Plaza Records
was founded in 1982 by producer/arranger Randy Muller of Skyy/Brass Construction fame and specialized primarily in vinyl records. According to Muller, “I wanted an outlet to do the kind of tracks that was outside the “Brass/Skyy stylistic limits. A place where I can stretch out musically.” Dedicated to classic funk and soul, it wasn’t long before its initial release, “I Surrender” by Funkdeluxe, became an underground club favorite from New York to London, with raves from none other than legendary UK house/soul DJ Danny Rampling, winner of DJ Magazine’s No 1 Dj in the World Award.
Releases such as “Let The World Dance” (mixed by John Robinson and Blue Jean) and “Show Me da Way” were soon to follow. However, after an hiatus in the late 90s, Plaza was back on the scene with “Oh My God” a gospel flavored anthem by “Shelia” hailed by none other than David Morales as a “must play” and which featured remixes by DJ Choco, Romatt ( DJ Romain) and Muller.
Today, Plaza Records continues its tradition of Classic-Flavored Soul™ and cutting-edge out-of da’-box dance grooves with an expanded genre list ranging from House, Funk, Afrobeat and R&B to Tech/Electronica, Soul-Jazz and Relax/Chill.
We are located in the heart of New York City, where it all happens. Soul
