<p>Michel Lambot and Kenny Gates met circa September 1981 at Michel's record store then called "Casablanca Moon", exclusively selling records from independent labels and they quickly became friends.

</p><p>In June 1982 the store "Casablanca Moon" was closed down and they made plans to start an import company named "Play It Again Sam". Play It Again Sam started importing from the UK in October 1982 and were based in the basement of Kenny's parents' house in Brussels, Belgium. Michel and Kenny were then respectively 21 and 19 years old. The company was incorporated in March 1983 with a starting capital of €5000 and the strategy rapidly became a "distributor" rather than an importer / wholesaler; that meant offering a full range of services to labels, such as promotion and marketing. The activities were then extended to production through the creation of their own label in 1984.<sup id="cite_ref-impala_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-impala-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1990, [PIAS] set up offices in Hilversum, Holland, then followed the takeover of Vital in 1993 (which was renamed [PIAS] UK in 2008). [PIAS] offices were set up in Paris and London in 1994, in Hamburg in 1995, in Madrid in 2000 and in New York in 2013 as well as two joint ventures called [PIAS] Nordic in Scandinavia and [PIAS] Australia.<sup id="cite_ref-impala_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-impala-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In early 2013, [PIAS] acquired <a href="Cooperative_Music" class="mw-redirect" title="Cooperative Music">Cooperative Music</a> (and the Coop-owned <a href="V2_Records" title="V2 Records">V2 Records</a> label) from <a href="Universal_Music_Group" title="Universal Music Group">Universal Music Group</a>, for a fee in the region of £500,000 forming the new business division [PIAS] Cooperative.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The same year, [PIAS] acquired Rough Trade Distribution in the <a href="Benelux" title="Benelux">Benelux</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>[PIAS] and Universal Music entered into a strategic global alliance on 9 June 2021. The agreement will see UMG finance [PIAS] in addition to accessing the company's international distribution network.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>In November 2022, <a href="Universal_Music_Group" title="Universal Music Group">Universal Music Group</a> purchased a 49 percent stake in PIAS. As part of the deal, the catalogues of several Universal artists were transferred to PIAS, including <a href="Jurassic_5" title="Jurassic 5">Jurassic 5</a>, <a href="DJ_Shadow" title="DJ Shadow">DJ Shadow</a>, <a href="The_Dandy_Warhols" title="The Dandy Warhols">The Dandy Warhols</a>, <a href="Texas_(band)" title="Texas (band)">Texas</a>, and <a href="Eels_(band)" title="Eels (band)">Eels</a>. The PIAS-Universal alliance was further extended with the Universal Music's acquisition of the existing shareholding owned by the company's founders Kenny Gates and Michel Lambot, announced on 15 October 2024.<sup id="cite_ref-umg_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-umg-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
