BYG Actuel was a Frenchrecord label specialising in free jazz. It was founded in the late 1960s by Jacques Bisceglia, Jean-Luc Young and Jean Georgakarakos, the name of the label coming from the initial letters of the three founders' surnames.
The label is notable for inviting a large number of American free jazz musicians to Paris to record in August 1969, a time when they were receiving little support or attention in the United States. The resulting albums are an important repository of free jazz recordings from the period. Some of the musicians who made the trip to record were Don Cherry, Sunny Murray, Archie Shepp, Alan Silva and Dave Burrell.
The label also released a small number of non-jazz recordings by artists such as Musica Elettronica Viva and Gong.
