Make Me Proud (The New Mastersounds)

In 2012 Freestyle Records teamed up with broadcaster, actor and DJ Craig Charles to release the first instalment in The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club compilation series, featuring many funk and soul classics as featured on his BBC 6 Music radio show and from his live DJ sets. Since then, two further instalments have been released and now Freestyle are proud to present the biggest edition yet; Volume 4.

Volume 4 opens up with three disco tinged bangers; Kylie Auldists’ “Family Tree” will transport you directly onto the dance-floor of New York's legendary Studio 54 discotheque, Smoove & Turrell’s cover of Hot Chocolates’ “You Could’ve Been A Lady” has got that Newcastle boogie vibe down, Lexsoul Dancemachine have marinated “Beef Grinder” in sizzling hi hat cymbals and a spicy clav riff so saucy Stevie Wonder would be shocked!

In the words of Craig Charles himself, “I give you The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club Volume 4 - the cream of the current crop, the choicest cuts of my favourite slices of the slinkiest soul, weapons grade funk bombs - it does exactly what it says on the tin and then some.”
