Apparently May is international ghetto funk/ nufunk/ breaks remix month for here is Badboe‘s heavyweight scene label Breakbeat Paradise with twelve of the best from the BBP library getting a rework. Perhaps unsurprisingly, among those being remixed are some of the remixers. That’ll be Tom Drummond, Jayl Funk and Badboe himself – of course – after all, what kind of man throws a party

CHUDY: See You On The Floor (2013)
The latest from the Tru:Funk label is this drop See You On The Floor from Tru:Funk crew member Chudy. On it he neatly sidesteps the breaks/ ghetto funk cheese trap which is no mean feat given that he delivers four super disco breakin numbers with an eighties and even nineties (Keep The Beat for example) flavour at times. His four tracks come in the company of five remixes from

BADBOE: Pump Up The Funk (album) (2012)
Badboe‘s Pump Up The Funk is number three then – full-length ghetto funk albums of original material this year that is, hot on the heels of big LPs by CMC & Silenta and Featurecast in the autumn. Now, though, it’s the turn of the man who arguably released the first one – back when ‘ghetto funk’ was a term being used by the Guardian to describe Diplo and MIA (no, really) – or at least

BADBOE – Pump Up The Funk EP (2012)
Pump Up The Funk? Steady on Boe – is that wise? Pump up a genre of music already so libidinous it’s named after the stink of sex? Mind you, we’re actually dealing with ghetto funk here – not a form of music renowned for restraint – and so it is that producer Badboe gets out his Danish funk enlarger and proceeds to pump for all he is worth. The Claire G Phunk What You Gonna Do For Me is a

TREMENDO Vol. 2: Various (2012)
Telephunken’s Tremendo express rolls into the station for the second time in a manner much like its predecessor. A whopping eight party breaks? Check. One of his own plus some other established big hitters (Badboe, The Breakbeat Junkie and Rory Hoy) and a few young guns – Morlack, DJ Rudd, Bobby C Sound TV and Wood N Soo? Check. Cover the whole gamut of party breaks sub-genres? Check. Best cuts this time are

GMF feat. AKIL THE MC: Remixed! (2012)
“Do whatever feels good to you. It’s cool/ For you to do whatever you want to just do,” raps former Jurassic 5 member Akil The MC on the original Grand Mother’s Funck version of Do (video below) – with admirable laissez-faire as his and the band’s work is taken off by Badboe and various nu-funky friends. Perhaps surprisingly, the end result isn’t a six-track ‘loud-up the drums, wobble

BADBOE & BASEMENT FREAKS: Bombastic Collabs Jam 01 (2012)
Two of the biggest and most influential names on the party breaks/ ghetto funk scene get together to kick off a new series of hook-ups on the Bombastic Jam label – Bombastic Collabs, as Badboe and Basement Freaks pull a couple of mid-tempo grooves out of their respective bags of beats. And groove really is the word (considering where the ghetto funk sound has been of late) for both tracks

LOVE MUSIC, HATE RACISM & CULT MUSIC present: Funk Against Fascism (2011)
There are many reasons to reject fascism in its many forms – the one-dimensional, ‘might is right’ attitude, the staggering lack of logic in its ideological arguments and crucially – the shit music. Wagner and Skrewdriver? Christ! Enter breakbeat deejay Totalcult who (in collaboration with Love Music, Hate Racism has been marshalling the rebel forces

BADBOE: One Of Those Days EP (2011) + video
Rating: 
Not one to rest on his laurels while habitual crony Prosper is off doing the big beat/ nufunk thing, original nufunker Badboe only decides he’s going to share a massive skankin hip-hop banger with us all in the shape of One Of Those Days – the lead single of his forthcoming second album. Cheers guv – don’t mind if I do. On toasting duties and completely on point is MC Coppa a man I last caught ripping things to shreds on
