Ubiquity Records biography, Ubiquity Records discography
Royce and could have been the next Al Green or Sly Stone.Released for the first time on CD or LP!But about 25 years ago Darondo disappeared.But after the release of his three 45s Darondo stopped recording.Something I just liked to do.Got my rings specially made with diamonds and stones.Francisco soul man Bing Ji Ling.Chappelle Show will not be disappointed!Darondo lays on the charm and cheesy jokes...Ubiquity Records was launched in 1990 as a labor of love by Michael and Jody McFadin who ran San Francisco's world famous record store, Groove Merchant on Haight Street.The name Ubiquity was chosen because of the labels mission to make unheard music ubiquitous.Music and the eMusic logo are either registered trademarks or trademarks in the USA or other countries.So it's refreshing that Ubiquity Recordings, like a fine and mature wine, only gets better with age.Comin' through with the beats that I've been searchin'."There were only a few places to go get this kind of music and we were one of them."Vibes Alive, made history as the first "acid jazz" record from an American label.McFadins had sold the shop (but the Groove Merchant lives on) and expanded into Ubiquity Recordings.Cuban and Latin jazz rifts on CuBop.Of the early days, Mike McFadin recalls pressing singles in white paper sleeves "because the jackets cost 35 cents each," and driving across the Bay Bridge to a warehouse where he could buy 20 jackets at a time, wholesale.God, you're really starting to sell records."That's when it went from being a hobby to a business!"The recent release of Oakland's Sons and Daughters of Lite on the Luv N' Haight label characterizes that vision, bringing good archival sound to a new generation of listeners."Right now we have the luxury of people coming to us.We have a name already."According to McFadin, one track from Ubiquity's New Latinaires compilation received over 49,000 hits in the last few months."We could never afford to spend advertising dollars on underground magazines," she says.Midwest suburbs, her husband jokes, they knew business was good.As to celebrating Ubiquity's 10th anniversary, the McFadins and Jervis excitedly say the daily feedback they get from listeners almost seems celebration enough.For Jervis, who regularly hosts a Friday radio show on KUSF, that kind of response makes him realize how things have come full circle.From the April 3, 2000 issue of the Metropolitan.Maintained by Boulevards New Media.DCLP2

more...Within a year the small shop had built a reputation the world over as a place to find rare records and learn about new sounds.Incidentally, the name Ubiquity was chosen because of the label's mission to make unheard music ubiquitous.Ubiquity clothing and accessories (bags, belts, wallets, slipmats, mousepads, etc) have picked up the musical mission of the record label and current styles can be seen at ubiquityrecords.It is located in Costa Mesa, California and has a satellite office based in San Francisco, California.The label has multiple imprints which include Ubiquity Records, Luv N Haight, Cubop Records, and clothing line under the brand name Ubiquity Records.Following the success of the Groove Merchant the Luv N Haight record label (named after the Sly and The Family Stone song) was launched and in 1993 the company was incorporated as Ubiquity Recordings.The first artist signed to Ubiquity was DJ Greyboy.Ubiquity's first release, a 12" single by Vibes Alive, was one of the first "acid jazz" records released by an American label.Radio Citizen
Roy Davis Jr.To stay true to our listeners and ourselves we've only ever released music that we like.New musical releases for 2007 include several new signings and many of our favorite Ubiquity acts return.Greyboy is finishing his new album which includes guests such as Casual and Nino Moschella (He's also recently remixed Cake).CuBop legends Francisco Aguabella and Bobby Matos will also return with new releases.Malone Barnes, Joi and many more.
