Konnex Records is a German jazz record label founded in 1984. Record producer Manfred Schiek, who had previously run the label Vinyl Records, founded the label in Berlin to issue contemporary jazz recordings from British and continental European performers.[1] In the 1990s the label expanded into reissues of music by Elvin Jones and Cecil Taylor.[2] Konnex operates a sublabel, Atonal, for electronic music.
