What i do is spin a cover or version ie "Son Of Shaft" by the Barkeys.
Everyone digs the familiar wah wah- it's always exciting, then you can
dig deeper for those Keb Darge type tracks, when they're funking drop
something like "Blacker" by the Ballistic Brothers, " Justify" from Ski
or any modern sound that actually grooves. After all, hip hop did just
that: familiar V what the f**k is that..
As they used to say on Pirate radio, If it moves funk it!
