Mako & Mr Bristow – Stank Soul Edits Vol 4 – Out now on 7″ Vinyl
You never heard these tracks sound like this before. But then maybe that’s because these versions were never released before: an R&B stomper done as an anthem in the vein of Aretha’s Think, an uptempo R&B heater transformed into a looser slice of southern funky soul and a rock n roll classic re-imagined as a New Orleans-style funky nugget.
Stabfinger – Funkastick EP – Out Now Exclusive on Juno Download!
It’s quite marvelous to see so much fresh new music has been coming out of the legendary Breakbeat Paradise Recordings camp this year, as they bring together another top draw drop, this time courtesy of Stabfinger with his ‘Funkastick’ project. We kick off our journey into this one with the randomized wobbles of ‘Twenty Five Miles’, which is closely followed by the groovy guitar licks of ‘Disc Jockey’. Next we have the succulent percussive pressure of the title track ‘Funkastick’ which combines oldschool drum combos with exciting chord patterns to achieve a really cool energy. Finally we round up with the tasty drum crunches of ‘Simple Et Fonky’, topped with classic vocal samples.

Pecoe – Funky Shizzle EP – Out Now Exclusive on Juno Download
“Let the funky times roll as Pecoe joins forces with the almighty Breakbeat Paradise Recordings on this brand new four track collection, destined to drag even the shyest mover into a swift jig. We begin with the subtle grooves and smooth vocal sampling of ‘Game Face’ before moving into the deep riffs and stirring horn riffs of the title track ‘Funky Shizzle’. Next up, we step into the more hardstyle drum processing and minor piano chord breakdowns of ‘Delight’ before finishing up terrifically on the mash up masterclass known as ‘High Ground’, which forges together some classic soul and r&b samples over choppy drum loops and subtle basslines.” /Juno Download
