Founded in London in 1989, Mr Bongo Records b segan as a small record shop before evolving into a globally respected label known for its love of Brazilian music, Latin grooves, rare funk, jazz, soul, disco, boogie, and deep crate-digging culture. From reissuing forgotten classics to releasing contemporary artists who carry the same spirit, Mr Bongo’s sound is rooted in dancefloor joy.
