Doin' my thing on Honkey Phonk!
http://soundcloud.com/jaylfunk/honkey-phonk-artist-ep-03
"In a World of Wobble and Bass Honkey Phonk comes back with a straight Oldschool Funky Breaks Release at its best.
Jayl Funk presents the old Funk Flavor like you had in the golden BigBeat and Funky Breaks era. BigBeat at its best by Voodoocuts and the pumping funk sound by Morlack. Do your thing and be a Cool Monster! "

"Once again Honkey Phonk's label boss Jayl Funk takes a backseat to let his roster shine, this time on a split-single. First up in Berlin-dwelling Voodoocuts, with a pulsating slice of brass and bass duelling, classic funk. On the proverbial flip is Morlack with a killer 'Bootsy goes hip-hop' electro-boogie workout." (Juno records)

Some people have asked for lyrics...here they are

MIDDLE OF NOWHERE

Out to the sea I throw my dreams
It will bring them back to me
Me and my friend, time suspends
We are seventeen.
I don’t know my name, don’t know the time
But I know I’m here
And I’m gonna watch the sun go down

Chorus
In the middle of nowhere I know myself
And if the barrel is empty I am very well, very well
In the middle of nowhere I know myself
What’s a barrel a week?
What’s a  barrel a week...

And now from the grave I hear my Ma
She is calling to me
Baby be brave, baby be hard
This is how you must be
So that is why I live my life
Like my days are dying
And I never turn out the light.

Repeat Chorus

At the end of the night I close my eyes
And I hear these voices
“Ella be cool, Ella be wise, you make clever choices”
So that is why I live my life 
Like there’s no tomorrow
And I’m gonna watch the sun come up

Repeat chorus

And I’m gonna watch the sun go down...

Middle of nowhere

A rough edit of a tough cumbia.  Pedro Ramayá destroying it!

Cumbia Del Cafe (Monk-One Edit)

A short expedition into the much overlooked tipica cumbia sound of Panamá

The heartache, melancholy and joy in the Panamá Tipica sound is hard to match and like no other to experience. It comes from a rich background of regional musical traditions, carnival rivalry and hotbeds like the legendary 'Festival en Guarare'. As I understand it, Panamanian cumbia was first played on violin until the arrival of accordions on the Isthmus, most early acordeoneros were violinists first and foremost. This mixtape comprises of some of the best 45s from the Herrera and Los Santos provinces, from the mid 50s through to late 60s. Over the last few years I've had the good fortune to meet several of these wonderful artists. Featured here: Dorindo, Papi Brandao, Oswaldo,Fito Espina, Ulpiano, Ceferino and more... (photo compliments of Papi Brandao). Viva Panamá!
