FAB SAMPERI - 'Power Bossa'

Agogo Records - LC 15656

'Power Bossa' is the introduction to Fab Samperi's definition of a boombastic jazz style. Fearlessly and creatively picking up inspiration from the golden decades of classic rhythm & blues, latin, hip-hop and soul Sicily's most prolific producer releases his first full album:
'Power Bossa' and what a powerful statement it really is. Fab Samperi recorded the album in as many as six countries. While kicking off with 'In The River', playlisted on the BBC and sealed by Craig Charles featuring the man Samperi himself on flute (yes, he is a well-studied multi-instrumentalist playing keyboards, drums, guitars and brass!) the mighty John Turrell from Newcastle England puts his distinctive northern soul voice on 'Everyman'. Samperi's close connection to Smoove & Turrell is no coincidence. With their organic approach to the music they love this is a natural connection. Bella Wagner from Vienna, vocalist on 'Stand Back', already recorded with Patrick Pulsinger and Bahama Soul Club. Jonnathan Molina on the other hand is a new face on the block. His voice for 'Listen Up' keeps the fire burning with an authentic soul twist.
'Red Bossa' is a liaison with Mattew Rasbash aka Spasmo, an English producer with an incredible knowledge of cinematic jazz, dramatic bossa and obscure jazz-rock. Holding the pace but adding a breathless rap flavour to 'Brand New Day' Joelistics aka Joel Ma of the Australian TZU crew takes us back to the age when hip-hop was what it all was about: lyrical vitality, an open mind and pure energy. The instrumental version of 'Alcoholic Drinks' is a trip way back into Fab Samperi's history, but it still sounds fresh today. It blends nicely into 'Jazz Di Mezzaluna', an authentic piece of Mediterranean Jazz featuring a solo by Andrea Beneventano, one of the national top players on the piano. Rounding up this jazz intermezzo on 'Power Bossa' is 'Spaghetti Samba', Samperi's early single on Record Kicks featuring the vocals of Igor Gazatti aka Zion from Recife in Brazil. Soul brother John Turrell makes his return on 'Heaven Sent', again this was recorded with Smoove at his Ashbrooke Castle studios in downtown Newcastle.
'BB Funk' kicks in with a haunting bass line courtesy of the man Fab Samperi himself: 'People think there is a lot of sampling in my music, but it is not. This bassline, for example, was played and written completely by myself.' And while Samperi is not only an expert musician himself, he is also busy remixing tunes for other artists. The French freakbeat of 'Papillonne Sur Moi' is an example of his recent output, commissioned by fellow Italians Montefiori Cocktail & In-Grid.
Closing the album Samperi reunites with Andrew Donikian aka Diamond Poet and revives the Outbound era with 'When I Wake Up.' The music may have evolved since then, but the message in Fab Samperi's music has not: 'The message behind it is that I believe in a multicultural world, where people can live their lives in peace, with no racism, and no war.' This statement is as simple as it is true: Peace, love, unity and having bossa!

Mash & Munkee "The Good Vibe (Renegades Of Jazz Remix)"

Beatnik City rolls it’s sleeves up, slowly dips it’s strong hands in a bowl of resin, then a bowl of haribo tangtastics, turns towards us and beckons us on for battle…but wait! Beatnik City is a lover, not a fighter! And this is Northern Beats Volume 2, which means only sunshine funshine and hijinks will ensue

Turns out the resin and haribo were for Aldo Vanucci’s vajazzle, who knew Hiphoppapotamus and Shimi Sonic owned their own sparkly sweets beauty parlour? DJ Ozyboy was in earlier for back sack and Caramac, Leygo is in room one having his Brazilian nuts, Badboe is in room two having a candy necklace - we’re pretty sure that is definitely porn. Superfort is early for his dirty herbert sherbet dib dab and Daytoner is in the toilet having a Curly Wurly, we’d best leave him to it. F-Block is having his hair set a fantastic candy floss pink and Retro the Robot is just smashing everything up with a giant rubber mallet, he’s been hitting the space dust quite hard and is likely expecting everything to explode into skittles.

Willy Wonka would most definitely approve of this kind of behaviour, taste the rainbow!

Mr Bird - Skate Dancer (Bird's Skateliscious Mix)

Mash & Munkee are Kolja Starkowski (aka Deli-Kutt) and David Hanke (aka Unifairfly/Renegades of Jazz) and are based in Wuppertal and near Hamburg, Germany. Kolja was DJing and David was running a radio show before they met online at the record database site Discogs and, after discovering a common taste in music, teamed up to form Mash & Munkee. The rest, as they say, is history!

After a series of well-received singles on labels such as Backslide, Jack To Phono, Funk Weapon and of course Hero Records they spent time compiling and remastering the best of these releases and writing new tracks to compliment them and ended up with this amazing debut album. Taking musical influences from all over the world this album contains the straight up funk of the single “Superbad” and the scratch-filled b-boy grooves of “Here We Come!” together with afrobeat and latin influenced groovers such as “Kibo” and “Venga Veras”. From downtempo hip hop head-nodders like “Mexican B-Boy” to the faster tempos of the dancefloor-filling nu-funk of “Make A Difference” this album encompasses all that we at Hero Records love about music. Available as a very limited CD with collectable 6-panel digifile sleeve and digital download this album is destined to be a smash hit with lovers of everything funky.

An album chock full of feelgood summer vibes and happy grooves. What more can we say …….. WE LIKE IT LIKE THAT!

Late Night Workshop - Guru4eva - OUT NOW

Many moons back I mixed music upon my 1's and 2's regularly and I loved it! then kids appeared in my life and this past time slipped from my grasp (too knackered to stay up late).
Now the world has sent us all to our rooms to think about what we have done, so I dusted of the turntables and cracked my arthritic fingers and tried to throw a few pieces of shindiggery together for your ears to enjoy..... Maybe this will be the start of joining my old DJ partner Matt of Fajita Funk behind the Dj desk or ill just have a cuppa tea and nice biscuit and stay in?

The duo of DJ Moneyshot and Rackabeat have been delighting dance-floors and lighting up the radio airwaves since forming The Allergies and releasing their debut album in 2016.

Year in, year out, they’ve sharpened their skills on the turntables and in the studio, dropping one dynamite record after another. Clocking up ‘Album of The Day’ gongs, national ad campaign spots, and Radio 6 Music A-list status, the pair show no sign of stopping the fun.

After consecutive top 40 albums, the boys just dropped number seven, FREAK THE SPEAKER. And it’s another stellar showcase for their feel-good funk, soul sampling savvy, and party-starting hip-hop. 

This year they’ll be taking to stages, tents, fields, and cities, supporting the album with their ‘full-band’ live show. But, if you want to catch them in their element, check Moneyshot and Rackabeat cutting up the wax, too, as they take their DJ show to clubs and festivals, far and wide. From Space in Ibiza, to Glastonbury festival, they’ve shook stages and rocked spots.

So, if you like crazy turntable skills, hands-in-the-air beats, all mixed up with some classy crowd rocking music, then an Allergies double-decking DJ set will be right up your street. 

“The Allergies music is big, bouncy and fat! Just how I like my funk” – Craig Charles, BBC Radio 6 Music
