Around the turn of the millennium, a collective of artists emerged from the prairie region of Canada that were pushing the boundaries of experimental, electronic, and computer music. Their initial offering was the Alphaform compilation, released in 2002 in conjunction with the Psychonavigation imprint based out of Dubin, Ireland. Upon relocating to Montréal the same year, the fledgling Panospria label was properly established and among the first to embrace the MP3 file as a viable release format, allowing them to distribute their music online to a global audience at a time when the idea of a non-physical release was puzzling for most people. Some individuals, like Brave New Waves host Patti Schmidt, responded positively to this new model, calling it a vanguard concept.

What followed was an intense period of industrious activity that solidified their position as major players in a city that was now garnering international recognition. Community initiatives included hosting the Textures concert series to showcase the hotbed of activity in their local music scene. As their popularity grew, they began booking tours for their artists in Canada, the USA, and EU. A partnership was forged with No Type, themselves bonafide trailblazers in the industry since 1998, and the Panospria catalogue was added to their mainframe in 2007. They maintain a close working relationship to this day.

Operations relocated to Vancouver in 2008 where the label blossomed with the addition of more acts from the west coast to their roster and new partnerships were formed with festivals and arts organizations. They initiated the Quiet City concert series, which eventually became a staple on the international touring circuit and ran for 70 editions over the course of a decade. Coming full circle after 20 years, the label has been based in Saskatoon once again since 2022 where they continue to focus on forward-thinking sounds and connecting like-minded people around the world.
