Funk 3.0

All stores & Vinyl: https://smarturl.it/NitramZeusAndDrinaJ

Producer Nitram Zeus and vocalist Drina J join forces to bring you two slabs of sophisticated modern funk in all of its glowing neon glory. "All Night Long" makes no attempt to conceal its obvious dance floor appeal. Quantized synth-drenched grooves reminiscent of The System combine with an intensity to evoke thoughts of peak hour movement at Paradise Garage. Drina J's performance shines through beautifully and balances the retro-future production of the song with more contemporary vocal stylings. On "Love Language," the duo is joined by Temu who contributes his own vocal alongside Drina over a more midtempo track that glistens with icy DX7 chords, and should be well-received by anyone following the current resurgence of the UK street soul subgenre.

As always, we're bringing these two gems into physical form with a limited blue vinyl 7" plus picture cover, limited to just 150 copies!

Stylin' first aired on 3RRR-FM in July 2001, and has occupied the Friday 12-2pm timeslot ever since. 10 years and 500 shows later and Ennio Styles has featured many of the artists here as guests of the show as well as others like Q-Tip, Carl Craig, John Legend, Hudson Mohawke, Terry Callier, Juan Atkins, Dam Funk, Mad Mike (UR), The Bamboos, Mark Pritchard, Roy Ayers, Fat Freddy's Drop, Jazzanova, Gilles Peterson, Seiji, Common, Mulatu Astatke, The Pharcyde, Outkast and Bugge Wesseltoft. If you like any of these artists, there will be something for you on Stylin' 500. 

Part 1 presents the soulful side of hip hop, jazz, boogie and, er, soul. 

Native American/black singer Kyra Climbingbear gets things started with the anthemic rock-tinged 'Champion' featuring a verse from John Robinson (Scienz of Life). Micah St James and Imani (of The Pharcyde) represent the LA hip hop scene, with Imani riding a smooth Spaceboy Boogie X production previously only available in Japan. Amin PaYnE and Andras Fox are two upcoming Melbourne beatmakers, here demonstrating their soul-chopping skills. Atlanta jazz/soul vocalist Nonameko lays it down over a sweet production from Tanya Morgan's Von Pea. Monica Blaire (who has sung for Waajeed/PPP, Andres and Black Milk) teams up with her Detroit-based Silent Riot crew for a nearly acappella version of Zapp. US vocalist Olivier Daysoul has collaborated with Hudson Mohawke, Onra and Oddisee and teams up here with London's Andre January for an unreleased uptempo jam that should appeal to fans of Prince and Outkast's Andre 3000. 

Lanu and Mark de Clive-Lowe (half of The Politik with Bembe Segue) have been friends of Stylin' since the beginning and explore the space between jazz, soul and club music. The late Abby Joyce delivers a heavenly vocal on Lanu's tune. Germany's First Touch stay true to the 80s boogie sound in all but the title's reference to '2011 Mix'! 

Four emotional vocal jazz tunes round out Part 1. John Ellis is a Mancunian keyboardist who has played with Cinematic Orchestra and DJ Vadim. 'He Speaks (Live)' by LA's Nailah was first played on Stylin' in 2009, setting off a chain of events that led to Gilles Peterson airplay and gigs, collaborations with Robert Glasper, Nicola Conte and Jose James and a record deal with Universal (as Nailah Porter). Since then this song has been unavailable and Ennio Styles' edit (which includes three minutes of additional material from the original performance) is released here for the first time. The WES Group hail from Washington DC and here offer some gospel-tinged jazz with shades of their Baltimore friends Fertile Ground. Versatile NYC-based trumpeter and vocalist Leron Thomas closes Part 1 on a reflective note with a jazz ballad reminiscent of Tribe's Doug Hammond.

Vinny's words about the release:

"Stand up and be counted! Speak the truth from your heart! Spread the word about love and marriage equality!

I've been banging on about my new single, "Be Free With Your Love", for quite some time. The inspiration for it came from the news I read about the struggle for same sex marriage all over the world from Australia, where I started writing the song, to the USA, France and beyond. The fight continues today with protests in Paris and the argument being debated in Washington DC. Even in far flung places like Uganda, the freedom to be your true self is under siege.

So, for the time being, as a sign of solidarity, I decided to put up the full stream of "Be Free With Your Love" on my Soundcloud page ahead of its official release. I wrestled with myself about the idea of doing this because I think the fight should not be commercialized.

However, music can be transforming as it was in the spirit of the late 60s, early 70s and mid 80s, when some songs were written with the express purpose of sending a message to the world about certain causes and events. Whether they are protest songs, songs of hope, something thought provoking, or simply ones that make people happy and have a little boogie on the dancefloor, they take on more personal meanings for many while the battle wages on.

Several close friends have suggested I make the connection known between "Be Free With Your Love" and the inspiration behind it. The title was even co-opted from a news article about gay people from two different countries being threatened with deportation because the federal government doesn't recognize their relationship.

Being a proud, openly gay man for nearly three decades, as well as someone who would like the naturally given right to marry the person of my choice, I gave in and decided to share this song today. I've rambled on enough!

Five small words say so much.

"Be Free With Your Love" is a collaboration by super Swedish DJs, Drop Out Orchestra, and New York City based songwriter/producer/DJ, Vinny Vero. The single will be available from all online, digital retailers on April 8."
