Grayhound Recordings
Grayhound Recordings was launched in 1998 by Garth as an avenue for the dub-heavy dance tracks long-pioneered by Wicked in San Francisco. To get a better picture of Grayhound's story, rewind to 1991, when Garth and DJ friends from London's burgeoning acid house scene, decided to make San Francisco their new home. By March of that year, Wicked was born and kick-started the west coast house scene into high gear with their now legendary full moon parties, spontaneous events that over a five year run took thousands of adventurous party people to beaches and parks all over Northern California. This coupled with their afterhours club night that would give the crew it's Wicked name, firmly established San Francisco as one of America's strongest house nations and incidentally placed the Wicked crew as the innovators on the scene. Fast forward to 1995. San Francisco's party scene is firmly established on the map. Wicked have imported the first custom-built UK 15K Turbosound system to California and take their Wicked ow on the road, covering the major U.S. cities, all in a 1947 Greyhound bus with 20 heads aboard and sound system in tow. Garth's first production with E.T.I. 'Twenty Minutes of Disco Glory' proved to be one of the best selling independent dub house records of 1996. Accolades came in thick and fast with Muzik Magazine heralding Garth as one of the Top 10 producers to look out for in 1997, along with David Morales and Sean Puffy Combs. Two subsequent releases as Crosstown Traffic saw release on Wicked Records in 1997, and sensing a need for a label that could do justice to Northern California's scene he launched Grayhound, taking as an icon the crew's lovingly restored 1947 bus.Says Garth 'People have talked about a west coast sound for years, but with Grayhound the manifesto is to truly represent that elusive Wicked sound. Each release will live have up to that standard and will feature music from the best that the Bay Area has to offer. It's a sound that, whilst being firmly rooted in the house tradition, astribute to the city's cultural past. Dub-reggae production techniques, hints of leftfield disco, jazz, electro, even surf music have been known to crop up within the grooves.'
