It's Blacknuss Allstars I think. It's a swedish band BTW.

I don't know the label, sorry. The Fly! magazine has a short note on
them:

I don't like them myself, but they are quite ok and among the best
bands in Sweden. The music is very retro, lots of hammond and grooves,
and the female singers are very good indeed. Anyway, I think JTQ does
it so much better...
Now, for some really good Swedish music check out "Absent Minded"! The
rapper ADL is also on the Blacknuss album. He used to be a member of
the GoGo/Funk band Stonefunkers. His most famous track is called
"Alright" (if I remember correctly) and is heard in most Hugo Boss
commercials. (http://www.idg.se/hotell/bb/vinyl_stuff/)
Two recent compilations:
"Unchartered Territories Jungle Jazz" (Beechwood/Street Sounds soundscd9)
Excellent drum&bass with a little flavor of jazz. Reminds me of the
St. Germain sound - electric and lots of hard beats but still jazzy.
Wax doctor - Never so good
Aqua sky - Tranquility
Tessera - Freefall
Melting pot - d.o.
The Peter Nice trio - Harp of gold
Fourth world - Saxx
T-power - Mutant jazz
Hunch - Visible from space (aqua sky mix)
Alex Reece & Paul Saunders - Touch me
Lamb - Cotton wool (fila brazilia)
Alroy road tracks - Central line
Kenny Ken & Cool Breeze - Cool Breeze
I've said good things about the Cafe Del Mar compilations
earlier. "Cafe Del Mar - Ibiza Volumen Tres" (REACT CD84) is just great
stuff! Very mellow and laid back.
