The label originates from the music website Breakbeat Paradise that has been running since 1996.

Paddy
It wasn’t long before he
picked up some fifth-hand belt-driven decks and started mixing a few
borrowed drum & bass records.
Shortly after, at a
festival, he stumbled upon a new sound; a blend of funk, hip hop,
breaks, electro and good times, a showcase in musical versatility and
creativity.
Since that day Paddy has
developed an unhealthy obsession with music, crafting funk-infused
mixes and spreading the good vibe.
