BBP are kicking the summer of with the 4th instalment of the Breakin the Riddim series, this time with an array of styles for all.
Jayl Funk kicks it off with &lsquo;Come on Little Girl&rsquo;, getting your head nodding and feet bopping with some lovely subtle vocals, and pure reggae vibes in all, leading perfectly into the next track; &lsquo;Selecta&rsquo;. When BadboE gets his hands on any track, there&rsquo;s no disappointment, and that&rsquo;s the same with this one. Nice heavy sub bass rolling in the back behind some harmonica action and those vocal stabs bringing it all alive, before getting super bouncy. We&rsquo;re getting a bit spooky with &lsquo;Rhizoma&rsquo; by the Funkin Basstards. This is a real funk fuelled roller with all those essential elements including big horns, plucky guitars, a mean bassline a haunting vocal to provide of a proper funky, reggae vibes bopper.
Pecoe brings his own style as always with &lsquo;Bring the Booty&rsquo;, building you up with keyboard and guitar stabs, until it drops with some sweet vocals a flowing funk guitar, and a pumping bassline. Towlie DJs&rsquo; skills are on top form, with his cheeky remix &lsquo;Limbs&rsquo;. Getting uo tempo, and proper bouncy, thus is bound to be included in those summer festival sets. Time to get &lsquo;Step Step Step&rsquo; stepping with DJ Clairvo! Now a little change in style, getting some heavy beats, a big bad bass, and vocals getting you stomping the night away.
Finishing of, we have a rising star of the glitch breaks scene. Funkinright brings you &lsquo;High Yo&rsquo;, at track with one intention, and that&rsquo;s to bring that party to the next level. Starting with a real glitch bass, pumping along at mid-tempo, it breaks down and builds up to a big DnB banger, that will get those hands in the air!<br />Delivered using <a href='https://www.promo-cloud.com'>Promo-Cloud.com </a>

Let’s set the time machine back 20 years to 2002. New York’s Ursula 1000 (AKA Alex Gimeno), DJ/producer/multi-instrumentalist, started working on his sophomore album after the success of his debut, The Now Sound of Ursula 1000. His steady diet of ’90s lounge revivalism, UK big beat, German club pop, European library music, spy soundtracks, and Japanese Shibuya-Kei sharpened his skills in producing his own take on this melting pot of retro grooves and futuristic electronic beats.

This vision would be more fully realized for this new album. Ursula 1000 had an idea of a travelogue collection of songs, every track like a new stamp on a passport. For the opener, he originally had iconic model Verushka in mind for vocals. Locking her in became elusive and so he had a re-think. Swinging ’60s London. Groovy mod scenery. He needed a fun voice for this. Enter Rebecca Mader, who at the time was an up-and-coming model and actress, later to star in the hit series Lost and Once Upon a Time. A mutual friend connected them and she nailed the perfect cheeky, sex kitten delivery!

Inspired by the 1966 film Lord Love a Duck, featuring Tuesday Weld — where her character goes sweater shopping and runs through a laundry list of exotic color schemes — we riffed on that idea and made it our own kaleidoscopic palette. This song had it all: sitars, Hammond organ (performed beautifully by Brother Cleve of neo-lounge act Combustible Edison), big beat drums, and some acid house tweaks to make it into a nice retro/future cocktail.

Originally released on Thievery Corporation’s 18th Street Lounge label and now on Ursula 1000’s own Insect Queen Music imprint, this song would be called “Kinda Kinky” — as would the album on which it was featured. Ursula 1000 was able to score world-renowned contemporary artist Shag to design the cover in his distinctive space-age bachelor pad style.

For the 20th anniversary of the release of "Kinda Kinky," Ursula 1000 decided to revisit this classic cut and give it a re-rinse, adding some tasty flavors of today but keeping its original kitschy vibe. For the flip, we have the one and only breakbeat legend A.Skillz transforming “Kinda’ Kinky” into a funky, disco house groove monster. An unadulterated sonic delight!

.
Steve / Fort Knox Five (Fort Knox Recordings) – “Congrats on the anniversary! Seems like just yesterday when we were just foolish young DJs making the scene. Love the repackage and updated mix and the A.Skillz remix is a surprise bonus. Top notch today like it was top notch back in the day! Need this 45 for the collection to be complete.”  
Soul of Man (Finger Lickin’ Records) – “Great release and A.Skillz puts a rocket up it too!”  
Tal M. Klein (Aniligital Music) – “A great remix of one of my favorite Ursula 1000 staples. I like the A.Skillz sendup as well!”  
Quincy Jointz (Timewarp Music Radio Show) – “I like the new mixes of this big classic.”  
Bruno From Ibiza (Ibiza Global Radio) – “Ursula’s remix is amazing.”  
Jon Fugler (XLNT radio show) – “100% smiles guaranteed - sometimes it’s easy to forget dance music should be fun - outstanding remix and with the dubs you are really just spoiling us.”

High Rollaz: https://highrollazrecordings.bandcamp.com/music

On Advent Day 14, we dip into the world of Drum and Bass - particularly of the liquid kind - with a sublime mix from Peterborough-based Nick 'Sincere' Porter. 

A bonafide member of the old skool, Nick has been promoting the music he loves since the late 80s/early 90s with his High Rollaz club night. Fast forward to present times and while his club night remains, High Rollaz has now become the name of his record label and radio show on Future Sounds Radio. The music found in Nick's mix reflects the type that can be heard on his radio show and what you can expect from his label brilliantly and it could easily be one of the best Drum and Bass mixes you've heard in a while. 

Opening with an intro featuring his brother from another mother, Rayan Gee of rave legends Shades of Rhythm, Nick gets the ball rolling with the latest release on High Rollaz - Twilight - and then proceeds to serve up an incredible selection of liquid funk and deeper liquid Drum and Bass. The flow and progression of the mix are a joy to the eardrums and warm your cockles this mix most definitely will.

Nick mentioned to me that there are plenty of forthcoming High Rollaz releases in his mix, so if you're loving what you're hearing, hit the follow buttons on the links below to stay in the loop of when they'll be heading your way.

This is sure to be a dance floor favorite at your local funk and soul party. The b side, “Son Del Barrio” is a latin psych-funk keeper with driving horns and a steady beat.
