The Fritz, beat maker extraordinaire and all round sample-based music enthusiast from Cornwall, returns to Ragtime Records with a Jazz Hop double A side, Lemonade, and Back in '89. 

Packed with vintage samples from London's 1920s swing scene and iconic Film Noir vocals, Lemonade is a glitchy lo-fi beat that's filled with rare Big Band loops that are blended with authentic Boom-Bap drums, MPC style. 

Next up is Back in '89, a swingy nod to the Golden Era of Hip Hop that's as atmospheric as it is catchy, with a stuttered sample, neck-breaking head-nod rhythm, and a warm low-end that's just right.

The Fritz - Back In 89

And I'm back! This time with a shiny new swing-hop tune released by none other than the legendary Ragtime Records. 

This project came about when we were all locking down from that killer plague just a few years ago. With time on my hands, I learned how to use the MPC I'd been neglecting, listened to a lot of Jazz, and got quite into Film Noir, especially The Big Sleep. All of that boiled down to this release, especially Lemonade. Not that the vocal has anything to do with that, I've just always loved the lyric. 'Lemonade was a popular drink, and it still is' - wise words, if I've ever heard any.

Breakbeat Paradise Recording is back to kick off another year with a solid funk release from the Greek funk band Nasa Funk who has cooked up the midtempo funky anthem Try &amp; Buy. The catchy original funk jam comes with a diverse package of remixes from Dal Platinum, TowlieDJ and Crash Party who has all taken their personal twist on the track.
Nasa Funk who consists of Alexandros Spanidis: drums / Costas Chasiotis: bass / Alexandros Papoulidis: guitar / Charis Kapetanakis: saxophone, keys / Georges Perin: vocals, talkbox released the epic Gonna Work It back in 2020 and are now ready to follow up on the success with this new EP release. The original cut starts out with lead vocalist George Perin showcasing some growling vocals before switching into his well-known falsetto voice while being backed up by a catchy funky backing track by the Nasa Funk band. Try &amp; Buy keeps us on our toes and takes us though a range of sections including the a solid saxophone solo ending with a talkbox vocal.
For the remix duties we looked for producers that could put different twists on the original while staying true to the funk vibes. Dal Platinum has done just that on his remix which combines some ghetto funk glitch sounds and some funky beats, which goes perfect with Nasa Funk&rsquo;s backing track.TowlieDJ has taken the vocals and flipped it into a true drum &lsquo;n&rsquo; bass anthem by bringing up the tempo and putting on some catchy basslines. To end things off Crash Party takes things back to the bigbeat era with some classic sirens and acid synth lines.
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings on the spot to continue pushing the funk vibes to new places. Look out for many more release lined up on BBP for 2023 on both Digital and Vinyl..

Nasa Funk - Try and Buy (TowlieDJ Remix)

Its been a while since we heard from Morlack &ndash; but this time he has teamed with Australian beat-master Bezwun for a 4 tracker filled with maximum dancefloor energy.The Double Trouble EP has been a little over a year under way, but I think you will agree with us that this was well worth the wait.The freaky funky vibes and big basslines and even bigger beats is what dominates all 4 tracks on this EP - from the low-slung grooves on Shine to the catchy house beats on Hand On Me.

In-between those we see some equally big grooves on the Mo Money jam that even brings in some classic breakbeats to go with the bouncy basslines. The 3rd cut slams on some progressive basslines and some proper funky Action!
The EP&rsquo;s is not about to go out without things getting real freaky on the Hands On Me track that brings back a classic groove and some sweet vocals.We might be in Double Trouble with this EP, but we are left wanted more from this dynamic duo. Once again BBP on point to deliver you the funkies breaks on the planet...

"Streight Outta Copenhagen (Part 2: DARCITY)"

The saga continues. Part 2: DARCITY takes you deeper into the underground - where Copenhagen's after-hours culture truly comes alive. If Part 1 was the warm-up, this is when the real heads take over the dance floor.
Featuring brutal beat crusher effects that pound through the darkness and relentless rolling basslines, this track embodies those moments when the tourists have gone home and only the true believers remain. This is København at 4 AM - raw, unfiltered, and absolutely relentless. After the breakdown at 01:40, prepare for total annihilation - a bone-crushing bass drop that will shake the foundation and detonate the dance floor into pure chaos.
From the strobe-lit corridors of Kødbyen's hidden gems to the sunrise sessions at unauthorized locations along the harbor, DARCITY captures that special Copenhagen magic - where boundaries dissolve and the music becomes everything. This is for the late-night cyclists racing through empty streets to catch the next party, for the collective roar when the DJ drops that perfect track at Distortion Festival.
The synths tell stories of Nordic summer nights that never get dark, of finding your crew in the smoke and lasers, of that moment when you realize the sun is coming up but nobody wants to stop.
Part 2: DARCITY isn't just a continuation - it's an elevation. Welcome to the next level of Copenhagen's electronic soul.
When the city sleeps, we come alive.
