5AF teamed up with funk legend Bootsy Collins for this hit. With Bootsy's unmistakable voice and bass line and Five Alarm Funk's exceptional groove and horn section, "We Play The Funk" became an homage to the genre. CMC & Silenta in their unique style used the parts of the song to produce a driving anthem.
The rhythms of the horn section are supported by unique percussion and then explode in the main part with the driving creaky bass and dry drums. The final touch is the powerful "We Play The Funk" vocal with the trademark sound of Bootsy Collins.

KEEP THE FUNK REAL
by Slynk & Fort Knox Five
FKX136 - Fort Knox Recordings

Worldwide Release Friday September 3rd, 2021:
https://orcd.co/funkreal

What happens when you combine some electronic funk from the Nation's Capital and blend it with some glitched-out beats and basslines from Australia? You get a wobbly, funky dance floor banger, aptly titled Keep The Funk Real, the lovechild of Slynk and Fort Knox Five. Evan Chandler aka Slynk and Steve Raskin of FK5 have been long time friends and have played shows together going back a decade. As part of the Danio Music crew the two have represented funky beats across the globe, but it took both of them living in Vancouver to finally collaborate on a track.

Keep The Funk Real is a mid-tempo glitch-hop banger that features Evan’s signature killer keyboard riffs, fat bass drops, funky guitar hooks, strings, horns and bumpin’ beats. Exactly what you would want from a Slynk and FK5 cocktail. To top it off the vocal sample comes from the late great Mustafa Akbar and imbues the song with his grown & sexy vintage tones! In Slynk’s own words; “It’s funky fresh glitch-hop basslines are guaranteed to create a magnitude 7 earthquake in your glutes and upper thigh area - or your money back!”

Keep the Funk Real is the third installment of the DC to BC series, following on the heels of last months soul funk single, Playin' with Fire featuring Emily Molloy and the dance-floor banger that started it all, Jinglin Janglin, a collab with K+lab.

This tune is a funk meets glitch-hop banger that is primed to ignite dancefloors and festivals worldwide. The release also includes an instrumental mix for the DJs so keep the funk real with this funky wobbly dance floor shaker and stay tuned for the next installation of the DC to BC series coming soon.

Fort Knox Five is proud to present their latest single, “Whatcha Gonna Do” featuring Mustafa Akbar with killer remixes by The Funk Hunters and Father Funk.  

Fort Knox Five’s longtime friends and brothers in funk, Vancouver-based The Funk Hunters have delivered one of the baddest floor-rocking remixes ever!  This track debuted in the Fractal Forest at the 2015 Shambhala Music Festival where it electrified the masses and brought the crowd to a fever pitch. The Funk Hunters have injected their signature sound into “Whatcha Gonna Do” with big drops, huge hooks, and enough glitch and disco to make you put your hands up!  This is a guaranteed banger full of West Coast synths and chunked out beats. Easy to see why this one is already a staple of The Funk Hunters amazing live sets.

The next “Whatcha Gonna Do” Remix is by Father Funk, the Leeds, UK based producer known for his clever remixes and smashing edits.  Father Funk’s remix begins with Rob Myers’ retro wah-wah guitar and Mustafa Akbar’s soulful party chants then quickly escalates into a wobbly, bass heavy, butt-shaking glitch-hop monster! Hold on tight as Father Funk breaks it down, takes it back to the original soul vibe and then finishes strong with a deep groove.

The original mix of “Whatcha Gonna Do” featuring Mustafa Akbar is a quintessential Fort Knox Five slice of retro disco funk – straight from the ’70s – infused with tight, electronic production. With its live horns, funky guitar riffs and Mustafa Akbar’s soulful hooks, Fort Knox Five has created an irresistible party anthem. DJs and radio stations alike have rallied behind “Whatcha Gonna Do”, making it one of the lead tracks from Fort Knox Five’s 2015 album Pressurize The Cabin.
