnectivCorp had merged with Majesco Entertainment.[16]
