TRU FUNK: Party Breaks Vol. 11 (2017)
Oh hello – it’s the Tru Funk label with Party Breaks Vol. 11 in the second of today’s adventures in party breaks. And there was me thinking the label was ‘on a break’ – possibly permanently – due to being tired and emotional from too much party-breaking. Well – that and the fact that no-one has heard anything from them in over a year. Once again, reports of their demise seem to be bollocks

Now there’s a face-off to conjure with as two of the funkiest ghetto funkers go head-to-head for the sequel to B-Side’s Party Bangers Vol. 1 from last year with Party Bangers Vol. 2.
