His flagship imprint label Ibadan Records celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2015. Following what has been an illustrious record career, Jerome Sydenham released a much-anticipated album 'Animal Social Club' on Ibadan Records in the European summer of 2012, followed by a co-production project with Aybee and Ron Trent under the artist name S.A.T. which saw a release of an album of the same name in 2014 to acclaimed reviews. ==A&R Background== Jerome Sydenham was recruited into the prestigious A&R division of Atlantic Records in 1989. In five years, he was able to hone his business skills in a major label environment, lending A&R direction to artists such as En Vogue, LeVert, Simply Red and Das EFX, attaining Gold and Platinum certifications. In 1994, while at East West Records, owned by Warner Music Group, his underground dance music interests continued to run in tangent with his commercial A&R work as he largely succeeded in crossing dance over to the mainstream with albums by Ten City and Michael Watford. During this time, he also compiled one of the most significant representations of early 90's deep house with his "Underground Dance Classics Vol. 1" CD showcasing some of the earliest productions from a young Roger Sanchez, Murk and Pal Joey. It was there where he also met Kerri Chandler, releasing one of his records on Atlantic in 1990. The two would continue to be close friends and collaborators later in life along with Dennis Ferrer and Joe Claussell.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jerome Sydenham: Whatever makes you happy Interview )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jerome Sydenham」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
