unless it gets wild further down the line somewhere, it's no big deal alas.

Thanks, trace and rtc! I do hope as FS evolve and expand into other areas that they don't completely abandon their signature bubbly, hyper-colorful, intricately convoluted Funky/Garage sound, because there's no one I'm aware of to fill that void.

I wish they'd done a little more with "Oliver Twist" but I feel ridiculous even saying anything negative about such a horn o' plenty

three weeknd remixes? :)
I'm on my fourth download attempt, fingers crossed.

OK, Vybz Kartel remix much better than any of the Weeknd remixes. The pitched up Buju, ehh.
― Josiah Alan, Monday, 21 May 2012 13:39 (1 year ago) Permalink
Now I'm trying to figure out which one of their Rihanna remixes are superior.

cake
― The Reverend, Monday, 21 May 2012 14:25 (1 year ago) Permalink
Yeah, that Cake remix. This whole collection is super generous and awesome!
Does anyone know the significance of the titles (Miami Bass vs. Loveshy) btw?
― MikoMcha, Monday, 21 May 2012 14:40 (1 year ago) Permalink
Yes! Love that Buju Banton remix, brilliant that one, as are they all, including the Rudekid remix they just put out. I wouldn't think the Weeknd (or Bruno Mars for that matter) would be the best material for them to remix, but I think they all work, love the dark garage vibe of those. Ridiculous how many good tunes Funkystepz have amassed.

No I don't, and I haven't listened to it yet (dl it at work). But a huge part of me wishes that Loveshy takes its inspiration from Kristine Blond's "Love Shy", the Club Asylum remix of which is one of my all time favourite pieces of music ever.

I actually assumed this and feel likewise.

yeah i assume that too
massive lol @ how they pitch drake's voice to sound like some sort of gremlin on "the motto" remix
― kanye kardashian (lex pretend), Thursday, 24 May 2012 06:44 (11 months ago) Permalink
the "oliver twist" one is a bit pointless though
CAKECAKECAKECAKECAKE probably takes the cake
it's funny cuz there's a tennis player whose nickname is CAKE and worlds are colliding here

CAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKECAKE has been in my head for the past three days and it is making my life better. Can these guys not just get Lily Mackenzie or whoever to do a full album of banging vocal tracks of their own so I don't have to feel guilty about not turning off Bruno Mars/Drake?
― boxedjoy, Friday, 25 May 2012 22:55 (11 months ago) Permalink
also one of the simplest pleasures I'm getting from listening to this collection is from shouting FUNKYSTEPZ at moments it could/does fit in, I might have to create a "best funky producer audio tag" poll
― boxedjoy, Friday, 25 May 2012 22:57 (11 months ago) Permalink
I have the "FUN-KY-STEPZ" and "PRE-DI-TAH" tags enter my brain at the randomest moments
― The Reverend, Friday, 25 May 2012 23:04 (11 months ago) Permalink
I also get the Crazy Cousinz "oh", Cooly G's "mmmm-mwah", Ill Blu's "eww", Champion's "champion sound" and "Roska Roska Roska" popping into my head a lot. I'm sure you could argue that it says a lot for the songcraft of these producers when even their sound tags are earworms.

yeah, you're right -- it's kind of a hook in itself... they really deploy it so well

― The Reverend, Saturday, 26 May 2012 07:29 (11 months ago) Permalink
Lil Silva and Miss Fire are two more Funky producers with sound tags, I'm sure I'm forgetting some. Wonder why so many in Funky? I agree Funkystepz's is the best, it not only lets you know it's them, but how they deploy it right before the drop really pushed the tune even higher.

i always think of the crazy cousinz tag as that sing-song "cray-zee cou-sinz, cray-zee cou-sinz"
― kanye kardashian (lex pretend), Sunday, 27 May 2012 11:10 (11 months ago) Permalink
I always think of the Ill Blu one as the echoey deep computer voice 'ill-ill Blu'. I don't think I spotted the eww until the thread on here. MY faves are at the mo are prob Funkystepz and Champion. Worst was prob when you go see Marcus Nasty and you get a dreary voice slowly saying over every other track 'marcus nasty dubplate special' even if the song had been out for years.
