Vinyl & CD here: https://thesleepersrecordz.bandcamp.com/album/a-family-affairAs the brains and the muscle behind The Sleepers Recordz, Ivan Makvel stays busy, having kept a steady stream of street dance-oriented releases flowing into the ears of modern funk connoisseurs internationally. Yet, the majority of these releases have come from other artists, with Makvel's own music taking a back seat while he forged a unique lane for his label. No longer, as he brings you his first full-length in years - A Family Affair.

It's a fitting concept for an artist/producer/talkboxer who has put so much energy into the release of music by others. Many of those who can claim projects on The Sleepers join him, allowing this Family Affair to live up to its name. Mofak blesses the album's title track, a thunderous p-funk inspired opener, while XL Middleton shows up on two songs, dropping raps on "Keep Movin" while alternating between singing and vocoder on the electro boogie cut "Show The Way." On "Get Down," Bougito shows up to share production duties over a funk track sure to become a staple among poppers and lowriders alike. Moniquea sings and raps on the decidedly-left coast "I'm Not Sayin Nothin," while Funkmaster Ozone brings electro vocoder sensibilities to a disco-tinged boogie track on "We Come To Jam."

Temu offers his polished vocal style on one of the album's high points, "Essential Funk," a simultaneous nod to a pandemic-stricken world and a declaration that the party must still continue. Gil Masuda of Toronto's Love Touch Records is featured on the house-inflected "How You Make Me Feel," and fellow LTR artist Maya Killtron lends her unique vocal and violin one-two punch on "About You." Ivan only ventures out fully solo for two songs on the album, "Wild" and the previously-released "I Got Funk" - A move to be expected from an album designed to bring an entire funk family together.

“A debut album that’s full of life and colour… a sound that’s unashamedly and ecstatically his own.” – Dazed

“Even at its most restrained, ‘Redinho’ is super-produced; full of lush flourishes and layered harmonies.” – NME

“Digital funk that hot-wired my joints.” – Fader

The 15 track record, three years in the making, showcases those trademark Redinho vocal styles and the full weight of his unique production skills. Inspirations may come from the songs, synths and drum machines of 80’s Funk records and classic British Electronica but this record is very much a product of 2014.

S-BOOGY - BREAKOUT

The year was 1985 when Steven Schneider was introduced to movies Breakin' and Beat Street by his uncle, and that proved to be highly definitive. The libraries of funk, soul and even New Jack Swing became his passion at a tender age of 8. That paved the way for him to foray into the world of Dj-ing, tagging and rapping. G-funk became the main obsession in his life during the late 90s and early 2000,  but he re-discovered his love for Funk again in 2006. It also coincided with him dabbling in the world of synthesizers, which led him to buying his first Korg R3 with his life-savings. And as they say, the rest is history, and years of developing his skills led him to this. 'BREAKOUT' holds its own ground extremely well, in the midst of the current stable of worthy funk producers, but S-Boogy in our opinion, has shaped his own identity and vibe. He clearly has done his homework and knows the intricacies between the various genres that he has been exposed to. We are pretty sure you will be hearing a lot more about this guy in the months to come.

G-noF - Bangin

G-noF - I Don't Give A Sh*t

On his third single, Reality Jonez brings a new dimension to his "new oldies" sound, by upping the usual tempo to a more danceable pace, and melding it with warm synth work that suggests the influence of late 70's/early 80's proto-boogie that became the dancefloor standard in R&B circles of the day. Still saying true to his soul-based roots, the track is nonetheless carried by pianos, plucking guitars, and live drums, effectively forming a bridge between the sometimes distant worlds of contemporary soul and synth funk. 

Jonez' vocals reach out to the woman he's been longing for, hoping that she will "just say yes" to his propositions of love. His straightforward sentiment proves that the tried-and-true subjects of love and romance never sound tired when delivered authentically. 

Produced by Matthew Middleton

Reality Jonez - Just Say Yes

Mofunk Records Presents:
Diamond Ortiz "Special Request". Aviailable now on limited edition cassette. 
Purchase/Download available at www.MofunkRecords.com

"Diamond Ortiz is back with a fresh selection of original material, shining light on his masterful production, playing of instruments, singing and signature talkbox stylings. Drenched in G-funk synth bass and feel-good boogie vibes, sunshine synths and clean guitars, icy vocals and soulful talkboxes spitting game in harmony, Diamond is carrying the torch of his OG funk mentors into the future. Honed over many years on stages and in studios across the Bay Area and LA since youth, Diamond's grassroots DIY recordings are filled with flavor and feel, and the culture of the scenes he's grown up around.

From super sized slappers like "Poster Girl" and "Playeristic Tendencies", to the sweet saccharine gangster boogie of "1-900" and "Slow Mo", and the love filled duet "Next Level Lovin'" with label mate Moniquea, Diamond's deep understanding, versatility and command of the genre as a whole are clear.

Diamond Ortiz makes his mission clear on "Special Request" - spreading love and joy thru old school music and bringing people together through the funk."

"Next Level Lovin'" by Diamond Ortiz ft Moniquea

Through the power of music Individual Unit was founded in 2015. The Edmonton based group is undoubtedly one of the bigger forces pushing Hip Hop culture. During the day you can catch the group teaching for free in downtown Edmonton, working with the youth, and travelling across Canada to compete in competitions. During the night they are cyphering, exchanging ideas on how to improve circumstances amongst the community, and recording videos. Individual Unit has developed incredibly since they first met in 2012 and the collective consists of members that dance, produce music, and focus on visual arts.
