± FUNK , DISCO & SOUL 2023 PART II

GOOD TIMES / PROBLEMZ

PROBLEMZ

Drop Out Orchestra has been one of the key acts in the Nu Disco scene over the last decade plus. They've collaborated with other pillars in modern electronic disco/funk music, such as Jkriv & Opolopo, and return now with two more strong entries for the dance floor, "Skate" & "Good Fun," both in collaboration with vocalist Mishell Ivon, who is quickly becoming a mainstay for the Sleepers label.

The vibe here definitely takes some cues from the sophisticated disco funk of seminal groups like Chic, only the sound has been transformed and streamlined into something that's ready for the dance floors of 2023. Mishell Ivon's commanding vocal presence leaves you with little choice but to enjoy yourself, whether at the club or the roller rink.

As always, Sleepers brings these two tracks to you in physical form, via color vinyl 7", limited to only 150 copies!

Skate:

Mishell Ivon & Drop Out Orchestra bring you "Skate," an uptempo dance floor filler that may remind you of the sophisticated disco funk of seminal groups like Chic, only the sound has been transformed and streamlined into something that's ready for the dance floors of 2023. Mishell Ivon's commanding vocal presence leaves you with little choice but to enjoy yourself, and to find the location of the nearest roller rink.

Good Fun:

Mishell Ivon & Drop Out Orchestra bring you "Good Fun," a dance floor-ready Nu Disco anthem that may remind you of the sophisticated disco funk of seminal groups like Chic, only transformed and streamlined into the sound of the modern day. Mishell Ivon's commanding vocal presence leaves you with little choice but to make your way to the nearest dance floor!

FKX148 - Another Decade of Funk (2013-2023)
Out Worldwide on Friday September 29th, 2023
Available Here:   https://orcd.co/decadefunk


in 2003 Steve Raskin, Rob Myers, Jon Horvath, and Sid Barcelona formed Fort Knox Five in Washington, D.C. as a project to explore all things funky, regardless of genre or tempo. From the beginning, the vibe was retro, the sound was funk, and the beats were fresh. 20 years into it and FK5 are still going strong!

Another Decade of Funk continues the musical journey started on 10 years of Fort Knox Five released in 2013. That compilation showcased the origins and evolution of the Fort Knox sound and created the foundation for the decade that followed.

The story of the second decade kicks off with Fort Knox Five’s sophomore studio album,
Pressurize The Cabin. This collection features some choice gems from that release including the boom bap party anthem "Reach”, featuring Flex Mathews.  Mustafa Akbar drops the funk on “Whatcha Gonna Do” and “Keep it Poppin” while legendary British trombonist and soul crooner Ashley Slater brings the heat on “Fire in my Belly.” (Available here as a radio edit for the first time)

After a chance meeting with Sir Joe Quarterman, one of D.C.’s legendary singers from the 70’s, the group cooked up the floor burner “Don’t Go”, which captures the vibe of D.C.’s classic funk era. “Give it a Minute” pushes the hometown influence into the future with its Go-Go meets 808 jeep beats topped by the bouncing crisp flow of Bcap. 

In 2017 Steve relocated to British Columbia and some incredible collaborations followed starting with the modern funk-meets-glitch hop banger “Jinglin’ Janglin’” with K+Lab, featuring vocals by hip hop royalty Baby Bam (Jungle Brothers). The “DC to BC” series grew, teaming up with Slynk on “Keep the Funk Real”, and with Lazy Syrup Orchestra on “Start the Ride”, both exploring some west coast mid tempo vibes. 

Alongside these future forward collaborations, the classic FK5 sound can be heard loud and clear on “Playing with Fire” featuring Emily Molloy as well as the funky instrumental groover “McGuires Audio Shop.” 

The 11 tracks on Another Decade of Funk celebrate the funky flavors that Fort Knox Five have been creating over the last decade, and see the continued evolution of the group taking the FK sound straight into the future. 

Fort Knox Recordings thrives as a melting pot of genres, where Funk, Breaks, House, Downtempo, Trip-Hop, and more find their rightful home. Stay tuned for brand new remixes celebrating the 20th Anniversary followed by Another Decade of FK5 Remixed featuring remixes from Stickybuds, Krafty Kuts, Megan Hamilton, and more!

Disco Funk Edits Vol​.​1 EP
Label - Ritmo Terco
Released - 1st December 2023
BUY FROM - https://ritmoterco.bandcamp.com/album/disco-funk-edits-vol-1

“Disco Funk Edits Vol 1” is our third edit series with the label, this time we wanted to pay tribute to the roots of electronic dance music.
We asked our favorite artists JONAHLO, JOINT4NINE, RUSH CITY and NICO FATCAT to select carefully one of their most influential Disco-Funk tracks of all time and make an edit more suitable for the dance floor.

The second edit is a very rare disco funk called “Soft Touch” (1983) from legendary Jamaican producer Ernest Ranglin. Rush City decided to turn the track into an acid disco journey by playing with the parts, adding percussion sounds and turning the bass into a more hypnotic 303 electro acid house line.
