KEEP THE FUNK REAL
by Slynk & Fort Knox Five

Worldwide Release Friday September 3rd, 2021:

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.

Out on Friday November 5th, 2021

This past summer, Fort Knox Five released “Playin' with Fire”, a fresh slice of retro-soul-tinged modern funk featuring the sweet soul meets rock n roll vocals of Emily Molloy.  The original  is a strutting, head bobbing groover and caught the attention of both WBBL and X-Ray Ted who were eager to remix the track.  FK5 have been longtime fans of both producers, but these remixes are the first outings for these artists on Fort Knox Recordings.

Having been an admirer of his hi-fi glitch hop production for years, it was a dream to get WBBL to work his magic on a Fort Knox Five track.  As you would expect, WBBL added some overstuffed bass, zippy electro-synths and crisp drums with Emily Molloy's soul strutting vocals to create some space-age funk! In true WBBL fashion he has upped the ante and transformed the sultriness of the original into a funky 105bpm  glitchy-bass monster, both beautiful to listen to and bombastic enough to get your booty shaking!.

X-Ray Ted has been pumping out the funky beats on our good friends' Bombstrikes label, and his tracks have been an integral part of the FK5 DJ sets over the past few years. On his remix, X-Ray Ted ups the tempo and gives the track a healthy dose of what It  needs for the dance floor: breakbeats!  We are talking about the  classic party breaks style, as in breakdancers, b-boys and b-girls.  Crisp funky drummer beats along with  flutes,  percussion and a funky vintage bass line come together for a classic b-boy anthem vibe.  

We are so pleased to have finally gotten our U.K. brothers WBBL and X-Ray Ted to remix Fort Knox Five! Playin with Fire has become one of our favorite original tracks of the past couple years, and these two remixes take the funky soul of the original track and flips them into some dance floor gems. Instrumental versions are also included on this new release.

Scour Records HQ are thrilled to welcome a quartet of top-notch Australian music producers to the gang - in the form of Mood Swing & Chevy Bass, Swim Inc, and none other than legendary Glitch Hop supremo Cheshire! 

Mood Swing & Chevy Bass X Cheshire have served up ‘No One Above’, a deep and brooding glitch-hop number that’s riddled with original instrumentation, growling basslines, stuttered vocals, and a sound-scape that’s so sci-fi that when it came to remix duties there was only one name we could think of. Unfortunately, they weren’t available, so we gave our pal WBBL a call - who flipped it into an infectious bass house belter - perfecto!

Wrapping up the release, Swim Inc joins the Mood Swing & Chevy Bass collab party with ‘Higher’. A bass-heavy glitch funk groover, built around a sample that’s just on the tip of your tongue but also never quite there, making it instantly recognisable and completely original at the same time - a rare combo indeed.
