Trifekta was an Australia-based independent record label, based in Fitzroy, Victoria. It was started in 1997 by Tom Larnach-Jones (Shock Records), Tim Everest and Paul 'Presser' Towner (Gerling).
The first release for the label was the debut release for the Avalanches, a limited edition 7-inch single entitled "Rock City". This was followed by another limited edition 7-inch single, Gerling's "Bachelor Pad". Towner returned to Sydney and not long after this, Everest left the label in the hands of Larnach-Jones, so that he could focus on his fashion label Schwipe.
