Back in 1976, Blacksmoke released their self titled album and kicking off the Funk spectacular that it is was ‘Gotta Bad Feeling‘. Paris based producer, Morlack, has a fondness for that particular tune and has decided to give it a makeover by adding in chunky broken beats, even more Funk and a whole lotta groove. You’re gonna have to have it and when you do have it, you’ll be extremely happy that you do have it, promise.

Wax Worx has been busy getting his head down in the studio of late and all his hard work is paying off big time and to bring some life to that statement, get a load of his new tune ‘Hey Mr DJ‘. The original by, Screen II, is one of his all time favourite tracks and he’s done the business with his re-cut. The energy levels are right up there and once you get it spinning, it’s gonna feel like a carnival is marching it’s way through your mind. Infectious stuff!

We are very pleased to feature the premiere stream of Father Funk – Swagger Ft. Too Many Ts taken from new LP ‘Heavy Rotation’

‘Heavy Rotation’ is available now via iTunes, Spotify, Juno, Deezer, Beatport and all good digital stores.

Ghetto Funk DJ and producer Father Funk has today released his long-awaited debut album ‘Heavy Rotation’ on his favourite day of the year – 420 day! Not only is it his first full record but it is also the first release on his brand new label ‘Funk Therapy’. The new album is available now in all major digital stores across 270 countries.
After signing with legendary agency and former label Finger Lickin’, Father Funk quickly became one of the biggest names in Breakbeat and Ghetto Funk. Fresh off the back of two Canada tours earlier this year and the 1st anniversary of his own successful Bristol based night ‘Church of Love’, the father has cemented himself as one of the freshest tastemakers in the UK right now.
Taking huge inspiration from the disco and funk sounds of the 70’s and 80’s he has been writing music for over 10 years having released 5 EP’s and numerous singles across Sunday Best, Ghetto Funk, Adapted Records and Scour Records to name a few. His back catalogue includes remixes for the likes of Dub Pistols and Fort Knox Five including many bootleg remixes that have also amassed huge numbers on Soundcloud.
This debut record is the first full release that is completely original and free from his best-known sampling work. It captures the energy of the funk and soul golden years whilst combining it with modern dance music and disco culture, not sticking to one particular genre. With over 3 years in the making the father has been able to collaborate with some of the freshest names in the UK on this project; including London rap duo Too Many T’s, Ghetto Funk legends WBBL and Slynk, Canadian rap group Illvis Freshly and neo-soul singer Hilary Beckett.
Speaking on the new release Will Williamson aka Father Funk said:

I think the album is a bit of a lost art these days, and as someone who still very much enjoys listening to them, I wanted to bring back this mentality of writing songs as a collective artwork, not just as floor fillers or money makers. ‘Heavy Rotation’ is not just for dance floors but for front rooms, backyards and long journeys. I hope you enjoy it is as much as I enjoyed making it.

Flex Records present the sizeable talents of a one Opius with the ‘Ghost Rider E.P’

Opius cooks up some interesting and exciting DnB sounds on tracks like  ‘Big Ben’ sampling ‘Turn It Up’, a quirky roller in the style of Bizzy B/Dream Team productions from the golden age of Jungle/DnB.

‘Mr Crocodile’ continues the quirky samples and lethal breakbeats with a nod to Shy FX ‘Bambataa’

The title track is a ghastly blast of warped bass, spooky spoken words and barbarous bass

And speaking of bass, ‘Bass Playa’ is the closing track on this EP by Opius and it truly cuts like a rusty chainsaw, pain and pleasure combine in the ghoulish finale. We are very impressed by the sound of Opius, a real talent with a predilection for making killer DnB beats!!!

Amiga Breaks goes for a different vibe to the oldskool rave sounds with ’16 Bit Memories’, an LP dedicated to the 16bit era of video gaming and the much-loved sounds of those classic games.

If you loved the music of the likes of Yuzo Koshiro then you are in for a real treat here. ‘Inter-Dimensional Sliding’ eases us in with a warm wash of pure 90s sunshine. ‘Deep Constellation’ fuses electro basslines with percolating keys and elated backdrops.

‘Digital Vistas’ is indeed panoramic and soaring, reminiscent of the early work of Hybrid (Unfinished Symphony). ‘Execute Command’ gets closer and closer to that computer game soundtrack style with brooding chords and deep sweeps.

‘Titan Rise’ takes it back to the early 90s with 808 State style beats and riffs. ‘Liquid Flow’ is quite simply classic Amiga Breaks, pure blissful rolling excellence. ‘Mind Science’ takes us through the wormholes and far off galaxies of deep space with a euphoric interplanetary style.

‘Mr Sax’ revisits the Hi-NRG Disco sound of the late 80s with lush sax licks and tons of unbridled energy.

‘Nu Kazz Kind’ touches down on a sunny day in Chicago with mellow vibes and busy breakbeats. ‘Positive Vibes’ is our pick from this great LP, a pure slice of full on rave breaks. ‘U Turn Round Jupiter’ brings together the power of Reese bass, deep synths and the Apache break and finally we come to a glorious climax with the Mr Fingers style ‘Binary Dreams’

If you haven’t heard ONYVA’s ‘Al Dente EP’, you’ve missed out on a solid EP and in our opinion, one of the best Tech House tracks of 2017 ‘Drop This Like A Boulder’

Original 90s rave, veteran DJ and now a great producer! ONYVA’s ‘Al Dente EP’ is part of the growing resume of quality beats currently up on his Soundcloud page. It features the peak room Tech House banger title track, the fever pitch melodics of ‘Square One’ and undoubtedly one of the finest Tech House tunes of this year, ‘Drop This Like A Boulder’ takes its influence from oldskool hardcore class ‘Fireball’ by Timebase (Krome & Time) and matches the energy and intensity of that very rave classic with a tune that really sounds like it should be on a top label like Elrow or Lapsus. Listen, love and spread the word!!!

LJhigh presents four incredible DnB productions on the ‘Other Side Of Town EP’-Audio Addict Records

Atmospheric dissonance at its most compelling is the best way to describe the visionary sounds of ‘Oasis’, ‘West Wind’, ‘Bad Boy’ and the title track. It’s DnB Jim but not as we know it!!!
