ILR is a digital-ONLY electronic music record label based in Melbourne (Australia) and founded in January 2004.

In 2006, after 10 releases in the digital domain, comprising various singles and EPs, ILR released it's first full-length album on CD. This was a limited edition CD Digipack release that went on sale through CD Baby. Since it's launch, ILR has received international press attention from DJ Mag, International DJ, m8 Magazine, Resident Advisor, inthemix, 365 Mag, and Progressive Sounds. Individual releases have also received support from some of the world's A-list DJ's, noteably from luminaries such as James Zabiela, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Tyler Stadius, Cass, Phil K, Demi, Omid 16B, Chris Fortier, and Carl Cox. ILR releases have also graced international radio airwaves, with plays on BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM, and Proton Radio. In 2009, after a long hiatus, ILR formally removed it's entire back catalog of music from 3rd party digital download websites and made selected releases available for free download.
