Review: If you're feeling the weight of world on your shoulders right now- and given the volume of bad news about, most of us are - then we'd highly recommend giving this new single from Ache Baez a spin. Warm, heady and rich in cute musical touches (jazzy electric guitar motifs, rubbery bass guitar, manipulated female vocal samples and pudding-rich Rhodes flourishes), title track 'Funk The World' is a fine fusion of deep house nous and Balearic-flavoured nu-disco sass. The Mexican producer continues in a similar tip on 'Fana Village', where snappy MPC house beats come laden with reverb-laden, early morning vocal samples, more ear-catching electric piano riffs and swirling string samples. Listen on repeat and you might just forget - for a few minutes at least - about global pandemics and local lockdowns.
