The Numbers record label was formed in 2010 with the combining of three record labels, Wireblock, Dress 2 Sweat and Stuff. Wireblock was run by Jack Revill and brothers Calum and Neil Morton; Dress 2 Sweat was also run by Jack Revill; and Stuff was run by Richard Chater.{{cite web|url = http://www.factmag.com/2009/10/16/wireblock-dress-2-sweat-and-stuff-die-numbers-is-born/ | date = 16 October 2009 | accessdate = 13 September 2014 | publisher = Fact (UK magazine) | title = Wireblock, Dress 2 Sweat and Stuff die.

In 2013, Numbers, along with Dedbeat, started a weekender festival called 'Pleasure Principle'.{{cite web|url = http://www.factmag.com/2012/11/29/numbers-announce-new-pleasure-principle-festival-the-line-up-is-off-the-charts/ | date = 29 November 2012 | accessdate = 13 September 2014 | publisher = Fact (UK magazine) | title = Numbers announce new Pleasure Principle festival – and the line-up is remarkable}}
