Jalapeno Records + Aug 09
Margin was pleased to welcome London-based label Japapeno Records who provided the soundtrack to the August 2009 edition of the upscale streetwear & directional tailoring tradeshow +
Jalapeno Records have long been purveyors of all thing eclectic in the world of dance: from funk to lounge, breakbeat to house, the label has no respect for boundaries or genre; the only prerequisite is, of course, quality. Sharp label signings are leading the way which keeps Jalapeno Records on the cutting edge of nu-funk, mixing the best of classic funk & soul with innovative club productions +
Jalapeno Records may be based in London but their international signings provide a fully rounded diversity as rewarding as it is varied. From Israeli turntablists Radio Trip to the future funk of Dutch outfit Kraak & Smaak; from the smooth club grooves of Belgian D’Stephanie to the organic breakbeats by USA’s All Good Funk Alliance: Jalapeno’s global ear stretches far and wide to complement their exceptional homegrown talent including fresh funksters Soopasoul, modern northern-soul from Smoove & Turrell, the DJ wizardry of Dr. Rubberfunk, the lounge funk of Skeewiff, amongst many other progressive musicians +
As well as providing the summer sounds during the trade exhibition, tracks from the back, current and future catalogue by the great roster of artists at Jalapeno Records featured on a limited-edition Margin CD exclusively for visitors to the Margin London exhibition which took place on the 2nd & 3rd of August 2009 +
