MUSTAFA AKBAR: Get Down Wit It

MUSTAFA AKBAR: Get Down Wit ItNappy Riddem vocalist and sometime Fort Knox Five collaborator Mustafa Akbar strikes out on his own shortly with new single Get Down Wit It, inviting all who will join him (a fair few I’d imagine) to engage in a spot of bass-heavy, twenty-first century update of eighties funk. Such is Get Down Wit It which features muted guitars, swirling synths, insistent drums and the kind of horns vamp last seen decorating anything from 1985. The remixes find QDup upping the electronic ante, All Good Funk Alliance turning things in a disco boogie direction with added cowbell and FX, while Deela (a.k.a. Ancient Astronauts’ Kabanjak) goes full afro-futurist. Something for pretty much everyone to get down wit then…
(Out 9 March on Super Hi-Fi Recordings)
