Started in 2005 by Rory Hinchey, Ownness releases unusual music in hard-format/.MP3 combo packages, and carries out additional non-release activities.

The mandate "Progress Through Indifference" was inspired by Max Stirner, and relates to the lack of concern for musical conventions exhibited in the recordings Ownness releases. Nevertheless, the selections on the records still retain their own singular forms of composition and structure.
