Colemine

Colemine Records was founded in late 2007 with the simple idea of putting out quality music with soul. The label is owned by Terry Cole.
With a focus on soul, funk, and R&B, Colemine has become a leading force in the independent music scene. They are dedicated to finding and promoting talented artists who create authentic and timeless music.
Over the years, Colemine has released numerous critically acclaimed albums and singles that have garnered attention from music lovers worldwide. Their commitment to preserving the essence of soul music sets them apart from other labels in the industry.

“City Heights” is a breezy walk through the neighbourhood on a Summer’s day. Light and easy, the intro guitars give way to magnificent horns. Some sweet Soul Jazz at its finest. Reminiscent of George Benson meeting the Memphis Horns while Herbie Mann gets down, this side is soulful and funky at the same time. By the time the flute comes in and give way to more drums that knock, you’ve not just circled the neighbourhood, you’ve walked the city and back nodding your head the whole way. This track is another winner from SFSE and a sure shot for Colemine Records. On point as usual, they are once again highlighting some of the newest and best bands out there. 

The flip, “Strollin’ Adams” picks up where “City Heights” left off. A little more jazzy, a little bit funkier but with that breezy feel still, this track brings you back to those mid 60’s early 70’s Blue Note / Prestige / Verve Soul Jazz moments. A time when the players clicked and gave us this genre that has wooed listeners for decades moving forward. The old sound is new again, and preserved just right. Aces high, this is a winner on both sides. - Flea Market Funk.
