Last show of the year, and as tradition dictates it’s another episode to look back over the year but this time doing something a little bit different. Aswad sits down with Walla P (Voyage Funktastique/Prime Source), as they host an end of year review. Together they talk and share their favourite records covering LPs, 12", 7" and reissues. As you can expect there was a lot talk about, so expect plenty of music covered from the rich sounds of modern funk through to the classic signature grooves of British Jazz Funk.

Norman Connors turned 73 this month so what what better way to pay respect to the master than a mix of some of his best works?

From spiritual jazz to the soaring disco, expect some incredible music from across the board showcasing Norman Connor's many talents. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it.

As well as his solo efforts the mix includes music he's produced for Aquarian Dream, Phyllis Hyman, Al Johnson, Starship Orchestra and Jean Carn

A Tribute To Norman Connors (NTS Guest Mix)

FMO Funk is a weekly mix series hosted by @Kirollus celebrating the sound of boogie and 80's funk.

We're very pleased to have Austin, Texas born and raised DJ & producer Danbone for this week's show. Dan is best known for his work with the modern funk label Austin Boogie Crew (ABC) and more recently  as founder of Funky Crates, a platform that hosts live vinyl sets from different DJs around the globe.

Danbone runs Austin’s edition of the @austinboogiecrew's night, 'The Boogie' with fellow members Chicken George and Chorizo Funk and alongside modern funk & boogie he incorporates jazz fusion, Brazilian jazz, reggae and even some Library/AOR sounds into his mixes. His appreciation for jazz funk is very evident here with plenty of early 80's fusion as well as fresh new releases from 2020.

Forty Minutes of Funk is a weekly mix series hosted by @Kirollus celebrating the sound of boogie and 80's funk. Follow @fmofunk for more of your weekly funk mixes 🔥

For this week we're proud to introduce San Francisco based selector Mr. Big Happy of Parrish Council crew who I just had to invite after having my mind blown every day on IG thanks to his daily post series series showcasing 100 records from his collection which just came to an end last week. @bighappy has hand picked a few rare cuts, mostly on 45 from his personal collection to curate a 40 minute set of all b-side instrumentals and we're so excited to share it with you! 

“No matter how busy I get I make sure to slice out some time each day to do the necessary fieldwork on tracking down records. In the record collecting culture sharing rare music helps unearth forgotten gems that would otherwise stay forgotten. I feel a responsibility as someone who loves and appreciates the music I find to spread the love and to help reintroduce the artist to future generations.”
