FRESHLY SQUEEZED MUSIC is a Brighton-based, UK independent record label and publisher.

We evolved from the seminal London club night, CLUB MONTEPULCIANO that ran for over 11 years. The club became a "clubland institution" (Evening Standard), described by Time Out in 2004 as one of the "things you have to do before you can call yourself a real Londoner". Having pioneered the emerging Lounge, Cabaret and Burlesque scenes through out the 90s, when the sound and style went mainstream, setting up a label seemed an obvious step.

CLUB MONTEPULCIANO RECORDINGS ran in parallel to the club and released a series of what were to become genre-defining compilations. They featured the best contemporary lounge music from a collection of forward-looking international artists. The label also released the debut album from the clubs resident DJ, LEMON and the work of various other artists.

In 2005, when the club retired (while still going strong) FRESHLY SQUEEZED was created to broaden the roster while releasing a second artist album from LEMON and music from THE VOODOO TROMBONE QUARTET, THE PINKER TONES and FOXGLUV.

With eclectic and excitingly individual artists such as DON AIR, DODO, STEREO DE LUXE, PRODUCT.01 and LODEKKA now putting material out on the label, indie-chart success, an MTV Dance top ten and the ECLECTRIK label sampler nominated one of the "best records of 2007", FRESHLY SQUEEZED continues to find fresh, quirky and original new music that is both underground but accessible.

In addition, after a run of high-profile synch licensing successes, 2007 saw the launch of a sister publishing company. During the year our music accompanied several major Hollywood films (including Knocked Up and The Heartbreak Kid), sound-tracked numerous TV shows, most notably Ugly Betty (many times over), became an MTV theme tune, and appeared in many house-hold name ads. Tracks also appeared in games like LittleBIGplanet on the SONY PlayStation.

So if you think you havent heard our music. Think again.
