BPM Records

Established in the early '90s, BPM Records was one of the first dance record stores in San Francisco. Store founder Ishmael and Strictly Rhythm/Underground Construction recording artist DJ EFX produce for the in-house label under a variety of names including Advanced Funksters, The Budwrestlers, Those Saucee Buggahs, Truefunkeosis, and Xtreme Funktrimists.
