Matasuna Records’ first 45 drop of the new year is a double slice of Afro-Latin heat in the form of two Renegades Of Jazz remixes – and if you know Renegades Of Jazz, you know these will be a little bit special. It’s not actually the first time on vinyl, or even on 45, for the A-side – ROJ’s blistering b-boy mix of Brownout by Texan outfit, Brownout. This originally saw light of day on a ltd. ParisDjs

BREAKBEAT PARADISE: Funk Originals (With Remixes) (Digital)
Back in 2017, Breakbeat Paradise Recordings took time out from dropping stuff that sampled funk to release vinyl 12″ Funk Originals instead – four tracks of brand-new, all-original funk from Grand Slam, Grand Mother’s Funck, Nasa Funk and A Man About A Dog. Now, that same collection gets a digital release with remixes of three of the tracks. First up is Beat Le Juice who takes on the

ALDO VANUCCI feat. KYLIE AULDIST: Get A Hold On This + remixes
The latest single to be taken from Aldo Vanucci’s party-bumpin’ second LP, Diggin For A Living, is the Kylie Auldist-featuring, neo-northern soul stomping Get A Hold On This, which comes with a remix package so groovalicious, it might as well be called ‘Get A Hold Of This’. First up are The Allergies who, presumably figuring it would be hard to make things even more stomping, get a

LACK JEMMON feat. KURNEL MC: Joan Jett (Remixes)
Having managed, arguably, to score the best track on Breakbeat Paradise’s recent Bring Back The Funk comp. with their earworm cut Joan Jett featuring Kurnel MC, Hungarian duo now bring back Joan Jett for the remixes. Of which there are six – which means the remix package of just this one track is the same length as – why – the entire EP on which the original appeared! But who got

GROOVE MIND: The Magician/ My Funky Worm – Remixes (2017)
The MustBeat label come heavy and correct with the remixes shortly as they drop a big re-version package of Groove Mind’s The Magician/ My Funky Worm digi-single from back in April. D-Funk is the only artist to tackle The Magician and while most of the original elements of this gnarly wobble breaks cut are retained the whole thing is flipped for a deeper sound. If you liked Groove Mind’s My

THE HEMPOLICS: Me Love To Sing Remixes (2016)
The Hempolics – them love to sing. Well – it’s right there in the title of their lilting skank of a summer hit Me Love To Sing isn’t it? Of course there’s also them that love to remix – Mungo’s Hi-Fi for one, DJ Vadim for another and Loggi for a third. And some of them know other people besides vocalist Dandelion who love to sing – or at least toast – like Solo Banton and Horseman. Yes

MOOQEE & HERBGRINDER: Sound Around Town (Remixes) (2016)
It might not be ‘hot town, summer in the city’ weather at the minute but Lovin Spoonful-sampling breaks oldie Sound Around Town from Moooqee and Herbgrinder gets some remix heat on this package from Funkanomics, Beatvandals and – er – Mooqee who gives things an ‘organ VIP’ editing. Funkanomics bring the sound around where grinding breaksville

DR KING & YT: TV Baby (Remixes) (2015)
I feel like a bit of reggae. Do you feel like a bit of reggae?Although…it’s not very Christmassy is it? Dr King & YT get round the problem of a December release date for summer music on TV Baby by addressing the seasonal pastime of watching hours of utter bollocks on the box – “It no right, fi watch TV from morning to night…you definitely know you need to sort out ya life.” My

NILES PHILIPS: Aggregation (Niles Phillips remixes) (2015)
What about an album of Niles Philips remixes? On the strength of his spanking funky electro blues rework of The Worldstylers Gimme One More last year (yes, don’t worry that’s on here), the correct answer is ‘yes please!’ And so it is that Timewarp Music drop their second big remix LP this year what with this coming, as it does, hard on the heels of The Remix Sessions Vol. 2 from label

THE BIONIC RATS: Dear John Remix EP (2015)
Dublin 2-tone outfit The Bionic Rats find their track Dear John leaving them for multiple partners on this remix EP. Origin One offer the security of something relatively close to the original but a little more minimal, Max Rubadub promises lazy days and hazy nights with his slowed down dub cut, Bobby C TV offers plastic palm tree excitement in the form of 80s-tinged funk and
