The Freestylers deliver their 4th album "Adventures In Freestyle". The new album sees Aston and Matt wear their dancefloor-friendly hearts on their sleeves once again. Ranging from the techno-punk stylings of 'Security', through the cinematic-string soundscape of 'Infernos', to the five and a half minutes of typical Freestylers filthiness that is 'Painkiller', which sees them team up with Oz drum and bass bods Pendulum, the album is a unique concoction of styles, pinned together in many cases by the vocal talents of long term studio partner, Marcel aka SirReal. Marcel's anacreontic lyrics espouse the virtues of everything from living the fast life to drinking Carling Black Label, on a slew of the album's highlights.

Elsewhere the album twists from the lyrical battering of 'Fast Life' to the trademark Freestylers booty bouncing on Jump 'N' Twist, while 'Could I Be Dreaming' comes on like Fun Lovin' Criminals on a day trip to Brighton. Smoky soul samples are the order of the day on down-tempo gem 'Pocket Full Of Sadness', while newcomer Corinna Grayson adds her vocals to 'In Love With You', a track that seamlessly blends the boys' song writing sensibilities with their breakbeat heritage.

"All of the vocalists we've worked with on this album are underground or unknown", explains Matt. "We didn't want to go down the route of using big names to get noticed, we hope that the songs will do that for themselves. We've been working with Marcel for a few years and his style just seemed to fit perfectly on the album. He's also been touring with us, along with Valerie M and the rest of the band, and really delivers something special when we play live. He can work a crowd perfectly, rather than just chatting non-stop over the records and has become an integral part of the Freestylers live experience".

Could I Be Dreaming

So stoked to unleash my icons remix this year. As some of you may know, I've been battling cancer for the last few months and it basically turned my life upside down. This song is about stepping up to a challenge and not giving up, which made this remix so inspiring for me!!!

So without yammering on too much, biggest of ups to the Ghetto Funk crew and I hope you enjoy this tune :)

Friends! Romans! Countrymen! Lend us your ears!

It’s that time of year again when we invite some of our favourite producers to have a crack at remixing iconic tracks of their choice. We’ve put a bit of a twist on it this year. Being quite proud of the body of original Ghetto Funk tunes we’ve released to date, we’ve thrown open our own vaults to some of our in-house producers and turntablist monsters to have their wicked way with us. The results are astounding, imagine having JFB stick his fingers in your inner most workings…it certainly takes the breath away!

It’s our way of saying thank you to you for following and supporting what we do, we’d be nothing without you and it makes us proud to have your love, we hope this year’s Icons destroy your dance floors all over the world!

Big love,

Ghetto Funk HQ xx

Long time collaborators Father Funk & Bear Twists team up for their first EP release as a duo, 4 tasty cuts of medical grade funky bass music, seamlessly blending the sounds of funk, disco and hip hop with the more modern sounds of glitch hop, garage and drum & bass. These are tracks for the dance floor as well as the home listener - just as bass driven as they are driven by their musicality and soul. The “Disco Biscuits” EP has the energy and charm of the pairs notorious bootlegs (played by DJs all over the world) but this time more instrumental, with fresh production, live instrumentation and a more varied sound palette. It’s an exciting change for these two Bristol based producers.

“This EP is about 4 years in the making, so I’m very excited to share it with the world! Bear Twists is one of my favourite people to work with and I think we’ve really broken some new ground with this EP, working with lots of new sounds and new approaches to production. Enjoy”
- Father Funk

"Very excited to finally be bringing you guys some tasty treats Father Funk and myself have been cooking. Will is one of the best producers I know and it is always a pleasure to work with him. The idea for this project was to do something different and original from our normal bootleg madness. Taking ourselves out of our comfort zone and into vaguely unknown territory. We had a lot of fun making this and hope you have as much fun listening.”
