Not for the first time, Dusty Donuts confound the competition by announcing two sureshot 45s simultaneously, a double whammy in which Weapons Of Choice Vol. 2 functions as the opening salvo. Yes, that will be a battle tool and what a battle tool at that – generated (as it is) by the combined talents of Marc Hype, DJs Goce and Robert Smith and Naughty NMX. Hot damn –

DUSTY DONUTS: Weapons of Choice Vol.2 feat. MARC HYPE, DJ ROBERT SMITH, NAUGHTY NMX & DJ GOCE (Vinyl 7″)
BOMBSTRIKES: Funk N’ Beats Vol. 7 – MARC HYPE
At the eleventh hour, (or more accurately, in the twelfth month) Bombstrikes make sure there’s still time to start the commotion before 2019 is out with the release of Funk N Beats Vol. 7. You could be forgiven if you had become anxious that the year might pass with no new instalment at all, especially given that last year saw no fewer than three volumes of the now six year old Funk N

DUSTY DONUTS 16: Just A Touch Of Faith (NMX & MARC HYPE Daisy Mix) / Bonita In My Life (DOC FLEX & NMX Big Booty Mix)
Rating: 
If it seems like a while since the last Dusty Donut, that’s because DD15 came out all the way back in November ’18. But have some faith – Just A Touch Of Faith, in fact – as the German crew return with not one but two new donuts to celebrate the fifth anniversary of their label at the start of October. The A-side of Dusty Donuts 16 finds NMX and Marc Hype creating

DUSTY DONUTS 14: The Love Ride (JIM DUNLOOP reflip)/ Diamond Girl (MARC HYPE & NAUGHTY NMX Summer Breeze Edit) (Vinyl 7″)
There’s always been a ladies’ night element to Dusty Donuts edits because Marc Hype’s crew of sly dogs know what makes for a sexy dancefloor and they’re at it again. Well, you would wouldn’t you? Enter Dusty Donuts 14 which provides ladies’ night thrills with sprinkles on. First up is Jim Dunloop’s reflip of Masta Ace Incorporated’s rnb-tinged lowrider bump the I.N.C. Ride which gets

SOUL DYNAMITE 45: Wah Wah Wah (MARC HYPE & JIM DUNLOOP) / Bulgarianized (HUCKSPIN & MONOPHONIC)(Vinyl 7″)
Rating: Boo! and, indeed, yakka! – as new label Soul Dynamite 45s release what is effectively a double A-side 7″ featuring funky breaks cuts from two world-class production teams: Marc Hype & Jim Dunloop’s Wah Wah Wah and Huckspin & Monophonic’s Bulgarianized. Nothing so conventional or mundane as a mere A and AA denotation for Soul Dynamite though – they’re

DUSTY DONUTS 13: Flamboyant Move b/w I Don’t Understand Love (MARC HYPE & NAUGHTY NMX)(Vinyl 7″)
2018 seems to have brought with it an influx of musical goodies and here’s another. That’ll be Dusty Donuts 13 then which – while an unlucky number for some – is likely to prove lucky indeed for djs, for both sides are lady-catnip. On the A, Marc Hype and Naughty NMX make the Flamboyant Move of re-flipping James Gilstrap’s much-sampled seventies disco slowie Move Me

DUSTY DONUTS 10: Funky Thang (MARC HYPE & NAUGHTY NMX Underground edit)/ 90% Hangin Out (JIM SHARP edit)(2017) + Dusty Donuts 10 Anthology Mix
Marc Hype’s gang are straight back at it for the new year with Dusty Donuts 10 – cannily catering to both b-boy and ‘ladies’ night’ dancefloor appetites. The former is amply sustained by the Donuts crew’s stock-in-trade of mashing up originals and tracks that sample them – in this case by chucking James Brown’s vocal off My

DUSTY DONUTS 7: The Get Down (MARC HYPE & NAUGHTY NMX rework)/ Hyped Up Ants (NAUGHTY NMX rerub) (2016)
Funk and hip-hop vinyl fiend Marc Hype has been cranking up the deep phat fryer again for Dusty Donuts 7 with the aid of guest chef Naughty NMX for a double helping of JB edits. The A-side collab. The Get Down reworks The Boss by employing nicely rolling organic drums, boosting the bottom end and taking the bridge to – er – the bridge by virtue of a few bars of Clyde Stubblefield’s most

DUSTY DONUTS 6: Weapons Of Choice Vol. 1 ft MARC HYPE & JIM SHARP (2015)
Dusty Donuts switch things up for the next drop with heavy battle weaponry on one side from Marc Hype and two edits (and a musical history lesson) on the flip from Jim Sharp. That’ll be as many dj ready vocal snippets and shout-outs as you can fit onto one side of a 45 on the A-side (clue: it’s quite a few) plus Make A Livin Break (re)constructed from the two key sample
