DJ Love posted a video of himself playing the keys from Bizarre Inc. classic Rave song "Playing with Knives". I asked him to play the keys at 100BPM to see if I could do something fun with it. The original song was one of those songs that everyone really threw down to. Back when there wasn't really genres in dance music it was all just "Dance" music. Hope you dig our take on it. PLUR

Various Artists - Funk Butter Volume 1

OUT NOW ! : https://www.junodownload.com/products/funk-butter-volume-1/5468579-02/ 

Release date: 25th February 2022 (Juno Download) 5th March (Bandcamp)

Genres: Funk & Disco Re-edits

Welcome one and all to a brand-new Cuttin’ It Fine compilation. Funk Butter Volume 1. Funk Butter is audio cream product churned from Funk & Disco components, combined with occasional Hip Hop elements. The side effects from ingesting Funk Butter is an overwhelming impulse to do the Disco Finger, Bus Stop and dare we say…. Get Down. All of which are highly recommended following a controlled dosage of this miracle margarine.

Kicking off proceedings is our old pal Frankee More. He’s beautifully re-created the original De-Barge banger, paying attention to the drums, ensuring there’s enough room for the DJ’s to blend while giving us some bonus instrumental action. 

Stepping to the plate next is young Mr Fitz. Always eager to smash a remix he’s chopped up the queen Sharon Jones “This land is your land”. Once more, re-worked the drums for the dancefloor crew and added Staten island’s finest as an outro for the Hip Hop heads.

It’s been a minute but Pecoe’s back on Cuttin’ It Fine with this beautifully crafted disco slammer. With Elements of The Sisters Love and Roy Ayres, expect horns, bongo’s, sunshine and happy faces from his sterling contribution: “Sunshine Love.” 

Late to the party as always Uncle Roast stops by and donates one of his famous party starters. His Disco interpretation of Chic Good Times with a side serving of Tag Team, is the perfect pudding to round of Volume 1 of Funk Butter. Don’t get too sleepy, volume 2 is on the bubble.

DJ | Producer | Soul Provider | Matasuna Records | The FunkBro Show

Retro Roland Riso, has over 25 years of club experience behind the decks, with a true passion for all things funky, filled with soul and truly groovy.

As a toddler, he'd spend countless hours enjoying his parents' eclectic record cabinet; listening to artists such as The Beatles, Sergio Mendes, Sly & The Family Stone, The Turtles, Taj Mahal, even The Osmonds and Bay City Rollers.  Little did his folks realize, Roland snagged a few of those gems over the years to add to his impressive collection.  

While fully immersed in listening to music, he began learning piano at 6 years old, which inevitably launched his love to create and produce.

Once considered the "Hardest Working DJ in Philly", Retro Roland was spinning 5-6 residencies on a weekly basis, including a highly regarded internet radio show, "Sounds of The True School".  During his 4 year run, Mr. Riso's guests included Ursula Rucker, The Last Emperor, Rich Medina and Mpozi Tolbert.

He also ran a successful monthly Jazz and Soul Record Show, which was widely popular amongst record collectors, DJ's and producers, including Cash Money, Jazzy Jeff and Quest Love.

Riso also helped engineer Cozmic Cat's legendary Philadelphia party, "Groove Lounge", which brought musicians, vocalists and DJ's a platform to perform in united, rhythmic harmony, which featured a then unknown, Jill Scott.

As an URB Magazine mixtape runner-up, The Soul Provider has shared the bill with incredible performers, including Afrika Bambaataa, Felix Da Housecat, Dubtribe, King Britt, DJ Craze, Vikter Duplaix, house pioneer Robert Owens and the legendary Barbara Tucker.  He recently opened up for Grammy nominated artist, Flo-Rida.

A number of Retro's remixes are in regular rotation on The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show, featured on BBC Radio 6, with funk 45 releases on Matasuna Records.  Plus, Roland hosts a weekly music broadcast, The FunkBro Show, on RadioActiveFM.

Notorious for working the crowd and rocking the dance floor, Riso maximizes every opportunity to drop a funky "Retro Roland Riso" remix, morphing the room into a sweaty, swanky frenzy!
