Lucky Kitchen began in New York City with Daniel Raffel, Alejandra Salinas and Aeron Bergman in December, 1996. Together they produced, designed, compiled and distributed LK001 through LK006 in small, handcrafted CD and vinyl editions. LK007 saw Alejandra and Aeron handling most label chores from London, UK, and finally by LK008 (late 2000) Alejandra and Aeron operated the label alone from La Rioja, Spain.
