"Reggae-hip-hop partner of DJ Maars and longtime hip-hop producer in his own right, Tom Showtime, comes correct at the close of the year with this original boom-bap hip-hop cut. You all know the recipe: a fat break, a sample from a sixties or seventies groove (in this case The Round Robin Monopoly’s sinuous and wah-wah drenched Life Is Funky) and someone to drop dope verbals. That’ll be D’Fro then – and you know you can always rely on a man named after his hairstyle. Life sure is funky, ain’t it?"

The Snugs are a collaboration of DJs, musicians and artists from the dirty south west country who, aside from running one of the best nights in Bath, play some of the heaviest funk, soul, hip hop, reggae and rock n roll known to man.

The production powerhouse for this exciting project is none other then Kelvin Swaby of The Heavy.

On vocals we have Hannah Symons who's amazing voice you may recognise, as she is currently competing on BBC's The Voice. She was also co-writer of Rudimentals 'Powerless' and sang Temple Cloud's 'One Big Family' which featured on a KFC advert as well as appearing in UK charts.

Second Hand Audio have officially brought a new take to this classic and re worked it in their unique Hip Hop style.

The Snugs - Strugglin' (feat. Hannah Symons) (Second Hand Audio Remix)

When Featurecast & The Gaff got a chance to play together recently, it didn't take long to get to talking about their mutual love for Stevie Wonder's "Hey Love" and how the world needed an edit of it, and just like that, a few sleepless nights, some dusty records and a little bit of finesse: "Ain't Got Time" was born! The ultimate Marvin Gaye meets Stevie Wonder track that never existed......So why did a collabo between these two legends never happen? They both recorded for Motown at the same time and were fans of each other!....Here's a little history lesson: 
 "Too busy thinkin bout my baby" was written by the Motown team of Whitfield, Strong, and Bradford in 1965, and first recorded by The Temptations a year later.
Marvin's cover of the tune came out a few years later, and was his 2nd biggest hit of the 60's, right after "Heard It Through The Grapevine" in 1969 at the age of 30...Curious who was in Marvin's heart as he was singin this? If You do the math, it's none other than Tammi Terrel, who he fell deeply in love with as they began working on their tracks ("ain't no mountain high enough) around the same time....Unfortunately, Tammi wasn't into Marvin in that way! She was much younger, early 20's, and apparently favored "darker men", Marvin was a light skinned brother, and perhaps wasn't what caught her eye? Well, that's the breaks, Tammi put on a good show for sure...
Now, Marvin Gaye was 11 years older than Stevie Wonder, who, at the time, was about to breakthrough to his hugely successful crossover lp's at only 19 with "Signed Sealed Delivered"! 
Stevie Wonder's "Hey Love" had come out on his album "Down TO Earth" in '66, at only 16, and a dope version was covered later by SoulSister Bettye Lavette, You should check it! Not many know about that cover :-)
So, there was a big age gap, with marvin bringout out songs of soulful love in his 30's, and Stevie bringin the Funk in his 20's!!!
in 1991, almost 25 years after it was released, De La Soul would flip "Hey Love" into "Talkin bout Hey Love" where it was brought back all over again for a new generation of Hip Hop heads around the world (a young skateboarding gaffer and a LIl Featurecast being 2 of them :-) 
25 years after that, we added in the horns from an early Serge Gainsbourg record so this tune would appeal to fans of De La Soul, be enjoyed by Motown lovers, and any fans of DJ's with dope cuts.....Sampled the OG records to provide the instrumental parts used...
We kept this mix so classic, for old and young alike, even your grandma can still appreciate it, nod her head to the fatback drums, dope cuts and scratches....we hope this version makes its rounds for a long time to come, giving you the Marvin & Stevie collaberation that you always wished for.......cheers!

Chali 2na - How We Do (Roy Howdy Remix)

Welcome to Toy Beats' entry track for Westwood Recordings Remix Contest. 

The brief: 
Take Chali 2na from Jurassic 5's track 'How We Do' and remix it.

I sped it up from 87 to 105BPM, took the Vocals and the Violin from the original and then funked that shit up some.

I hope you all enjoy my version. 

Peace and Love.
