ICONS OF GHETTO FUNK 2013 Parts 1 & 2: Free download (2013)

I had been thinking this latest annual installment of the Ghetto Funk Icons series, Icons Of Ghetto Funk, was early. But then I checked and actually it’s later than the previous two years. And that’s not all that’s different. This time the icons they’re remixing aren’t the popular music giants of yore but some of the label’s own artists. Say what? Remixes of the Ghetto Funk back catalogue by ghetto funk artists? Yep – it’s not the work of the …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

GHETTO FUNK PRESENTS: Bring The Boom (GFP16)(2013)

Some of you may be aware that Bim and Ben lead bands with brooms and furthermore that Ben’s band bangs and Bim’s band booms. While you’re pondering that, here’s something else that booms – Ghetto Funk‘s forthcoming Bring The Boom EP. JFB & Dancefloor Outlaws give Desmond Dekker some dnb boom, Timothy Wisdom gives LL Cool J some ghetto funk boom (don’t call it a comeback) and Tom Drummond has what sounds like an …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

JFB: DMC Online Championship video (2013)

“Yeah alright mate – there’s no way that’s live. I know how it works. Serato might be plugged in but I bet there’s fuck all cued on them records. You’ll have been in your bedroom all week prancing around in front of the mirror, fancying yourself as some sort of ‘Hendrix of the decks,’ faking the funk on the ones and twos while a bit of QBert or Kentaro or some other DMC champion plays on the stereo and your mate films you on his iPhone. You …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

THE ICONS Vol. 3: Ghetto Funk Remixes (2012) Free download from 22 Dec. '12

It’s the Ghetto Funk label’s third annual Icons outing here with The Icons: Vol. 3 as they let a platoon of producers loose on several decades of musical heritage each to rework the – er – work of an icon in their own inimitable ghetto funk style. Well, I say ‘ghetto funk’ style – the more nebulous ‘bass music’ moniker would be nearer the mark – but more about that in a sec. Perhaps the most obvious difference this time around is the number of cuts – a staggering 35! That’s nearly twice the output of the previous volume and nearly three times the output of the first! But is it a case of a triumph of quantity over quality? Well, first to raise an issue was my laptop’s keyboard …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

RUCKUS ROBOTICUS feat. SPANKY WILSON: Thank God It’s Funky (2012) + video

The term ‘funky’ is abused with such heinous frequency when applied to music that Thank God It’s Funky is a sentiment I experience more frequently than you might expect on a preliminary listen to anything that PR assures me is ‘funky.’ Happily, Ohio producer (and regular Solid Steel Radio guest) Ruckus Roboticus‘s hook-up with legendary soul-queen Spanky Wilson (of funky Cream-cover Sunshine Of Your Love fame) is indeed, ‘funky.’ However, should its scuzzy funk-...READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM
