   About RIP Mel Cheren
Welcome to West End Records on MySpace!


Music pioneer and activist, Mel Cheren, passed away on Friday, December 7, 2007. A Memorial Service honoring the life and achievements of Mel Cheren will be held on the evening of Thursday, January 17th at St. Peter's Church in New York City. More details to follow soon. Please check back.

West End Records was co-founded by Mel Cheren in 1976 and the label went on to define the sound of New York City in the heyday of disco. That sound eventually filtered to dance floors and clubs across the country and around the world. West End Records is known as one of the most prominent labels in dance musics history along with Prelude, SalSoul and Casablanca.

From the beginning, dance music stood for the freedom of expressions and unity amongst races, cultures, and lifestyles. In that tradition, we press on shaping tomorrow from today. With a strengthened sense of purpose and sustained commitment to those timeless values, we remain unchanged as we invite change.
This is life. This is music. This is freedom. This is West End.

Slim & Swift "For You EP" (TriCircle Deep Records Promo)

This slammin' EP by Slim & Swift lets you choose between four differently flavored deep house tracks. First up is "Beat the street", a deeply stompin' track featuring phat electronic snyths and jazzy piano riffs that together create a hypnotizing vibe. "Dirty disco" is on an old-school flavored disco-funk tip with some great breakdowns included, while "Pretty sucker" is a laidback deep house track with electronic synths perfect for late night / early morning play. Lastly there is "Keep it coming" that is intensifying the vibe with deeply rumblin' groove and catchy keys.
