[edit] History
Ubiquity Records was founded in 1993 by Michael and Jody McFadin out of the Groove Merchant record store on the Lower Haight of San Francisco, California [2]. Following the success of the Groove Merchant the Luv N Haight record label (named after the Sly and The Family Stone song) was launched and in 1993 the company was incorporated as Ubiquity Recordings. The first artist signed to Ubiquity was DJ Greyboy. Ubiquity's first release, a 12" single by Vibes Alive, was one of the first "acid jazz" records released by an American label.
