Jumpin' & Pumpin'

Jumpin' & Pumpin' (1989–2016) was a prominent British independent record label, part of Passion Music Ltd. group. Best-known for signing The Future Sound Of London and publishing their earliest works before the seminal duo got a major record deal with Virgin. After the band's debut solo releases, 6424 12" EP (12 TOT 17) and 6395 CD/LP/MC (## TOT 2) in 1991, Jumpin' & Pumpin' quickly rose to fame. (The second 'Accelerator' single, 6470 12"/CDEP, came out in '94). Other notable early J' & P' releases include Genaside II's first EPs and numeros spin-offs by FSOL's The Future Sound Of London and Garry Cobain, such as Humanoid, Mental Cube, Indo Tribe, Smart Systems, Yage, etc.

Since 1993, Jumpin' & Pumpin' focused on "various artists" CD/LP compilations dedicated to specific genres: Goa & psytrance, techno, drum'n'bass and jungle, Happy Hardcore, ambient-house/liquid dub. Only a few odd "solo" releases came out on J' & P' in the late '90s (for instance, [url=https://discogs.com/artist/18209]Unlimited Dream Co[/url]).

In 2001, coinciding with FSOL/Amorphous Androgynous "comeback," the duo returned to Jumpin' & Pumpin' with [url=https://www.discogs.com/The-Future-Sound-Of-London-Papua-New-Guinea-2001/master/6424?filter=true&year=2001]Papua New Guinea 2001[/url] 12"/CD, [I]97753 2xCD "expanded" reissue, and a brand-new "redux" album: 6611 CD/2xLP. Following fsoldigital.com's launch in 2007, Jumpin' & Pumpin' produced a few more represses and unreleased collections by FSOL and Humanoid. Since 2009, however, those included only limited-edition, deluxe packages, such as Record Store Day exclusives. Jumpin' & Pumpin' appears defunct after 2016. The Future Sound Of London has continued using ## TOT ## catalog numbers since then.
