KEEP THE FUNK REAL
by Slynk & Fort Knox Five
FKX136 - Fort Knox Recordings

Worldwide Release Friday September 3rd, 2021:
orcd.co/funkreal

What happens when you combine some electronic funk from the Nation's Capital and blend it with some glitched-out beats and basslines from Australia? You get a wobbly, funky dance floor banger, aptly titled Keep The Funk Real, the lovechild of Slynk and Fort Knox Five. Evan Chandler aka Slynk and Steve Raskin of FK5 have been long time friends and have played shows together going back a decade. As part of the Danio Music crew the two have represented funky beats across the globe, but it took both of them living in Vancouver to finally collaborate on a track.

Keep The Funk Real is a mid-tempo glitch-hop banger that features Evan’s signature killer keyboard riffs, fat bass drops, funky guitar hooks, strings, horns and bumpin’ beats. Exactly what you would want from a Slynk and FK5 cocktail. To top it off the vocal sample comes from the late great Mustafa Akbar and imbues the song with his grown & sexy vintage tones! In Slynk’s own words; “It’s funky fresh glitch-hop basslines are guaranteed to create a magnitude 7 earthquake in your glutes and upper thigh area - or your money back!”

Keep the Funk Real is the third installment of the DC to BC series, following on the heels of last months soul funk single, Playin' with Fire featuring Emily Molloy and the dance-floor banger that started it all, Jinglin Janglin, a collab with K+lab.

This tune is a funk meets glitch-hop banger that is primed to ignite dancefloors and festivals worldwide. The release also includes an instrumental mix for the DJs so keep the funk real with this funky wobbly dance floor shaker and stay tuned for the next installation of the DC to BC series coming soon.

I forgot to upload this EP to Soundcloud for like 4 months. Woops! I guess you should get subscribed on my bandcamp to make sure you never miss any songs due to my own incompetence ever again.

You'll remember this track from the beginning of my 2019 Shambhala mixtape. You can hear the full mix here: soundcloud.com/slynk/slynk-live-shambhala-fractal-forest-2019

This track doesn't appear on any of my mixtapes and hasn't been released anywhere. You're hearing this track for the first time! I was trying to channel that classic French funky house vibe. I hope you like it. 

Peace!

This is a bit of a goofy mishmash of fun samples that I felt needed to live together, all wrapped up in a boom-bap style track that literally nobody asked for. It's basically an AV8 record except it doesn't suck.  

Enjoy!

I recreated the original track by Featurecast from scratch using the same original samples and construction. The original is such a banger but I felt it could use a bit of an update and with Featurecast retiring recently, it feels like the right time to release this. I couldn't help myself, I had to gently remix it as well haha! 

Hope you like it!

Calling all funky bass fanatics! Slynk here to let you know that my remix of “We Play The Funk” by Five Alarm Funk and the one and only Bootsy Collins is finally out! I’m so excited! What an honour to work with these absolute legends of funk. I poured so much time and energy into this remix because I wanted it to be as hot as possible and do Bootsy proud and I think I’ve done that. Not only did I remix the song, I also remixed the original artwork and created this animation! I was going for a colour scheme that gives you that opulent, royal vibe. Well suited for the legends on this track. And I mixed it with the dirtiest rawest funk vibes I could muster. So, purple and gold basically haha! I really hope you love the remix.

I know everyone says this shit but it would be really cool if you liked, commented and reposted this track. It actually helps me out so much. I don't have a marketing team. It's literally just me, writing, mixing, mastering, creating the cover art and then posting the track myself. And I rely on the help from you all to spread the word. I really appreciate you all for helping me out!

Love you! Stay funky!
- Evan
