The FunkBro Show RadioactiveFM 153: Riso & Brickhouse Funkymix V.7

Here's my remix I did for K+Lab that features Def3. I really love the concept and art work on the "Beasts" album and K+Lab, Def3  and the remixers involved are amazingly talented artists and Beasts in their own right.

Out not on Junkfood!

Stream / Download

K+Lab - Games Ft Def3  (Qdup Remix)

Rory is no stranger to the big beat sound having published 2 books on the subject (The Little Big Beat Book & The Story of Big Beat). Project Happiness is a prime example of his masterful use of huge crunchy drums, righteous bass lines and looping vocals to deliver on the dance floor. Right Place Right time starts with scratchy vinyl guitar loops and wobbly bass but quickly evolves into a booming party starter. Gangsta-ish takes a second look at the same tempo with funky bass, crashing drums and just enough 303 acid and dj scratching to really get the floor going. 90's Flashback sees Rory team up with Countertop hero to create a nostalgic romp into the golden age of breaks and big beat. Finally We throw it across the pond with a remix from LA based friend of the funk, Qdup who ups the tempo a bit to deliver nothing less then an instant breakbeat classic. Punchy drums and robot vocals finds a build that rises to an onslaught of distorted 808's and a sultry female vocals topped with a lead synth worthy of parliament themselves. Together these 4 tracks should not be missed and will find itself at home in any party DJs collection.

DJ | Producer | Soul Provider | Matasuna Records | The FunkBro Show

Retro Roland Riso, has over 25 years of club experience behind the decks, with a true passion for all things funky, filled with soul and truly groovy.

As a toddler, he'd spend countless hours enjoying his parents' eclectic record cabinet; listening to artists such as The Beatles, Sergio Mendes, Sly & The Family Stone, The Turtles, Taj Mahal, even The Osmonds and Bay City Rollers.  Little did his folks realize, Roland snagged a few of those gems over the years to add to his impressive collection.  

While fully immersed in listening to music, he began learning piano at 6 years old, which inevitably launched his love to create and produce.

Once considered the "Hardest Working DJ in Philly", Retro Roland was spinning 5-6 residencies on a weekly basis, including a highly regarded internet radio show, "Sounds of The True School".  During his 4 year run, Mr. Riso's guests included Ursula Rucker, The Last Emperor, Rich Medina and Mpozi Tolbert.

He also ran a successful monthly Jazz and Soul Record Show, which was widely popular amongst record collectors, DJ's and producers, including Cash Money, Jazzy Jeff and Quest Love.

Riso also helped engineer Cozmic Cat's legendary Philadelphia party, "Groove Lounge", which brought musicians, vocalists and DJ's a platform to perform in united, rhythmic harmony, which featured a then unknown, Jill Scott.

As an URB Magazine mixtape runner-up, The Soul Provider has shared the bill with incredible performers, including Afrika Bambaataa, Felix Da Housecat, Dubtribe, King Britt, DJ Craze, Vikter Duplaix, house pioneer Robert Owens and the legendary Barbara Tucker.  He recently opened up for Grammy nominated artist, Flo-Rida.

A number of Retro's remixes are in regular rotation on The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show, featured on BBC Radio 6, with funk 45 releases on Matasuna Records.  Plus, Roland hosts a weekly music broadcast, The FunkBro Show, on RadioActiveFM.

Notorious for working the crowd and rocking the dance floor, Riso maximizes every opportunity to drop a funky "Retro Roland Riso" remix, morphing the room into a sweaty, swanky frenzy!

"Got Some Funk, Bro?

    Passionate about all sorts of Dance and Hard Dance music, Old and New .
