for some reason i always remember that thing you said about wonder's 'riddim box' refix sounding like being chased by a massive moth

("always remember" meaning "have misremembered" most probably)

'sirens' refix, sorry

"a fluttering handclap drum pattern like a moth beating its wings at your ears" actually.

I had to check because describing a track as sounding like being chased by a massive moth would have been surprising even for me.

Had a listen to the first of these earlier and yeah, this is a vibe. Feels like a totally different era of the music even though it's less than 4 years ago. Prob the only disappointment for me was that there was less material that was totally new to me than I was expecting/hoping for. Loving all the remixes and VIP-sounding versions of big tunes from that period they play though. Now grabbing the 25th November one.

it's not really uk funky though is it? (not that i'm even sure what that means any more)

but whatever it is it is epochal, life-changing (etc)

― TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 18 April 2012 11:07 (1 year ago) Permalink

yeah, like you say uk funky is an antiquarian pursuit at this point and has been for a while. a great majority of the tracks in the mix would have gotten play in funky sets - but i can see how the mix as a whole might not scan immediately as such (and they themselves wouldn't call themselves that either). think of the fives, fuzzy logik, pioneer, andy jay & s-tee in their less ruffer moments etc

looooove the overflowing florid cut-up orchestral sounds of the very todd edwards remix of keith & superbeatz the most beautiful thing. i think there's some oboe in there! out in a week or so but this gives a whiff:

New Mad One/Preshus vid. They haven't moved their sound forward very far tbh but not bad. I kind of want Maddison to jump on the afrobeats bandwagon, he'd be perfect for it.

Has anyone listened to the new Cooly G album? I haven't gotten a chance to yet, I'm interested in what everyone thinks of it.

― Astrochimp32, Thursday, 28 June 2012 20:16 (10 months ago) Permalink

On my first scan through I didn't really care for it much. There are a lot of repeats from singles (including the GREAT "It's Serious"), but I felt a lot of the rest featured too many vocals (not necessarily a bad thing but..) and some really uninteresting rhythms.

Tim, if you're out there: Any chance of a mid 2012 Funky Skykicking roundup?

btw, re this, my engagement has diminished to the point where I don't think I could really do this :-(

I still hear some good stuff but not enough to make a proper round-up and the whole tone would be a bit depressing.

Given my favourite "funky" tune of the year is Nick Hannam & Tom Garnett's "You Want Me", perhaps we need a "jacking house sceptics, let me draw your attention to this" thread...

― Tim F, Thursday, 28 June 2012 21:36 (10 months ago) Permalink

Tim, I would be all for that.

I feel roughly the same though. I've heard a number of great things but there just doesn't seem to be near as much out there these days. I was hoping I was wrong!

― matt damon & the jb's (the anephric project), Friday, 29 June 2012 00:41 (10 months ago) Permalink

I think there are some great Funky tunes coming out!

You guys know about Tickles previously known as Mr. Tickles on Roska Kicks and Snares label? You should check out his SoundCloud, LOADED with quality Funky tracks http://soundcloud.com/mrtickle
He also got up a free EP, Higher Stakes!

This tune by Tickles is absolutely LARGE! Called 'Wot U Do'

Fuzzy Logik got a new track with MyShy called 'Pose' but I can't find a link to that :S

Meleka dropped her song 'Love You Baby' which is cool has that Funky vibe but it doesn't touch 'Go (Crazy Cousins Mix)'

I Killed Kenny dropped a track called 'Let's Go' which is pretty large http://soundcloud.com/jamiegeorge/i-killed-kenny-feat-jamie

Greenmoney dropped a track also called 'Feels Good' BIG BIG BIG http://soundcloud.com/greenmoney/greenmoney-feels-good-feat

Yep, that's new funky I could get that grabbed my attention. What you guys think?
