Label In Focus : Underground Resistance

As you can probably work out form the title, Wavejumpers is an electro project that is related to the work of James Stinson and Gerald Donald's Drexciya outfit. It features former Aquanauts man Tyree Stinson and plenty of aqueous synth lines and watery motifs that take you deep into an oceanic world.
UR introduces Mano De Fuego!! This spiritual shamanistic electronic music will take your spirit forward up and over whatever is in your way. Dance with relatives from the past, the present & the future, learn who UR.
Originally released by J Rolando aka The Aztec Mystic at the end of the 90s, the Knights Of The Jaguar EP has been credited to Underground Resistance (UR) ever since a 2005 reissue. Whoever’s behind this thing, what’s for certain is that both ‘Jaguar’ and ‘Ascension’ are some of the most colourful techno jams to have ever come out of Detroit. The slinky rhythms of the former help to bolster its stirring cinematic synths while ‘Ascension’s looping fourth-world groove is positively dreamy.
“Mad” Mike Banks’ all-time Detroit electrofunk classique is back in orbit for anyone put off by steep 2nd hand pricesA true, hardy 313 perennial, ‘X²’ squares up some of the filthiest Motor City synth funk of its time, with the militant UR squadron leader bridging OG P-Funk and machine music modernism in two parts of below-the-belt drive and stankface keyboard riffs that set the template for myriad imitators.
Deep techno vibes from Underground Resistance's Timeline. Smudged jazzy tones with that snappy UR funk!
Almost universally accepted as one of the crowning glories in the UR pantheon, and Motor City Soul at it's finest, Hardlife has been a stone-cold classic at Rubadub heights since it's initial release in 01
This reissue of Underground Resistance’s seminal Nation 2 Nation LP is a significant moment; the group’s messages of liberation and resistance feel as relevant as ever, not least given the reivisionist concept behind this EP. Perhaps, though, we should resist chinstroking too much; for the original liner notes of this seminal release criticize the over-intellectualization of characteristically African American art forms such as house, hip-hop, jungle and jazz. Even so, this 1991 classic stands as tall as ever, with sax contributions from Lenny Price helping to explore exactly what jazz would sound like if it had originated with the analogue gear that was available to UR’s members, decades later.

Since 2007 a café has been added to the store to bring more vibe into the alley. With alfresco seating in the lane alongside the train station.
