New four-track EP Beat Treats is a case in point opening with the uptempo Champion Sound on which our man applies a few vocal dancehall stylings over a chunky groove consisting of clean wah-wah guitar, a crunchy drum break and a farty bass line

PECOE: For The Funk EP
Eight releases into his career as a BBP artist and Oz producer Pecoe is still giving it up For The Funk on his new EP. Things kick off with the title track, a synth-bass powered beast featuring a female shout-out motif, followed by Make A Miracle which cannibalises both The Jackson Sisters and MC Duke over a pounding breakbeat and Eye Of The Tiger-style guitar.

PECOE: It’s My Beat EP
It’s My Beat is the new EP from Pecoe, the title track of which does indeed see Pecoe providing his own beat (with nods to The Ohio Players) for an ancient Sweet Tee & Jazzy Joyce number. Having established a decidedly funky vibe, our man continues in this manner on What’s Going Down putting Shanell in touch with her inner seventies. Next To You maintains things in the same vein

PECOE: Funk Anthems EP
If you’ve caught any of Pecoe’s previous material, the news that he’s got a new EP out on BBP called Funk Anthems will be cause for celebration. Possibly not coincidentally, the material on this one is reminiscent of circa 2009 LP Break The Funk by label owner Badboe himself – to wit, party breakbeat tunes comprised of funky grooves and a plethora of vocal samples with wobble-free

PECOE: Funk Nuggets
Not had enough funky breaks today yet eh? Alright, let’s try you with a bit of Pecoe – the Perth-based beat-prospector whose recent discovery of a seam of funky ore has culminated in the appearance of five chunky Funk Nuggets. The title track, for example, contains elements (thank you, I’m here all week) of pulsating, pitch-bending 80s funk and appears to be flecked with particles

Lookout – here’s the latest instalment from Breakbeat Paradise who ensure summer breaks parties are well supplied with – well – funky shizzle to quote the Snoop Dogg-referencing title of Pecoe’s Funky Shizzle EP.

PECOE: Full Tilt EP (2017)
There’s no end-of-the-year slacking from Oz party-breaks merchant Pecoe who delivers decidedly summery four-tracker the Full Tilt EP to warm-up your life before shit gets really cold. As with his Dance Sucka bump on the summer’s Big Fat Mama Beats Vol. 2 from BBP, he’s clearly got the requisite old school party breaks credentials but isn’t completely trying to deny that he’s living in 2017
