Cutting Records Inc. United States

CUTTING RECORDS, an independent record label dedicating itself to the global music industry, was established in 1983. Hashim (Al-Naafyish-The Soul) was Cuttings first release, which eventually became not only a club hit but also a club anthem with the electro-slogan-Its Time! ! For all break-dancers of the 1980s. And its still selling today, since its initial release back in 1983. This is the unlikely tune, which was to start CUTTING RECORDS on a long, successful journey into the world of dance music some twenty years ago. Cuttings first big musical turning point came with the fusion of romantic teenaged melodies with the hard beats that came out of rap called freestyle. Sa-Fires-Dont Break My Heart-was Cuttings first freestyle record. Then came Nitro Deluxe, Giggles-Love Letter and Corinas-Out of Control, The label went on to the Concept of One, produced by Tony Moran, which featured many artists including The Latin Rascals, Brenda K. Starr, and Noel. At the same time, non freestyle records like-Wiggle It, by 2 in a Room and-Do What You Want-were released. Having achieved gold record status from the U. S. to Australia, 2 IN A ROOMs most popular single-WIGGLE IT-brought themselves worldwide attention and standing. With the success of-Wiggle It-in 1990, 2 IN A ROOM topped Billboards Hot Dance Music Club Play and 12-Inch Singles Sales charts. In addition, widespread radio airplay pushed the record up the Hot 100 Singles chart to Top 15. The previous release, -DO WHAT YOU WANT, rocked the night clubs and exploded onto the U. K. charts giving birth to their stylized hip-house music. The summer of 1996 emerged, in New York City, a new musical concept that originates from the contagious sounds of merenhouse. In the short time of being out on the market, SANCOCHO acquired projection and acceptance in a dramatic way. These artists created-Tumba La Casa-that was considered an international success from the first moment it was heard in the recording studio because of its content and the aggressive interpretation it presents. It combines merengue with the hype sounds of house music. A few days after its release they were heard on major radio stations throughout the country, at the clubs, at private parties, at friendly gatherings, and at all celebrations. Tumba La Casa-even received success on an international level; a historical song that continues to be in style with the popular trends, and that forcefully entered the Anglo-Saxon market. Having achieved a# 1 record in Spain, SANCOCHOs most popular single-Tumba La Casa-brought themselves worldwide attention and standing.
