Cooltempo Records

Cooltempo Records is a British record label and a subsidiary of EMI. The label released albums by artists such as Kenny Thomas, Milli Vanilli, Adeva, Shara Nelson, Mica Paris and Innocence.[1]

History

Cooltempo emerged at the end of the 1980s during the height of the UK acid house scene, signing dance acts such as Monie Love and Adeva.[1] As the dance scene became increasingly fragmented, Cooltempo continued with soul/jazz vocalists such as Juliet Roberts, later branching out with jazz/hip hop artists Guru, Gang Starr, Brand New Heavies and Arrested Development.[1] DJ Trevor Nelson worked with the label from 1993 and signed Lynden David Hall and D'Angelo.
