In 2012 Freestyle Records teamed up with broadcaster, actor and DJ Craig Charles to release the first instalment in The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club compilation series, featuring many funk and soul classics as featured on his BBC 6 Music radio show and from his live DJ sets. Since then, two further instalments have been released and now Freestyle are proud to present the biggest edition yet; Volume 4.

Volume 4 opens up with three disco tinged bangers; Kylie Auldists’ “Family Tree” will transport you directly onto the dance-floor of New York's legendary Studio 54 discotheque, Smoove & Turrell’s cover of Hot Chocolates’ “You Could’ve Been A Lady” has got that Newcastle boogie vibe down, Lexsoul Dancemachine have marinated “Beef Grinder” in sizzling hi hat cymbals and a spicy clav riff so saucy Stevie Wonder would be shocked!

In the words of Craig Charles himself, “I give you The Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club Volume 4 - the cream of the current crop, the choicest cuts of my favourite slices of the slinkiest soul, weapons grade funk bombs - it does exactly what it says on the tin and then some.”

The result is a gritty and soulful mix of inspired afrobeat and big band funk. Keyboardist/songwriter, Will Rast is well known for his work as a sideman for a variety of artists (Mya, Federico Aubele, etc.)

Perfection only happens once, and so much so, they said it twice.  Body Language’s first single from their forthcoming fourth LP Travel Guide, Perfection, brims with pillow-y synths and saccharine splashes, however this nectar only looks so sweet on first glance. With lyrics musing on the destruction of a flawless world and the so called invincible, their warning glides atop a luring and sugary instrumental only to have it completely unravel right before the listener.
