@justsayfouk might have been curating Outplay since 2013, but their ‘Butterfunk EP’ is in fact the duo’s first proper EP on their own imprint. It’s not that they’ve been resting on their laurels: they’ve dripfed a handful of EPs on the likes of Heist and House of Disco over the past few years, and released solo efforts on Kolour Ltd and Razor ’n Tape that stormed the charts. It’s been fascinating to see the Dutch pair slowly break the mould, moving from heavy sampling in favour to an emphasis on original instrumentation and production.

The Butterfunk EP is a fine showcase of their prowess in the studio, loaded to the hilt with contemporary dancefloor funk. Things kick off with the rolling drums, off-beat percussion and seriously infectious Hammond lines of Organ Freeman. Title track Butterfunk is aimed squarely at the hips with its smooth keys and perfectly placed vocal, while some acid lines give the track a little edge. 

Flip over for the bumping ‘Wong Way’, a chunky workout with a rubber bassline. The finale of the EP is ‘Winter’, a fantastic slice of 80’s inspired downtempo mushroom jazz.

Since first catching ear of Germany via Australia convert Jad & The's (Jad Lee) productions thanks to Berlin champions Toy Tonics, the long haired yahoo has continued to impress this writer. Between countless sets and co-managing the ever popular BEATS OF NO NATION, Jad's still got time left over to craft his own audio wizardry.

Today it's a giddy tune by the name of Twist Club. Made up of prominent cowbells, shuttling percussion, whistles and perky key sections, this an all out daytime hammer! Imagine that one friend who's being a bit of a sad sack and not boogieing, this is that tune to get them off their sorry bums and moving! Twist Club doesn't try too hard to be something it's not. A track to warm the heels for what's undoubtedly going to be a long and joyous day of dance.

This number's off the incoming Twist Club EP out through London's FINA Records. FINA have released previous gold from the likes of Saine, Closed Paradise and Paso. Owner Simon Morell and Corbi have one of the best attitudes about what he chooses to press saying "I'm interested in depth, warmth, funk: something I can play in years to come and still think it's ace. I have zero interest in following the trends and signing stuff just because it's Beatport Top 10 fodder."

Simon we wholeheartedly agree! Best get twisting...

2XM - Astral Lakes EP (incl. Remixes from DJ Psychiatre & Explorer Of The Humankind) BLAQTAPES006

Hot on the heels of the Jaxx Madicine remix of Kyoto Jazz Sextet on Local Talk, Tommy ”Tubojazz” Garofalo - goes on a solo adventure once again. 

His previous EP ”Unbreakable” had equal parts of soul, jazz and funk blended together with a house twist.  The follow-up ”Night Colors EP” shows both that and a deeper electronic side.

Night Colors EP

Turbojazz - Two (12'' - LT093, Side A) 2019

Cologne’s resident conjurer Hodini steps up for his second solo EP on WOLF Music Recordings. Bringing elements from his hip hop background into this unique five tracker, Hodini dusts off long forgotten cuts, sampled with that MPC chopped graininess, blending lo-fi vocal sound bites with deft jazz loops, all adding a distinct, textured edge to his work.

‘Velved Groove’ and ‘Special Shoutout’ kick things off, snapping in funk fills and skipping guitar riffs behind a concoction of hazy spirals that transfix from the off. The former is an uptempo, twisted, jazz club house jam and the latter a bubbling voyage through the afterhours, bourbons flowing and faces flying from every corner.

A master of misdirection, Hodini also moonlights as one of Germany’s leading underground hip hop producers HulkHodn, proving he can flip styles and meld genres with ease. Featuring his alter ego, ‘Doggo Content’ is his nod to this - a crackling slo-mo trip through the intoxicated mind, soundtracked by stretched vocal snippets, wading bass notes and a crunching snare. 

Two of the harder-hitting club tracks close out the EP, both focused around hypnotic bassline carousels and looping layers. ‘Where’s The Wine’ interjects Rhodes flickers with bongo rhythms and unsettling laughes, as ‘One4Fries’ marries off-kilter, piano stabs alongside jazzy flourishes and fizzing percussion.

Hodini - Special Shoutout (WOLFEP053)

Very old tune of mine and part of the Raw Cast Compilation which will be out some day or never.
