For Promotional Use Only? Yes, it’s just The Breakbeat Junkie vs DJP’s little joke as they return to the party breaks scene after a lengthy period AWOL with a no-messin’ trio of disco-tinged mashups. Currently digital-only (but don’t be surprised if a ltd. 7″ or – who knows – even the traditional disco 12″ eventually manifests itself), the release finds our heroes begin proceedings by

THE BREAKBEAT JUNKIE vs DJP : For Promotional Use Only
SOUL FLIP EDITS 5: Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag / Knock On Wood (DJP Soul Flip edits)
Yes, you read that right – Soul Flip Edits 5 coming out after Soul Flip 6 (don’t ask!) and it’s guest producer time again as the label welcomes a man who possesses no small measure of vision when it comes to funky beats – DJP. It’ll be the glasses. And damn if he doesn’t see his way to making the Godfather of Soul’s Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag seem like it’s got – well – a brand new bag. And

THE BREAKBEAT JUNKIE VS DJP: Hit Me With The Horns
The Bank Holiday arrival of new party breakbeat single Hit Me With The Horns can only mean one thing. That’s right – it’s time to welcome back a certain TBJ and DJP – or The Breakbeat Junkie vs DJP as they style themselves – as if their horns were continually locked over production issues. And despite going around the horn, as it were, by

BREAKBEAT PARADISE RECORDINGS: Badass Funk EP (2016)
Rating: 
Blimey. Hold the floor. When a label like Breakbeat Paradise celebrates ten years in the business you know you can expect some heavyweight party breaks action and with a name like Badass Funk EP – you know that shit is going to be stanker than JB’s jock strap. Don’t be expecting any wobble though because part of this one’s charm is that in celebrating a label

SCOUR RECORDS: Scoured Cream Vol. 5 (2015)
It’s time to get creamy again boys and girls. Why? Because Vol.5 of Scoured Cream, the ongoing series of wobbly, glitchy breakbeat butterphat from Scour Records is imminent! As usual there’s plenty of buzzsaw bass-synth antics and indeed the Bear Twists/ Father Funk/ Phibes/ WBBL opening quartet is business as usual in this regard. Where things start to get interesting for the

SECOND HAND AUDIO feat. AKIL THE MC: Set It Off (GFD05)(2013)
Rating: Now then – if the people want dope rapping over dirty great funk beats – why fart around with samples and old acapellas? It’s a vast gap in the market and Second Hand Audio (a.k.a DJP and The Breakbeat Junkie) are in there like swimwear. Here they follow-up previous collabo,Got It Like That, with Ugly Duckling’s Dizzy Dustin by co-opting the services of another West Coast boom

THE BREAKBEAT JUNKIE & DJP: Represent The Style (2013)
The Breakbeat Junkie and DJP hook up again, this time on BBP, to release Represent The Style and the style they seem to be representing is cocaine-dusted mirrorball nights. The title track finds the pair of them re-working Lil Kim in a Paradise Garage stylee, then DJP has a louche disco tango with Princess Superstar before the Breakbeat Junkie uses 4EverFresh sample, “We created rap

SECOND HAND AUDIO feat. DIZZY DUSTIN: Got It Like That (GFD03) (2013)
Rating:
There was only one logical step for the ghetto funk/ breaks scene when the well of old school and underground hip hop rapapellas started drying up. Get some original vocals of course. There’s been barely a handful of those in the last few years but you can expect a lot more from now on as the necessity of finding something suitable (and unrinsed)
