Review: What a vibrant collection we have here from the team over at Big Fat Mama Beats, as they assemble their team to deliver a sizzling box of breakbeat remixes, under the 'Big Fat Remixes' title. Opening up, Mr Bristow arrives with the colourful horn flutters and metallic bass stabs of 'Body Roll', which kicks us off in a groovy zone, followed by the almost ska-like drum licks and glittering guitar scats of 'I Want Your Soul' from PulpFusion. From here, Sir-Vere delivers a spacey backdrop of blippy basslines and euphoric horn toots on 'Beneath My Skin', next to Nathan Green, who turns up the pace for the unpredictable percussive switch ups of 'Breakout', before One Dead Jedi arrives for a fiery finale. 'Alas Poor Poochie' sends us on a journey of unique sonic design and nostalgic chord driven build ups, rounding off the project with a dash of the unique for good measure.

Review: It's difficult to envisage a Breakbeat Paradise drop that doesn't feature a serious tonne of quality, with this latest collection of 13 powerful creations making up the 'Boots Of Paradise' collection. The project takes a very central theme of reigniting hip hop vocals with dancefloor-ready reworks, from the classic Biggie sampling of Crash Party's 'The Juice' to the old school slicing of 'Ice Cream' from LROY and Aliens In Denmark's 'Chatty Tramp'. Even with this pretty solid central theme, the project has a lot of variation involved, from the sharpened drum punches and modernized synth slides of 'Brick Bounce' by Towlie DJ, to the more 4x4 influenced grooves of Morlack's 'Fall In Love With Me'. Our standout highlight for the whole drop would have to be Pecoe's 'Champion', which balances crunchy drums with well designed vocal sampling, which also makes it a perfect final entry.

Review: As always with Breakbeat Paradise, they have brought some serious heat to his one as we enter the 5th edition of the Stank Soul Edits series, featuring Mako & Mr Bristow. We begin with the rock & roll waves of 'Funky Diggin', which through a combination of lofi-vocal arrangements and groovy percussive inputs, delivers a flavoursome breakbeat design. Next to this, we are introduced to the horn-like harmonies and thunderous bassline bounces of 'Dynamic B-Boy' which when topped with it's nostalgic vocal line, gives us a fantastic festival closer, crescendoing left, right and centre with some colourful melodic twists. Both tracks represent a fabulous middle point between old school sampling and new school arrangement, delivering the goods in style.

Review: As always with Big Fat Mama Beats, they have come to put on a show with this latest addition to their 'Funk Bananas' compilation series, which enters its fourth edition with a dash of finesse. The combination of psychedelic melodies and groovy drum designs that lie at the heart of every track are what give the project a fantastic level of cohesion, as in the uplifting horn toots and lively vocals of Pecoe's 'Funky Individual'. The whole project hosts a pretty professional vibe, with the likes of Sir-Vere, The Funk Philosopher, Sonale, The Criminal Minds and more all making wavy additions. Our favourites from the project have to include the monstrous bass pulsations and techy arpeggios of B.U.U.G's 'Dancin Time', next to the Chubby Robots rework of 'Space Time' from Adrenalinez and Wiccatron's lively percussive masterclass in 'Funk Dribble.

Stupid EPEXCLUSIVE
Review: It's time to drive ourselves into a new wave of breakbeat and funk-inspired goodness, as we here welcome Mr Bristow and Benny Silver across four potent originals, courtesy of the Funk Blasters imprint. We kick off with the inspired lyricism and booming drum slaps of 'Should Have Said', followed by the warbling bass tonality of 'Good Morning' and more melodic vocal expressions of 'Prove Richard Wrong'. Finally, 'Stupid' rounds the project off in style with a more laid back compositional approach.

Tom Showtime - "Spaces & Places" (feat Gift Of Gab, Lotek & Ash.One - Double Down mix) - (4:10) 142 BPM
Review: So the team at Breakbeat Paradise are back to their old tricks again, proving just why they are so highly praised for their consistency here on JunoDownload. This latest project sees Tom Showtime join forces with a number of other producers for an intricate remix project, seeing a selection of fifteen potent reworks land in the store. The genre styles range for stripped back hip hop beats to more funky rethinks, giving a real mix and blend of styles. For us, the Tom Showtime remix of 'Bang Like This' from Ben & Lex alongside The Pharcyde summarizes everything this release is about, that being smooth, vibrant beats and warm, colourful basslines!

Review: The guys at Big Fat Mama Beats have pulled out all the stocks available on this one as they ready up and unveil a mammoth compilation, pulling together twenty absolutely monstrous recordings from across the breakbeat spectrum. There's something for everyone on this one, be it the more old school funk driven drum work on 'Dissin U' from StuC4C, the more rock driven guitar riffs of 'Old Tape' from Adrenalinez, or the super futuristic synthesis on the Chubby Robots rework of 'So Good', originally from The Placenta, featuring Wiccatron. This is definitely one we would recommend getting stuck into on a long play!

Review: As you can imagine, Breakbeat Paradise Recordings specializes in the sort of house music that's carried by chunky blockade of beats and bass, all rounded off by a distinctive electro swing. This is the second chapter of the Big Fat Mama Beats series and, once again, the imprint have gone to extreme measures to secure a supremely effective line-up for both them and us. There's not a dull moment in here, or anything remotely beatless, so be sure to cop yourself this super-charged, super floor-minded collection of new-school breaks for the masses.

Review: Big city slicker Mr B shows love to the murky metropolises of the world with a firing rap-licked booty foursome. As always, party-minded Bristow ain't pulling punches: "City Love" gives Jermaine Dupri a sprinkle of MOR magic while Kool G leads a head-bending fusion of Jones and Havens on "Back To My Roots" and "Stand By Its On" takes Rob Base on a hearty Midwest rock trip. Finally "Lunar Tune" pulls a massive moony with Joplin, big breaks and some classic party MC mischief. Serious city breaks.

Electric Bongo DiscoEXCLUSIVE
Played by: The Allergies, Mr Bristow, Mako & Mr Bristow, Badboe, Jayl Funk, Johnnypluse, Juno Recommends Breakbeat, Funky Boogie Brothers, Funk Fusion
Review: Famed for their Stank Soul Edits vinyl series, Mako & Mr Bristo return on Funk Blasters with the mightily titled, Electric Bongo Disco. The name captures the vibes on here pretty well - four vintage cuts loved for their breaks gently souped up for modern dance floors. Opener is "Sugar Hill Bongos", which lovingly updates a Sugarhill Gang classic. Elsewhere "Hype Fresh Mine" is poppy disco meets hip house, "Refried Beans" is a sweet vintage B-boy gem and "Electric Ruffneck" really goes there, sampling Edie Grant and somehow making it actually sound cool! Now that's talent.

Resense 042: Stank Soul Edits Vol 2EXCLUSIVE
Review: The second of two big break edit releases from Resense: World champion monkey boxer Mako and decorated turntablist Mr Bristow get real with two more funk obscurities. "Breaks All Tight" struts with a classic Motown feeling and a vocal power that's not dissimilar to Lee Fields. "Mama's Little Breakbeat" keeps it real with a swinging twist on Kris Peterson's "Mama's Little Baby". Both absolutely tickle the dance. Vinyl only, too.

Review: The first of two big edit releases from Resense: Titanic Bristol funk from the infrequent partnership of Monkey Boxing's Mako and serial editor Mr Bristow: "King Soul-omon's Mine" takes a cover of heavily-sampled, well-known Lee Dorsey/Allen Toussaint gem and adds a subtle contemporary swing. Flip for a full band breakdown over a pristine break as "Sock It Silly" strips down the science of every funk tune ever. Vinyl-only; this one's a keeper.

Review: Let's hope Mr Bristow and Phil Ramocon have a designated driver; they're seriously intoxicated right about now. Oozing boozy style, Bristow's bass whips back and forth with the midrange electro sound that's similar to Featurecast while Ramocon gets his Edwin on with some really gutsy vocal business. Remix-wise B-Side adds a bit more oomph to the low end, J Sound switches up the smoothness with tinges of disco, DJ Clairvo injects some really nice sound steel string guitars and cosmic reverse effects while Jazz K Lipa closes the show on a future moombah flex. In short, there's enough toxicity here for us all to get drunk.

Review: Drunk on heavy Craig Charles support, Bristol chain-funkers Mako & Bristow get mucky on Breakbeat Paradise with four more floor firecrackers. "Twist & Shout" fuses various versions of the classic rock n' roll song over a snippy breakbeat tempo, "Funky Jive" is a schooling in Bo Diddly business while "If Stax Ain't A Reason" takes us on a way trip to Memphis and finally "Funk Am Im No Good" flips Winehouse into the funkiest homosapien on the planet. Ridiculously funky.

Review: If you're into beats and basslines then the Breakbeat Paradise label is the stuff of dreams. While many labels try to branch out into different styles and often lose their identities on the way, these guys deal solely in raucous breaks for the big room dances. While they usually release compilations by single artists, the imprint launched the first volume of the newly crowned Funk Bananas series. Coming through with a vast collection of new artists and familiar faces, these cuts are guaranteed to jump-start your Saturday evenings. Electrogorilla, Rory Hoy and many others dish out party bombshells in an old-school flavour. A mighty fine collection, indeed!

Review: For a label that only launched this spring, four volumes of creatively executed party jams is beyond impressive. We reckon this could be Funk Fusion's best yet, too. From Rhythm Scholar's respectfully tripped out twist on "Lucy In The Sky" to Fabioulous Barker's slap-bass blazed take on Skeelow via the funkiest ever version of 2Pac's "California Love", it's an impressive collection that leans towards the more subtle art of editing rather than crass bootleg cut-and-shuts and will have a lot more timeless appeal as a result.

Mr Bristow feat Benny Silver
Played by: Mr Bristow, Juno Recommends Breakbeat, Breakbeat Paradise Recordings, Relative Dimensions
Review: Unique party flavours abound as Bristow and Silver reconnect from their "My Life" EP earlier this year. The pair complement each other well, with Bristow's crafty sample snatching and Silver's slick-tongue UK rhyme vibes an ideal match as the two dig deeper and deeper into the party spirit. From the swing-time jazz horns of "You Don't Know" to the Benny's philosophical positivity on "Don't Take It Serious" via the title track's instant shindig shout-out, the pair conjure a unique spirit between them. Imagine if Ugly Duckling were founded in Peckham and you're not far off. Lively vibes.

Review: If you like your funk and breakbeats a little dirtier, than Funk Fusion have the grease to grind those gears. Terry Wagun drops a wobbly, saw-wave bassline over a choral of Lily Allen vocals in the opening track, while Mr Bristow slugs out some dirty low-end similar to Mr Oizo's "Analog Worms Attack" in his addition. For a crunchy, slowed down, stoners version of Pharrell's "Happy" there's 2RUD's "Happy Ska" - and don't forget Dave Gerrad's mashup of Queen and Kurtis Blow's "The Breaks" in his Funkadelic "Kurtis Breaks". Some bass-heavy 808 beats like Felix Da Housecat's "Kickdrum" rumble under a pair of titan hip hop vocals in "Turn Down For Hip Hop" thanks to Lil Jon and Fatman Scoop samples which spit over the top of Major Lazer synths. Get fused.

Review: Breakbeat Paradise Recordings certainly live up to their names with this second edition of Bring Back The Funk. Opening proceedings is Funktomas with a stuttering big room mega wobble edit of "Let Me Clear My Throat", while J Sound's is "On & ON" is R&B-poppy with phat licks of bass included. Phibes provides something that's on a EDM tip, while Conte Crux is in a hip hop sampling kind of mood. Ad'N'Kuts delivers some sleazy pop, breaks and nu-funk, leaving Mr Bristow to complete this package with a downtempo but groovy as hell "Raise Yo Hands".

Mr Bristow feat Benny Silver
Played by: Clairvo (MustBeat), Mr Bristow, Roast Beatz, Badboe, Actual Sounds, Dusty Tonez, Tom Showtime, DJ Maars, Crashgroove
Review: When mash-up DJ extraordinaire Mr Bristow conquered his native St Albans in fine style, he embarked on a 15 year journey that has seen him win awards left right and centre whilst DJing all over the shop and even teaching the next generation of DJs in his Hoxton HQ. Here he delivers a cheeky hip-hop ditty, laden with vintage brass stabs and featuring the autobiographical raps of Benny Silver. Think a very British Fresh Prince and you're there. Best of the remixes is Roast Beatz that ups the funk factor to 11. House party gold.
