Yet another 45 on the way and this time it’s double funky action from the Jalapeno Records camp with a Basement Freaks and Kylie Auldist collab. on the one hand and a Basement Freaks remix of a John Turrell cut on t’other. The first cut sees Mr Freaks simplify the squelchy jangling JB’s-style beat of two year old album number White Hot from his Time Machine LP into something more minimal and stomping. And of course the vocals of Bamboos and sometime Cookin On 3 Burners singer Auldist continue to enthrall. The second finds the funky, folksy soul of John Turrell’s Kingmaker LP track Won’t Get Fooled Again wrenched into a different shape entirely. Don’t be fooled by the late night smoky jazz intro though, for immediately that’s over, it’s all about the farty-bassed electro funk. This release’s mix of White Hot will also be available in digital format on the forthcoming Jalapeno Funk Vol. 10 due next month.
