Currently in the box:
DIMITRI FROM PARIS - "Une Very Stylish Fille - Les Remixes" - it's the Kenny
Dope mix that does it for me. Funked up bossa beats with a wicked "how do i
look.... very good!" sample. Mixes in nicely to d'n'b....
APHRODITE's "Twister mix" of TRIBE CALLED QUEST's "1nce Again". Funky as
hell with a bassline that rocks! Watch the floor when the tribe's rap comes
in! Look out for this on the "Old School vs New School" LP coming out next
week.
BUSTA FUNK - "Black Sugar", french filtered disco funk with a sexy 'Oooh
baby feels so good' sample. Hypnotic, groovy and very sexy.
Get yourself a copy of NORMAN COOK's remixes of BOOTSY COLLINS "Party
Lick-a-bles". A real party vibe that never fails to rock the floor. Nice
filtered guitar lick. Keep that funk alive!
2 IN DA BUSH - "Finger Lickin" - a rockin' breakbeat track with a funky old
school vibe. Wicked scratches and transforms. Check the B side for more old
school breaks - sampling SUAD and KICKSQUAD.
On the LP tip, check out TOMMY BOY's "Greatest Beats" compilation. Well
worth picking up if you don't have the originals already. There's some real
old school classics like DIGITAL UNDERGROUND's "Humpty Dance" and and
STETSASONIC's "Sally" - as sampled to devastating effect on LOOP DA LOOP'S
"Hazel". There's a few naff cuts from the likes of COOLIO and HOUSE OF PAIN,
but the better tracks make up for them.
JOHN STAPLETON - "Dope on Plastic 6" compilation. Highlights are THE FRESKA
ALLSTARS - "Get Fresh" and MOOG - "What is a Party?"
Also on the LP tip: FREDDY FRESH - "The Last True Family Man", KEB DARGE &
JOSH DAVIS - "Funk Spectrum" compilation.
