Whiteboy Funk - Into The Future (FREE DL)

Available digial/vinyl here: https://band.link/PmhGN

Soul singer Alexia Coley from West London and German producer David Hanke aka Renegades Of Jazz team up for 'Magic Touch', an up tempo Soulshaker par excellence.

Originally conceived but not marked for inclusion in Hanke’s 2019 Nevertheless album release, Magic Touch was a masterpiece waiting to happen.

A big fan of Alexia Coley’s debut release, Keep the Faith, Hanke sort out Coley to complete the track with her unique voice and lyric writing. The sublime result of their collaboration was recorded by Nick Manasseh at The Yard, London.

A one listen only moment for Our Label Records supremo, Gu made it an essential release for the Germany based label.

"They've really come up trumps with this EP. A return to slamming funky breaks...and I love 'em for that" Craig Charles (BBC 6music)

We’re pleased as punch to welcome The Allergies into the Goodgroove family. To mark the occasion the two-man crew of Solid Steel legend DJ Moneyshot and Chai Wallah stalwart Rackabeat have put together the barn-storming new EP, Calling The Shots.

It leads off with dance floor bomb, Special People – A cut that’s pure b-boy dynamite and sure to rival their chart-topper, Heartbreaker, as another peak-time classic. The rest of the four-tacker takes in Jurassic 5-style hip-hop jams (React), uptempo soul stompers (As We Do Our Thing), and boombastic blues rock (Feel Alright), and features rappers Skunkadelic and Figure of Speech, as well brass from the KPS Horns and licks from guitar legend, John Fairhurst.

1 Fab Samperi & Skeewiff - Mr Body Rock [CLIP]

I remember when I was a little girl
A Hershey's kiss was my favorite thing in the world
When I was lost I would always turn to something sweet
A candy bar would always satisfy me instantly

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Caramel cream filled hundred percent filled
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
Cocoa, butter, honey, lover, you're like no other

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Like hot fudge you're too much I can't get enough
Of your chocolate, your chocolate
You are my favorite candy

Everyday you would always surprise me with somethin' new
A candle light dinner and a dozen roses just to name a few
(Few, few, few)
You always seem to know the things that I'm feelin'
You always give to me the things that I'm needin'
I can never let you go, you're the sweetest candy that I'll ever know

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Caramel cream filled hundred percent filled
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
Cocoa, butter, honey, lover, you're like no other

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Like hot fudge you're too much I can't get enough
Of your chocolate, your chocolate
You are my favorite candy

Chocolate, you're my chocolate
You're my chocolate
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
Chocolate
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
You're my chocolate, chocolate baby
Chocolate, my chocolate, my chocolate baby

Yes you are, my chocolate, caramel filled, my chocolate
Yes you are, my chocolate, cocoa, butter, honey, lover like no other
Yes you are, my chocolate, like hot fudge, you're too much
I can't get enough of your chocolate

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Caramel cream filled hundred percent filled
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
Cocoa butter, honey, lover, you're like no other

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Like hot fudge you're too much I can't get enough
Of your chocolate, your chocolate

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Caramel cream filled hundred percent filled
Chocolate, you're my chocolate
Cocoa, butter, honey, lover, you're like no other

You're my chocolate, you're my chocolate
Like hot fudge you're too much I can't get enough
Of your chocolate, your chocolate

Savages - You - 're My Chocolate

“Pawn’s Grief — Reimagined (Groove-Driven Cipher Rap)” Funk version
This lyric reframes the pawn not as a disposable piece, but as the rhythmic backbone of the system—a symbol of unseen labour, coded resistance, and soulful defiance. It blends cipher rap with groove, turning grief into motion and marginalization into melody. The pawn moves first, yet never chooses—its agency denied, but its impact undeniable.
The verses expose how the pawn is counted but not heard, used but not valued, yet it carries the beat of the streets and the pulse of the queue. The hook flips the narrative: though treated like a number, the pawn moves like gold—precious, powerful, and foundational.
Tone: Uplifting but coded Theme: The pawn as rhythm, resistance, and groove beneath the grid

Pawn’s Grief (1)  #Cipher Rap Funk

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.

Cockney Nutjob - Weezee Train

One of the most classic and respected mixtapes of ALL TIME by DJ JS-1 & Dj Spinbad... This is a mix of all blends and remixes done using strictly turntables and a 4-track cassette recorder in 1996... this mix set the bar really high for all mixes that came after it... DEFINITELY something you need to have in your collection... period.

DJ JS-1 & Dj Spinbad - ColdCutz Remixes (1996)

The idea is to mix the roots of American music with the various forms of world music to create an unusual otherworldly sound. The result is unique! With the energy of a Romanian brass band, blues, country, jazz, pop and soul of the 1920s and ’30s to the ’50s and ’60s meets Klezmer, Jamaican calypso, New Orleans R, swing, avant-garde jazz, Tuvan-Mongolian ballads and Middle Eastern fables.
