Mos Def - Umi Says

An absolute pleasure to remix Afro Cluster, their original track combined elements of Afro, Funk, Hiphop and Disco with lovely soulful vocals from Helena May and a gangster (but good vibes) MC flow from mr Skunkadelic.

My remix takes all these styles in but also throws in some b-boys breaks and extra jazzy percussion to make this genre-spanning banger!  This was in the pipeline being tweaked since last summer and a key part of my sets, Hope you dig it as much as I did making it.

To coincide with Ian Dury's birthday @dicky-trisco has shared an edit of the great man's 1977 single 'Wake Up And Make Love With Me'.

Dicky Trisco - 12th May 2017:

"The first 45 single I ever bought was by Ian Dury and The Blockheads and was called ‘Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick’. I bought it in a newsagent store called John Menzies, which had a black weekly chart board with plastic letters on it that was updated by hand each week.

I can’t really remember how I came across the track, or if it was just potluck. I probably heard it on Top of the Pops, or on the weekly chart show on the wireless as it used to be called back in those days. Anyway I bought it and to this day it is a song that I love and would be happy to hear any time, any place and it introduced me to the music of Ian Dury and The Blockheads.

Ian Dury for me reflected what pop music and music in general was all about back then – a longing to be different and to make a difference. He was a fascinating character. My Dad said he looked like a bloody idiot, which only made me admire him more. When he performed he had a real edge and his singing style was more like someone talking, or at times even shouting in his own London accent rather than something shiny and polished. And you have remember these were the days of The Bee Gees, Barbara Streisand, Leif Garrett and other such highly manicured artists. He also had a tremendous amount of personal style with his hats, braces, rolled up trousers and boots. And it was all this difference literally rolled together as well as the great music he made alongside The Blockheads, which pulled me in as an admiring youth.

And the music…I couldn’t quite explain it at the time. But it was unmistakably ‘New Wave’ although I wasn’t exactly sure what that meant either beyond a handful of artists I was into like Blondie, Talking Heads and The Specials. It was a bit ‘Punk’ and DIY for sure and that was definitely a good thing. But it also had the funk. The Blockheads were a groovy outfit of great musicians. Much later I discovered that Chaz Jankel of The Blockheads went on to make some excellent disco influenced solo productions and that these tracks plus songs by Ian Dury and The Blockheads were played by groundbreaking NYC DJs like Larry Levan in the Disco scene out there and graced the floors of seminal clubs like the Paradise Garage and The Loft. My musical journey from awkward youth to being a DJ myself had come full circle all thanks to Ian Dury and The Blockheads.

Anyway I can’t say I am an expert on Ian Dury or The Blockheads to be honest. I love a lot of their music and it has now been with me my whole adult life while many other things have come and gone. In fact at one stage I used to buy any copy of ‘Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick’ on 45 that crossed my path. But the thing that seems of significance to me and that I wanted to share here with you is the DIY spirit and original style of those times. And they were great times! Acts like Ian Dury and The Blockheads did things differently and did it their own way and gained recognition for what they did via their music around the world. I salute them for that and it gives me, and I hope you, more than a few reasons to be cheerful.

So as a tribute to the genius and spirit of Ian Dury and The Blockheads and as my own personal way of saying thanks for the influence it has had on my life, I would like to share this rework of one of my favourite tracks on this his birthday. THANKS IAN DURY AND THE BLOCKHEADS! Your music really has made me feel like a lucky bastard x "

Funkin Basstards make a high profile return with this fantastically groovy two track bonanza entitled 'People Under The Snare'. The title track is a super smooth tribute to funk, complete with a soulful vocal presence and additional features from Kid Stretch & Selectah Kats. On the flip side we treated to an organ-infused summer roller which goes by the name of 'Chick Sick'. These two are a must for any BBQ playlist you have lined up

The Flirtations - How Can You Tell Me (Uncle Ted Edit)

Been sitting on this one for a while having featured it on my Winter Warmers Mix back in September last year.
(https://soundcloud.com/fvuk/dj-xs-winter-warmers-funk-soul-mix-2017).

Lots of looping, few added drums, hopefully gave it a little more ooomph & structure for the modern taste whilst keeping close to the original for the purists.

Got to be honest, it's one of those tracks I've spent far too many hours trying to get those beats lined up cleanly (you know the ones!).

Anyway, bit of a Friday freebie so enjoy, XS!

Ice Cube - Today Was Good Day (Lucaj's Funked Up Remix)

Paul Traeumer is an electronic music project which integrates acoustic sounds, synthesizers, a wreaking beat and a dash of melancholy. For this EP, we followed the dark side of modern times. „Why wait for 1984?“ connects downtempo rhythms  clogging around 100 bpm. There are two pills for you. „Embrace The Dark“ or „Panic Now And Avoid The Rush“. You decide.

PREMIERE: Paul Traeumer - Panic Now And Avoid The Rush [ᴀᴋᴀsʜᴀ ᴍx]

French house DJ-producer Kulkid and rising vocalist Kaleena Zanders have teamed up for a compelling collaboration titled 'Skyline'. Produced during a road trip through US national parks, the track conveys the excitement of travel and the raw beauty of nature. Kaleena Zanders brings the cherry on the cake with her warm and soulful voice, delivering a powerful and sentimental dimension to the song.

Kaleena Zanders had this to say on the new track: "While staying completely original, Kulkid's production in "Skyline" embodies the energy and feel of artist such as Lane 8, The Magician, Amtrac & Kidnap.  Coming from a background in vocal soul house, I felt it would be unique to show more emotion in my writing and vocal performance on a beautiful track like this."

Kaleena Zanders recently joined Mixmag, AKG and a team of exceptional artists for a wholly unique electronic music retreat in Woodstock, New York. With an emphasis on seclusion and artistic solidarity, Zanders reflected on her love of improvisation and joined some talented producers in the studio to provide powerful vocals over their tunes.

<2019 UPDATE> 
Six years ago, i released this bootleg right before i embarked on the Mongol Rally, a 37-day long journey from London to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. The fact that this song is still relevant in 2019 is more than I ever could've hoped for, and for those still listening to this today I'd like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, and that your support means the world to me. 

As for me, 2018 was a momentous year for me for I have come out of a long hiatus from releasing music. I released an EP under @horizonterminal with a buddy @lam_chop and also have been doing steady releases on my Spotify and Instagram channels. 

For those that would like to follow along, please come along to my Instagram (@meticmusic) where I am more active and we could connect! In the meantime, I've rambled a lot, so let's chiiiiiillllll - to the next episode :)
</2019 UPDATE>

was in the middle of working on a follow up to The (Sonic) Chronic when it dawned on me that it was in the same key and almost the same bpm as Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang. Couldn't resist this rework. No rights intended or reserved with this bootleg. 

here's to a summer to remember-
