Cultures of Soul Cultures of Soul Records is a Boston based reissue label catering to DJs spinning afro, funk, soul, jazz, disco, and caribbean music.

Cultures of Soul Records was founded in Boston by DJ and record collector Deano Sounds, out of an ambition to start a sustaining record label in the post-record industry era. It was also a dream of his since his early childhood when he first discovered music. The format and artistic direction of the label was formalized after Deano spent years crate-digging and DJing. From its meager beginnings in

2010, which saw the release of a number of rare soul and funk 7-inches, Cultures of Soul quickly went on to sign some of the staple artists on their roster including Evans Pyramid and Stanton Davis. The label moved from strength to strength by releasing funky music from all over the globe, starting with the Bollywood filmi disco compilation Bombay Disco and continuing with compilations that focused on unearthing disco/boogie/funk/soul tracks from the Caribbean, Brazil and South Africa, all with the dancefloor in mind. In 2015, Cultures of Soul released the critically acclaimed Boston Creative Jazz Scene album and companion book. Tokyo Nights, the label's latest release, is the first official compilation of Japanese Boogie Funk music. The label continues to spread the Cultures of Soul sound everywhere, discovering and releasing soul music of all diasporas!
