Red Salamanda Records first surfaced in Prague Czech Republic back in late 2002 and in spring 2003 the first vinyl installment arrived. The debut release was from Oxford based outfit The Second Whorl. They got the remix treatment from prague local boys Zka4t and Dj Tall and from label boss Kid Ringo and pals Awesome Wells. The funky bruk vibes went down well with the likes of Mr Scruff,Tru Thoughts family and Mary Anne Hobbs. A year passed before the next release.... Czech musician and producer Boris Carloff served up his 'Good Stuff EP' in June 2004 to a warm welcome right across the globe, with the track 'First Joy' featuring twice on GP's Worldwide show, as well as being a firm favourite in many a discerning DJ's record box. Then came the 4 year hiatus ..........cue the tumbleweed as a barren desert of no release, no cashflow continued for a while. Bringing us round to 2008 and a track entitled LIFE from Kid Ringo and Ghetto Priest (On U Sound). Released on vinyl in February 2008 and now finally available on high quality digital downloads through our iThink store http://redsalamanda.ithinkmusic.com.The release features 4 different mixes including a hot Boris Carloff Remix and a old skool House mix from Kid Ringo. In the pipeline are further download releases from fresh nu homegrown talent and a return for Boris Carloff with a long awaited follow up EP ( Its been 5 years ! ) ........So there you have it folks the story so far from the somewhat slow paced life of the Prague based label....Hhhmmm not much of a story, but we hope that changes soon........its not the quantity some might say ! ....peace the Salamanda http://soundcloud.com/red-salamanda-records
