Jalapeno Records Twenty Five [3LP]

Various Artists - Jalapeno Records Twenty Five [3LP]

Jalapeno Records are celebrating their 25th anniversary in the business. The label are marking the occasion with the release of a 3LP compilation featuring some of label boss Trevor Mac's favorite dancefloor gems from across the years.

From a humble start in a basement recording studio on Holloway Road to a quarter century anniversary celebrated from their Brighton offices - Jalapeno Records has been an indie label with a mission - to bring the funk to the masses. Along the way that has taken in so many genres from chill to house, gospel to soul, breaks to drum & bass but it has all had a common thread running through it - the funk.

"Twenty Five years means there are too many artists to list and this album is not supposed to be a Greatest Hits. We did that on the 20th anniversary. The album is dedicated to all of the artists that trusted us with their music and all the people who supported us along the way" says Trevor Mac.
