Kraak

Greek label, based in Athens and set up by Angelos “Timewarp” Stoumpos in 2009. Kraak is a sub-label of Timewarp Music (est. 2004), and provides a home for any releases that don't quite fall within the parent label's “nu funk, nu disco, nu jazz, dub and breaks” remit – so expect anything from broken beat to deep house to electro. Apart from Timewarp himself, some of Kraak’s key artists include ActRaiser, LegoBoy and The Allegorist, as well as Afternoons In Stereo, AKA Canada's Greg Vickers. Just to avoid any confusion, there is no connection between the Kraak label and similarly named Dutch funk/soul outfit Kraak & Smaak.

Review: Jazz, funk, house, disco, soul, afrobeat, swing, techno and broken rhythms: Vito Lalinga outta Italy does it all in this eight-track swipe at Kraak records. Bringing sweet Spanish guitar to numbers like "Khartum" or some undeniable jazz-funk to "Murder In Casablanca", you'll find a heavier riff and rhythm tracks in "In The Jungle". With a subtle touch of dub added to the walking bassline of "Sax Street", filter house without the filter makes it into "Scream & Shout" next to something overtly electronic and '90s lounge style in "Traveling At Night". Sweet broken beat numbers in "Suspense Time" too. Check it out!

Review: 2021 may have started as 2020 ended - I.E in a frighteningly dystopian manner - but Kraak Records regular Voodoo Child is in as cheery and positive form as ever, musically speaking at least. The producer's latest EP is breezy and attractive, offering a range of tracks that draw influence from both house and nu-disco. Check first the rolling riffs, sustained chords, ear-pleasing synthesizer flourishes and warehouse-ready house beats of 'Dub Me High', before backtracking to revel in the shimmering electronics and funk-fuelled nu-disco grooves of opener 'Transient Access'. Elsewhere, he reaches for bold synth stabs, bustling Afro-house beats and drowsy chords on '2 The Bone', while '2 Trumpets & A Beat' is a warm, woozy and undeniably huggable slab of nu-disco drowsiness.

Review: Following his impressive debut on Metronomic a couple of years back, DJ Mas Corazon makes his debut appearance on Greek label Kraak Records with the balearic nu-disco vibes of "Love Construction" and its gorgeous vocal throughout. Second offering "A Better Day" sees the New York City-based producer head poolside for more sun in the fun, on this low slung boogie-funk number that'll have you dancing well after sunset.

Review: Based in Suffolk, ActRaiser goes by Rob Sayles in real life, and until quite recently he was best known for a string of liquid funk releases on labels such as Fokuz, Celsius and Influenza Media. His fourth album, however, finds him back in the downtempo/chill-out territory where he started out - his 2011 debut album came out on Cold Busted. 'Short Stories' may be sitting in our Broken Beat/Nu-Jazz pages but you won't find too many 7/13 time signatures or pointless flute noodles here - instead think dreamy, soulful instrumental vibes from the Balearic side of the street. It's a little 'polite' in places, maybe, but easy on the ear all the same.

Review: De Riguer is the current alter ego of veteran chillout guy Mike Reger. This Brooklynite has been recording under various names since beginning in Washington back in the '90s. Here he delivers five delicious slices of cool pie, highlights of which include the hazy '60s jazz-out of "A Break For Monday", the shuffling, dreamy, vocodered funk of "Give It To Me Niceup" and the eccentric Afro/bleep/dub hybrid "Dubbleys 10 Steps To Redubbery".

Review: Greek label Kraak is fast becoming a label to watch. Its blends of electrofunk, nu-disco, funk and deep house are rarely less than enjoyable. There's certainly much to admire about this three-track release from longtime friend of the label Alessando Oritz (aside from the title, which is a little bit naff). Opener "Everywhere I Go" sets the tone, layering sublime P-funk synths over a chunky, saxophone sporting nu-funk groove - all heavy bass and swinging house beats. "I Got Your Back" moves further towards deep disco house territory, making great use of live instrumentation and some extra-soulful vocal samples. Finally, Stefan L lends a hand of the jaunty, disco-house saxophone wig-out "Make Me Feel".
