(Piano Cover) Gary Jules - Mad World

Available to buy on ltd edition 7" vinyl (only 300 pressed) here www.juno.co.uk/products/funkshon…-strut/601212-01/
Following on from Last year's Funk Bomb; To The Yard Parts 1&2, Here are the promo clips for the new 45 out on Bandoni Music in the Spring 2016. That old Funkshone breaks sound on the A side (The Strut) complete with roaring Hammond solo meets a heavy but ethereal, newer kind of funk vibe on the flip (Spiritual Interlude II) that sees a typically heavy Funkshone drum groove complete with ghostly Bass lines contrasted by swirlng Hammond and synth textures. Possibly one of the most contrasting releases in the Funkshone catalogue to date, Featuring co producer and Keys player Nino Auricchio on Keys, these tracks see Mike playing everything else you hear. A full band version of 'The Strut' was released on the first LP 'Shining' back in 2009 but after repeated requests from DJs and a few that had heard this version, this was pulled from the vaults and dusted off for your listening pleasure! The B Side 'Spiritual Interlude II (The Heist) has also come from the archives and been remixed and mastered. This track has not been previously released. Both will be available on a limited edition (300) vinyl single on Bandoni Music in Spring 2016. Follow Funkshone on Facebook and Twitter for announcements on release dates and further release info from Funkshone and more.

SPIRITUAL INTERLUDE II (THE HEIST) TEASER CLIP - B Side

Hello, everyone!

I got a little bored over the break so I decided to play around with Herbie Hancock's 'Chameleon', and play all of the parts by myself as I wanted to have a little challenge. I also used the opportunity to play around with some soloing on the Rhodes!

Heaven Shine

'Kintex' is a track taken from my debut LP released on Ninebar Records in 1998 entitled "Starchildren'. Inspired by a range of filmscores, ambient pieces and 1970's Jazz Funk, it captured some of my best performances on instruments other than drums. I'm particularly pleased with the keys parts, especially the rhodes solo towards the end of the tune. This tune also features Neil Corcoran on Bass (Mother Earth - Acid Jazz) who did an amazing job of giving this tune the best bass lines possible! Whilst solo'ing on keys, I remember vividly vibe'ing off those bass lines!)I still listen to this 19 years later! I may even re release this and a couple of others next year. What do you think? Would you buy it? Would you play it out? Let me know in the comments section as I'd be very interested to know in what format you'd be interested in purchasing and where some of you would pay this. For those that will straight off rip the tune from here, thanks for nothing, at least you enjoyed the music.....

Kinetix

First released in 21 years ago in 1996 under my own name. This was my first real solo release on Monkey Funk Records. This record opened a lot of doors for me. Artwork by Leo Estob. Monkey funk was a label started by Orin Walters (Bugz in The Attic) and Nick Prince to release music that very few were actually making back then. I was making Trip Hop in the very early 90's before most folk called it Trip Hop. This tune features Barry Blackwell on Sax and was the first time I'd used horn lines on a tune. Amongst all the music I made and released back then, this is a tack I'm still very proud of.

We Made It

A nice DJ mix of heavy Funk and soul by Mike Bandoni of Funkshone

Vendetta paradis!

From the Funkshone vaults.... This is one of the first ever Funkshone recordings and is unheard and unreleased. This instrumental version of The Raw was never released on vinyl. We felt it was time you heard it. Heavy Funk for those that can dig it....

THE RAW - INSTRUMENTAL MIX

An old track I made many moons ago. It was never released because I didn't send it anywhere. I just created this from an initial idea I was enjoying. Perfect sun set vibes....

Lykke Li "I Follow Rivers" (The Magician Remix)

CK303's tribute mix to the father of Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter. http://ow.ly/l2S7a

CK303's deep investigation into Daft Punk's influences led him to discover the music of Thomas Bangalter's father, Daniel Bangalter. Under the name Daniel Vangarde, the D.I.S.C.O. legend worked with the likes of Sheila B. Devotion, The Gibson Brothers, was sampled by Erykah Badu, wrote for Banarama and released under several monikers in France. Working with fellow writer and producer Jean Kluger as the Yamasuki Singers in 1971, they released cult album, Le Monde Fabuleux Des Yamasuki, as a pseudo-Japanese concept album of pop songs. The song "Aieaoa" on the album was later recorded, as "Aie a Mwana" by Bananarama, eventually becoming the first UK hit for them. He also worked extensively with 1980s act, La Compagnie Créole and was known for maing pop records with experimental tendencies such as left-field instrumental sections and incorporation of world music influences.
