About
Music from Hawaii, past and present.
Since its evolution from a blog into record label, Aloha Got Soul has committed itself to sharing music from Hawaii across genres and generations. The blog launched in August 2010 with a focus on 1970s and 80s jazz, funk, soul and R&B music from the islands. In 2015, we started our record label. In 2021, we opened a brick-and-mortar record store in Honolulu.

Artist Feedback & Testimonials

“I have worked with Roger and the rest of the crew at AGS for about 5 years now in collaboration with Kalapana and my father Mackey Feary’s solo released music. I can honestly say that I have nothing but the utmost respect and love for them for their professionalism and humble respect they have shown not only me but my family and the band. Their handling of re-releasing original works on vinyl and being our source for Original Merchandise of Kalapana Music has truly been a blessing and I would recommend working with the team at Aloha Got Soul to any artist I cross paths with. Mahalo for everything!”
— Sebastian Feary, son of Mackey Feary of Kalapana
"We had a great experience collaborating with Aloha Got Soul for the vinyl release of Don Tiki—Hot Like Lava. Roger Bong was a true partner and made it fun by giving us complete creative control of the project from the selection of tracks to the 3-D album cover artwork. AGS took great care of the entire process and paid attention to ALL of the details with integrity."
— Lloyd “Fluid Floyd” Kandell, producer, Don Tiki / Taboo Inc.
