Naïve Records is a French independent record label based in Paris, specializing in electronic music, pop music, jazz and classical music.
It was founded in 1997 by Patrick Zelnik, former CEO of Virgin France, Gilles Paires and Eric Tong Cuong.
Following finance house Edouard Stern taking a 10% stake in Naive, Naïve acquired various other record labels, including among classical labels Auvidis (which included early music label Michel Bernstein's Astrée and modernist label Montaigne), Yolanta Skura's Opus 111 (founded 1990, named after the Beethoven sonata Op.111) and Nicolas Bartholomée's Ambroisie.
The label got into difficulties after 2010 and, after having operations suspended, was acquired by Denis Ladegaillerie's digital download platform Believe Digital in August 2016.
