Lead single from The Allergies latest EP, Calling The Shots. Available now at Juno.

"They've really come up trumps with this EP. A return to slamming funky breaks...and I love 'em for that" Craig Charles (BBC 6music)

It leads off with dance floor bomb, Special People – A cut that’s pure b-boy dynamite and sure to rival their chart-topper, Heartbreaker, as another peak-time classic. The rest of the four-tacker takes in Jurassic 5-style hip-hop jams (React), uptempo soul stompers (As We Do Our Thing), and boombastic blues rock (Feel Alright), and features rappers Skunkadelic and Figure of Speech, as well brass from the KPS Horns and licks from guitar legend, John Fairhurst.

I've been really enjoying this group lately as they have a nice afro-funk feel to their wide variety of covers & originals. This tune is something near and dear to my heart as one of the first funk pieces I heard & loved, and I think they did a fabulous job covering it! I love breaks, so I chopped the tune up a little & gave those drums some extra shine. Go give them a like over at https://soundcloud.com/funkallisto. cheers!
