Jumpin' & Pumpin'

Profile

[b]Jumpin' & Pumpin'[/b] (1989–2016) was a prominent British independent record label, part of [l=Passion Music] group. Best-known for signing [a=The Future Sound Of London] and publishing their earliest works before the seminal duo got a major record deal with [l=Virgin]. After the band's debut solo releases, [i][m=6424][/i] 12" EP (12 TOT 17) and [i][m=6395][/i] CD/LP/MC (## TOT 2) in 1991, Jumpin' & Pumpin' quickly rose to fame. (The second 'Accelerator' single, [i][m=6470][/i] 12"/CDEP, came out in '94). Other notable early [b]J' & P'[/b] releases include [a8607]'s first EPs and numeros spin-offs by FSOL's [a=Brian Dougans] and [a40049], such as [a=Humanoid], [a7387], [a30362], [a7383], [a7408], etc. Since 1993, Jumpin' & Pumpin' focused on "various artists" CD/LP compilations dedicated to specific genres: Goa & psytrance, techno, drum'n'bass and jungle, Happy Hardcore, ambient-house/liquid dub. Only a few odd "solo" releases came out on J' & P' in the late '90s (for instance, [url=https://discogs.com/artist/18209]Unlimited Dream Co[/url]). In 2001, coinciding with FSOL/[a=Amorphous Androgynous] "comeback," the duo returned to Jumpin' & Pumpin' with [i][url=https://www.discogs.com/The-Future-Sound-Of-London-Papua-New-Guinea-2001/master/6424?filter=true&year=2001]Papua New Guinea 2001[/url][/i] 12"/CD, [I][r=97753][/i] 2xCD "expanded" reissue, and a brand-new "redux" album: [i][m=6611][/i] CD/2xLP. Following [b][l=fsoldigital.com][/b]'s launch in 2007, Jumpin' & Pumpin' produced a few more represses and unreleased collections by FSOL and Humanoid. Since 2009, however, those included only limited-edition, deluxe packages, such as [i]Record Store Day[/i] exclusives. Jumpin' & Pumpin' appears defunct after 2016. The Future Sound Of London has continued using [b]## TOT ##[/b] catalog numbers since then.
