V.A. - CLIMAX

Originally recorded in 1973, "Where Are We Going" was supposed to be part of the legendary "Let's Get It On" album. 
For some reason it did not make the cut, and this beautiful song written by Larry Mizell was first heard through a jazz/funk cover by Donald Byrd & his Blackbyrds. 

It's only in 2001 that the original Marvin Gaye version was released as part of "Let's Get It On" LP reissue featuring various b-sides & studio sessions.

Ever since I first heard it a few years ago, it has immediately become one of my favorite Marvin's song, because of its irresistible groove, Marvin's singing at his best, but also its thoughtful lyrics.

Here is my DJ-friendly beefed up take of this overlooked track.

The finest Britfunk (1980-1983), selected by @saint-james. Available on November 6th 2017 as vinyl LP with Linernotes on Chuwanaga. Available as Digital as well.

Between the end of the 70's and the early 80's, a new sound appeared in London and its surroundings, a unique mix of Funk, Jazz-Funk and Disco labelled as Britfunk. Characterized by its raw energy that can put the needle In The Red, this up-tempo sound was a match for the UK's dancers and Jazz-Funk clubs.

This first release by French label Chuwanaga features some of the most exciting, rare and powerful tracks from that era compiled by the Parisian DJ and activist Saint-James, with bands such as Equa, Potion, Inch by Inch, Congress, Index and Spookey. It features also an insert with an in-depth focus on this musical era.

These young British musicians were equally inspired by the American Jazz-Funk productions and by Dub music and Reggae pushed by the Afro-Caribbean community who were at the heart of Britfunk’s development. They gave Funk a unique British flavor. However, more than just a music genre or an enclosed expression of black Britishness, it was part of a genuine musical and social movement with its own dedicated labels, fashion sense and most importantly its own set of values that fueled the whole scene. Britfunk built itself within a multicultural evolution: black people, white people, straight and queer, all dancing in the same room to the same loud sound.

Available now at The Pusher Distribution / info@thepusher.fr www.thepusher.fr/thepusherdistribution.html

Snoop Dogg - Drop It Like It's Hot (Rhythm Scholar Pastel Pimp Remix)[Explicit]

REF: CHUWANAGA006
ARTIST: World Series
TITLE: Try it Out / Head Over Heels
FORMAT: Vinyl 7"
Release Date: July 1st 2019

Tracklist: 

A - Try It Out
B - Head Over Heels

Description: 

Parisian label Chuwanaga curated by Clémentine & Saint-James is really proud to announce his next release: the reissue of an almost forgotten 7" by Britfunk band World Series, bringing together jazz-funk, AOR and a really funky vibe. A perfect fit for summertime.

Like a good recipe, this little beauty actually got all great ingredients: great Rhodes parts, catchy vocals, solid basslines and lovely Moog-esque synthesizer melodies. "Try It Out" brings together a classy AOR-Funk/Soul vibe with a solide funky groove. On the other side, "Head Over Heels" looks more towards proper british Jazz-Funk territories with its uptempo beat and slapped bass.

Back in the days, World Series was a local live band around North London. They used to tour a lot around early 1980’s in and around London in places like the Bull and Gate in Kentish Town, the Production Village in Cricklewood, The Cricketers at the Oval and Dingwalls in Camden. On the same circuit were bands like Cayenne, Gonzalez, Morrissey Mullen and the Breakfast Band to name a few. In 1983, they recorded a session at Woodcray Manor Studios in Berkshirand release  "Try It Out / Head Over Heels" as a 7" single, financing themselves the pressing. They were actually delighted when one reviewer said they were a bit like Level 42 "but with decent vocals". 

Thanks to the original crew, Mike Frankel (Lead Vocals/Guitar), Keith Mawson (Bass), Richard Newell (Drums & Percussion) and Andy Park (Keyboards), Chuwanaga is proud to present you this single with a great artwork from William James Thurman, including also an insert with lyrics and pictures from the band. One not to miss!

"Normalmente no subo grabaciones de mis liveset.
Pero esta ocasión fue más que especial.

Sunset The MARINA crew me invitó a hacer un live distinto, enfocado en el viaje y olvidando la cadencia de baile.
Durante algunos meses estuve trabajando en este set que viaja a través del universo Barrio Lindo desde el origen hasta la actualidad con mucha música que nunca ha visto la luz, colaboraciones con amigues y otras canciones tan viejas que ya casi había olvidado.

Este fue el primer show en mi segundo tour en Japón que aún estoy realizando.

Espero disfruten

HNYPOT 357: Shaun J Wright's Lullabies Of Lust & Longing Mix

If you’re familiar with the Boogie/Funk scene, you’ve definitely came across the name “Nick Martinelli” in the credits somewhere; whether as a producer (solo or with his acolyte David Todd), as arranger, writer, mixing board or remix duties. He has contributed some of the most notable song within the genre, songs such as Loose Ends “Hangin’ On A String”, Fat Larry’s Band “Act Like You Know”, or 52nd Street “Tell Me How It Feels”, but his catalog’s range is quite exhaustive, diverse and lots of his catalogue is kind of “slept-on”. We’re talking about a superstar producer, who has hits on both the U.S. and U.K. charts, and at the same time has an abundance of underground boogie/disco classic anthems. 

With that in mind, I wanted to pay homage to him, so I decided to do a tribute mix with some of my records that had the name Nick Martinelli on them. (I could easily do 3 more).
