Bringing the old school funk vibes. Appreciate your work, thanks for sharing!

Okay, this is a complicated one...
Back in 2006, Plushgrizzly from Aykaism.ch (now defunct) invited Jon H from Fort Knox Five to play a gig in Switzerland. He recorded the whole evening for a later broadcast on our common radiostation bigbeat.ch (now defunct). I'm not sure, we did ever play it, though... Not even sure if it was ever published in any way.
15 years later, I found this gem on my harddrive and played it during two episodes of my radioshow Eclectix, airing every Sunday, 6pm (cet), on evosonic.de.
First, I didn't want to upload it since I didn't know if it's okay with his friends and family over in DC, but after being asked by FK5 to upload it somewhere public, so they can share it with the world, I guess it is okay... ;)

For those not in the know: Jon H was 1/4 of Fort Knox Five, who died 6 years ago way to early in August 2015. He was an inspiration for way more people all around the world, than he could ever think of and I'm one of them. Thank you, Jon, for everything.

Funk The World 73

Roast Beatz - Return of the Funky Man

Ladies and gentlemen, gather round and let me re-introduce you to funky man aka Roast Beatz!

This meaty fella has gone back to his roots and cooked up a mouth-watering 60-minute mix of hip hop and funk that'll have you shaking a leg for the duration. 
Armed with aggressive scratch skills, Roast Beatz is like a master chef in the kitchen, whipping up an audio buffet that'll make your taste buds tingle. 

Don't be fooled by is name - RB is anything but burnt out. As a radio and club DJ he’s stockpiled a never-ending supply of riddims, all expertly blended into a seamless sonic experience that'll have you bouncing out of your seat. Whether you're a die-hard funk head or a boom bap backpacker, Roast Beatz has got a lil summin summin for everyone. 

So, sit back, get hype, and let Roast take you on a familiar but exclusive audio adventure into funk and hip-hop territory. Plus, don't forget to bring your appetite – after peeping this mix, you’ll be ravenous for more!

Roast Beatz - Return Of The Funky Man

Pune-based rising talent ISHXN returns to Dynamite Disco Club with his latest groove-laden cut, El Funk Caribeno. Blending funky guitar licks with infectious Afro-Latin rhythms, the track brings a vibrant energy to the floor. A soulful, house-style male vocal rides over tight percussion and warm basslines. The standout moment is the bold, brassy horn on the main drop—pure dancefloor fire. This one's built to move bodies and lift spirits—essential for any DJ set.

Music Cool Groove Mix

Early in 2017 I performed a live mix on the 'Under the Spinfluence mixshow', broadcast from the Upper East Side, New York City. My goal with the mix was to showcase some styles of music and artists that don't get much attention in NYC, despite filling the dancefloor whenever I play them at Sunken Disco. In particular I wanted to focus on sample heavy Ghetto Funk / Nu Funk bootlegs and some choice house remixes. It's basically a funky bass-driven bootleg frenzy that ups the tempo towards the end. 

Unfortunately, the original recordings of the show had some issues with one of the stereo channels, so I recently re-recorded the mix at home (which is why it's taken me so long to post). 

You can hear the original show, with me chatting a lot, here - https://www.mixcloud.com/spinfluencelive/under-the-spinfluence-mixshow-011517-ft-peludo-whcs-hunter-college-radio/

I'm quite proud of how many tracks I managed to fit into my 55 minute slot. Props to all the artists and thanks to DJ Boxxy Brown to having me. 

The show was sponsored by the Spinfluence app - http://spinfluence.webflow.io/
