Review: Two further mixes of Stex's Lipps Inc-sampling "Boogiebomb", following on from Young NRG's recent release of this funky breaks heater. The punningly-titled "Funk In Town" mix classily mixes that famous bassline with frantic vocal loops from the original, keeping you firmly rooted and hyped the whole way. There's also an edit which squashes all of the thrills into a much shorter amount of time for trigger-happy DJs.

Review: Blending disco and thumping breakbeat for this new release on Young NRG, Stex's "Boogiebomb" has a trace of Lipps Inc's "Funky Town" running through its veins, as well as plenty of pumping synth work and some chunky drums mixed in too. His Breakfunk mix goes for a more light touch, while the Funkybreak DJ edit opts for more trancey leads shadowing that familiar and much-loved bassline.

Review: New from funky-breaks honcho Stex comes this fun and fresh journey through a clutch of samples, bubbly synths and old-school drum machines. This new mix (entitled the Old Skool Funky mix) drops snippets of b-boy classics ("The Grunt", "The Funky Drummer" etc) over a Prosac-happy soundbed of filtered funk and sub-punishing synthlines. Stex doesn't let it get boring for a second and uses his supreme cut 'n' paste skills to liven up every second.

Review: Putting a fresh spin on jazz from the 1930s, Dasya and Stex from Young NRG have a blast on this latest single, "Everybody Baby", which provides a radical excursion into the more chaotic and hectic end of electro-swing. Adding layers of sub-punching bass, dirty driving kicks and smash 'n' grab drum samples, the pair loop up the playful sampled trumpets and throw in the odd vocal refrain whilst retaining the scattergun fun.

Review: A highly original collaboration between Dasya and Stex on Young NRG, featuring a fascinating cover of The Rolling Stones' "Miss You" done via swooping Eastern strings and slow jazz beats. Elsewhere, there's the hectic IDM of "Baby Of Boss" which recalls 4Hero in their prime, the breaks/house hybrid of "Push The Funk", and even the chilled out string stabs scattered through the languid "Chill & Dub" mix of "Venice" to really get stuck into. A varied yet very accomplished collection.

Review: Pooling a wide range of producers from Italy, Columbia, Britain, America and beyond, Young NRG have put together the third volume of their breakbeat bulletin in style. There's a real mix of styles on offer; the funky side of breaks gets covered with some big tunes from Feline Phonic, who aren't afraid to get their samples out and rock the "Funky Drummer" beat on "Reborn". On a more militant tip however, House De La Funk's "No Way" is a masterclass of spooked, hardcore synths, while Original Source's "Spool" is classic mangled and twisted breaks magic that DJs will go ape for.
