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

TRU FUNK: Party Breaks Vol. 10 (2016)
Tru Funk’s breakbeat party mission continues on apace with recent drop –Party Breaks Vol. 10 – a slim n trim five track affair. Dutch crew Bang N Mash start the party by providing a nu-funky breaks platform for Eric B & Rakim’s I Know You Got Soul while Chudy employs Destiny’s Child for So What? – something you might call bugaboo breaks.

TRU FUNK presents MORLACK & DJ AXE: Funk Machines (2013)
It’s a game of two halves from Tru Funk as DJ Axe and Morlack go head-to-head for this six-tracker. Axe rocks a ghetto Funky Jam by popular demand, goes a bit midtempo chill for a Bush Tucker Snack and finally employs a bit of Blowfly when he gets Totally Fried.

DJ AXE vs. STEREO BEATZ: Funk N’ Breaks (BigMD038) (2012)
BigM regular Stereo Beatz has brought along his mate DJ Axe this time for Funk N’ Breaks or more accurately ‘ghetto funk n breaks’. Not that I’m complaining you understand – as the synths on this rock a funky ice cream van vibe that I haven’t heard since Jake Slazenger brought out Supaphunk about fifteen years ago. Slazenger’s was more of an armchair anthem though whereas the big breaks
