Happily, there’s not been such a long gap between Mako & Mr Bristow releases this time as they deliver Stank Soul Edits Vol. 5 a mere six months after the sold-out and subsequently re-pressed Stank Soul Edits Vol 4. For the new 45, the pair present you with A-side, Funky Diggin,’ which re-imagines a little known soul-rocker from a certain bunch of stoned soul picnickers as a mightily funky dancefloor-friendly diggers’ anthem. Meanwhile, the AA-side, Dynamic B-Boy, re-grooves a psych-soul warning about ‘the man’ with the heavyweight funky boom and funky bap drums it always deserved but never had. As usual, it’s all done sensitively so you can slot this pair in among your old funk 45s without them leaping out as obvious edits.

Not sure – BBP vinyl releases often get a digi. drop but it can be up to a year afterwards…Sorry – don’t know any more than that 🙁
