It all started with the famous Paradise Garage nightclub, home of the late great legend Larry Levan. Dance music luminaries such as Francois Kevorkian and Junior Vasquez credit the Paradise Garage as a major influence in their styles and even in their decisions to become DJs. Born of this musical phenomenon in 1993, was BPM King Street Sounds. Hisa Ishioka founded the label to continue the twelve-year tradition of soulful-spiritual house music that the club helped give birth and lend an ear to in the ‘80’s. A musical harvest that has yielded some of the sweetest dance records ever, King Street has established itself as one of the finest and most respected labels releasing dance music today.

King Street is on the cusp of dance music bringing such sounds as future soul, Nu jazz, Deep progressive house, and Afro-abstract excursions to the forefront. Not to mention that, to date, it remains one of the few consistently strong independent labels in today’s market. We are approached by major and independent labels on a daily basis for the licensing and distribution of our releases. Our success is a combination of many factors with a focus on working with some of the hottest dance producers in addition to aggressively seeking out new talent. This combination has helped us build a solid following for our labels and releases.

Our catalogue of releases reads like a “who’s who” in contemporary dance music: Masters At Work, Louie Vega, Dennis Ferrer, Roger Sanchez, David Morales

    Agreed. Some epic releases over the years...Mondo Grosso's "Souffles H" (MAW remixes) immediately springs to mind. Still one of my top 3 house tracks of all time. Keep up the good work!
