One of our absolute favorite places on earth to play…Here is the Audio/Visual Set we performed in the Fractal Forest at the 2013 Shambhala Music Festival!

Originally performed LIVE on 4-turntables alongside our Sax and Guitar players, we've gone back and re-recorded the Saxophone just for this mix!

Thanks to all the amazing people who have shown us such incredible love every year at Shambhala, and in all corners of the globe. This is our labour of love for you! So download, enjoy, and share away :-)

Much love, 

Nick & Dunks

P.S. Our set time this year was cut short as one of our laptops died right before the set, so we started 25 min late... Back your shit up people!

The Funk Hunters Present: The Detour Podcast #03

Jazzanova Spring Mix

Love Strike

Edit of my all time most played 7" funk single, with some James Brown thrown over the top - pure funk!

STRICT TAPE vol. 5   "Funk 70 Party"   Hosted by Veust Lyricist

Discogs: http://tinyurl.com/SoulBrigadaKAT45rec
Release/catalogue number: KAT45-006
Mastering: http://www.studio-schoenrock.de (Stuttgart  | Germany)

Starting things off we have Runnin' Out, a mid-tempo memphis horn-led beauty of a track originally out in 1968. SoulBrigada take the original, toughen up the bottom end, add in kicks, claps and percussion and the odd filter, speed things up a tad and lengthen the track by a couple of minutes getting the most out of Mable John's effortless and gargantuan diva-esque vocal delivery...

On the flip we have another soulful treat with a killer rare groove cut from 1971. Originally recorded by Lee Sain (and arranged by Charles Miller) SoulBrigada extend the intro, add in drums, samples and effects all adding to a truly infectious groove and vocal that will have you screaming out for more...

Cosmic Soul 06-Superbreak

Forget everything you know about Soul. In this session, JP gently unveils the best of funk and soul music! He offers a very moving compilation of classics and undiscovered gems, which have been kept away for too long. Those authentic vinyl treasures are served with love for a one-way journey to enjoyment.
The set is excellent: 1 hour and 15min of exquisite vocals, romantic bass guitars and synthesizers keys. It’s the sweetest and the smoothest compilation ever delivered by Dj VJP. Also slightly sexual, it has been crafted as a perfect combo to seduce each and every listener.
Soul music is kind of a mystical genre and the “soulection” delivered here is a drip-drop of love, lust, and delicious feelings which together set a blooming atmosphere for an ideal one-to-one.
The package mixes some of the best boogie, funk and soul music, 3 genres which all won a well-deserved hype back in the day.
The flawless session features the precious 1974’s ‘I Love You More And More’ by Tom Brock, arranged by the great Barry White, then ends perfectly on the 1982’s Johnnie Taylor ‘What About My Love?’. 
With repetitive jazz flutes, some trumpets and the tenderness of a few piano keys, no need to tell that the spirit of soul is more existent than ever.
VJP treats us earnestly once again, by covering the generous repertory of soul and funk music.

Store Mix 024 - Black Merlin

SoulBrigada was founded in 2009 by the german artists & musicians Alex D. and Fabio V. With this project they want to pull down stereotyped thinking and musical barriers and present a wide range of various music. As the name SoulBrigada associates Soulmusic is obligatory for them but they’re not limited to this genre – the main point is the SOUL in the music. Moving between Beats & Breaks, Global Grooves, Electronica, Disco & Rare Groove, the listener can always expect an exciting and versatile trip.

Over the years, they have been involved in many projects - regular club nights in Germany & Austria with illustrious international guest DJs, their own monthly radio show on the Swiss-based radio station GDS.FM or the organization of national record fairs in Germany and Austria. 

Numerous DJ sets on festivals, clubs & radio stations take them across Europe to spread that SoulBrigada vision: from Portugal, France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Austria to Croatia, Bulgaria & Greece. 

This passion has also led to music production, which has accumulated a considerable number of releases over the years. It all started in 2011 when their first production, a remix of a song by the 'Gilles Peterson Havana Cultura Band' was officially released on a limited & exclusive vinyl EP. Further releases followed on KAT45, Matasuna Records, Légère Recordings, Resense and Samosa Records. More releases will see the light of day in the near future.

In summer 2016 the own label Matasuna Records was launched, which is specialized in reissuing rare music from all over the world, but also doesn't disregard great contemporary music. The label has built up an excellent reputation among music connoisseurs over the years, so that many of the vinyl releases are already sold out.
