Brooklyn Dreams - Hollywood Knights (Uncle Ted Edit)

Looney Train by smokethatdank

Dj Woodo - Footwork Final Battle

Over the past eight years, Ikebe Shakedown has cemented a reputation as one of the boldest, most creative acts in the Brooklyn instrumental scene. Combining cinematic soul, Afro–funk, deep disco, and an irrepressible groove, Ikebe has forged a style all its own. Each song is anchored in the deep-pocketed pulse of its four-man rhythm section (Barnaby Alter, drums; Dave Bourla, percussion; Vince Chiarito, bass; Robin Schmidt, guitar) and driven by one of the tightest horn trios on the East Coast (Mike Buckley, tenor/baritone sax; Jason Colby, trumpet; Nadav Nirenberg, trombone), with tunes ranging from dance-foor burners to lush, captivating scores.

The band frst came on the scene with 2009’s debut EP, Hard Steppin’, from Colemine Records.  Praised by WNYC’s Soundcheck as “the perfect soundtrack for the unwritten Tarantino movie of your imagination,” the five–song release led to tours up and down both coasts and paved the way for Ikebe Shakedown’s first full-length LP on Ubiquity Records in 2011. Recorded at Killion Sound in L.A. with Orgone’s Sergio Rios and Dunham Studios in Brooklyn with noted producer Tom Brenneck, this self-titled album featured 14 blistering tracks that Okayplayer called, “an adventurous trip through time” and “one of the best releases of the year.” Having toured the record throughout the U.S. and Canada, Ikebe returned to the studio in 2014 for their follow up album for Ubiquity, Stone by Stone.  Recorded at Daptone Studios, the 10–song set let the band become more adventurous than ever before, weaving psychedelic textures and raw soul into powerful compositions, or as Wax Poetics called it, “a greasy and sometimes trippy funk world.”

Now, after hitting major jazz festivals, opening on extended runs for stars like Lee Fields, and touring with acts like Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Charles Bradley and His Extraordinaires, and the Monophonics, the seven members of Ikebe Shakedown are poised for their next big release in 2016. The band’s style has continued to evolve, with material that transports listeners beyond their living rooms and builds on the success that has led to musical features in series such as Eastbound and Down, movies like Our Brand is Crisis, and commercials for brands including Mini Cooper, Van’s Off the Wall, and Surfline. The songs are at once richly familiar and incredibly fresh, paying homage to classic influences while pushing a brand new sound. Defying genre or classification, this album proves Ikebe Shakedown is helping define the next bold wave in instrumental music.

The Brazilian Hipster (Skeewiff Remix)
by Fort Knox Five
FKX123 - Fort Knox Recordings
https://fanlink.to/Hipster

Often it’s just one song that comes to define an artist, becoming their marquee track. For Fort Knox Five that track is “The Brazilian Hipster.” Released on Fort Knox Recordings in April of 2004 the tune became an instant sensation and party hit, appearing on the famed Hotel Costes collection and the soundtrack to the Academy Award-winning documentary “The Cove.” The original 12-inch single, which featured the Dr. Rubberfunk Remix on the B-side, quickly sold out and has been out-of-print ever since. Now, exactly fifteen years later, Fort Knox Five are rereleasing “The Brazilian Hipster” on 7-inch vinyl for the very first time, with the coveted Skeewiff Remix on the flip side.

What can be said about “The Brazilian Hipster” that hasn’t been said before? From Rob Myers’ juicy Bossa Nova guitar lick to Steve Raskin’s retro-future production stylisims, there is something inimitable in every corner of this track. When those classic, heavy-hitting horns drop into that perfect pocket a little bit of magic starts to happen. This is the party you’ve been looking for, with low-key cool and laid-back hustle. “The Brazilian Hipster” has held up so well, over the past 15 years, it has earned a spot in the record bin of timeless tracks.

On the flip side of this 45 you’ll find a rare gem: the elusive (and now exclusive) Skeewiff Remix of “The Brazilian Hipster.” Skeewiff cuts a groove like only he can and delivers a complete reintrepretation of FK5’s seminal classic. Starting with a dramatic build, the squelching organs and bubbling percussion all come to a head in a funky, breakbeat ode to ’70s cool. Relentless from start to finish the Skeewiff Remix percolates with retro flair, dropping happy surprises all along the way.

And don’t forget to check out the cheeky cover art that references the original vinyl, (done by the FK5 themselves.) This package is, well… the full package. It sold out the first time, chances are it will again!

SUPPORT ME: https://flat-stanley.bandcamp.com/album/if-not-now-when

Influenced heavily by sounds from the local scenes and surroundings of Japan, I came back to LA with an entirely changed outlook on beatmaking. If Not Now, When? is the manifestation of inspirations from my recent travels. Above all else, it’s a coming of age project. It’s the scatterbrained feeling of a big life change. Like quitting your job. Or falling in love.
