S. Dunmore

British DJ and record label executive.
A DJ since 1982, Dunmore promoted events in west London and wrote for Blues & Soul magazine before he landed a job, in 1988, at The Record & Disco Centre in Rayners Lane, Pinner.
In December 1989 he was offered the role of club promotions manager at Touchdown Productions.
In his A&R role Dunmore pushed Cooltempo in a more house-orientated direction with acts such as River Ocean.
In 1994 he was offered the chance by AM:PM with Dunmore in the A&R role and Janet Bell as club promotions manager.
In 1998, with rumours that Universal Music Group planned to buy Polygram and close A&M Records, he took the opportunity, with Bell, to launch his own label, Defected, with funding from the Ministry Of Sound.
Dunmore was Director of Wez Saunders.
Father of Louie and Lucas Dunmore aka Dunmore Brothers.
