About

DO NOT CONFUSE with the US based DJ / club remix label, ON-USound (with no space between "ON-U" and "Sound"). Related labels are Pressure Sounds & Green Tea. EFA released some remastered titles with slightly altered cover artwork before going under in 2004. On-U Sound was relaunched in 2002 and kicked off again with Little Axe's '[r=696899]' album. Look for newer stuff at catalogue number ON-U CD 1001 and higher. For Phonographic Copyright (p) and Copyright (c) please use On-U Sound Records Ltd.. Labelcode: LC 8619/ LC 08619.
