Step To The Rhythm
Step To The Rhythm - (4:04) 110 BPM
Review: Sub-Line soldier Adam Ellis dons his Hipsta beard and shakes his whiskers in a Beastie fashion. Dicing and splicing the NYC trio's classic "Hey Ladies" to perfection over some obese breaks, he's created a seriously sweet funk groove with a slinky synth bassline and plenty of horns to boot. Step up!

Welcome To Eccentric City
MassEvil - "The Dark Advocator" - (3:55) 53 BPM Hot
MassEvil - "Booty Shake" - (3:39) 58 BPM
Buffo's Wake - "Drunk Girls" (MassEvil remix) - (4:36) 57 BPM
Review: Welcome to Eccentric City: Population - YOU! Brighton beat conjurer Massevil delivers his debut EP and it's a one-way ticket to party heaven. "The Dark Advocator" is a sludgy slew of bass textures and subtle vocal elements while "Booty Shake" lives up to its name with butt-shifting low end growls and a soaring detuned synth line that builds and builds with gradual drama. Finally we hit a skank-savvy version of "Drunk Girls". Surefire ruckus material with a deadly drop, it's an intoxicating experience from the off.

The Grinding Dust: Remixes
Grinding Dust (Datadex remix) - (4:06)
Grinding Dust (Rage King remix) - (5:11) 129 BPM
Grinding Dust (DJ MalFunkShun remix) - (4:17) 126 BPM Hot
Review: Radical Mixtape present three winning remixes from their recent Crashgroove re-rub contest and it's abundantly clear why each of these cuts won pole position. Datadex goes in deep with some futuristic slo-mo glitch fusion, Rage King sprinkles a mild spell of euphoria over a dramatic flurry of industrial breakbeats while DJ MalFunkShun twists full emphasis on the original's horns by way of classic electro beats and icy pads. Everyone's a winner - especially you when you drop these!

Get Up On Ya Feet Remixed
Get Up On Ya Feet (DJ Maars remix) - (3:41)
Get Up On Ya Feet (Phibes remix) - (3:27) Hot
Watch This (Crashgroove remix - bonus track) - (3:51)
Review: Remix time! Now a standard jam among the nu-funk fraternity, "Get Up On Ya Feet" gets two highly respectful reversions in time for the festival season. DJ Maars tempers down the vibe with a ghostly skank and steady stomp that surges with raw command. Phibes, meanwhile, refocuses the funk by way of a sopping wet bass tone and short, sharp vocal shots. Both kill it, bringing the original into exciting new territories. For added remix pressure Radical Mixtape have also recruited Cashgroove for a masterfully dark slow-jungle twist on "Watch This". Ensuring the very well-known old skool vocal sample (Leviticus - "Burial") is brought to the fore, his stuttering drums and rich bass textures press all the right buttons.

Radical Mixtape Party Bangers Volume 7
Swingin' Riot - (4:08) Hot
Upside Down - (4:39)
Outdoor Funk - (4:02) 131 BPM
Review: We love it when artists have the courtesy to do our job for us. Here Japetto has very kindly summarised the contents of this fine EP in the title. Actually that's not strictly true - Japetto is actually following the likes of X-Ray Ted and Shaka Loves You in Radical Mixtapes' acclaimed series of 'feature EPs' -Party Bangers. He's turned in some stellar work too - "Swingin' Riot" hails from the cooler end of the electro-swing spectrum, "Upside Down" sees Diana Ross go all hip house and "Outdoor Funk" sees Wilson Pickett given extra oomph in the drum department. Splendid stuff.

Double Trouble EP
Lebrosk - "Bring The Boom Back!" - (4:32) Hot
Delimentary - "Hip Hop A Be Bop" - (6:02) 120 BPM
Review: Big booty business from two of south England's most promising nu-funkateers: London's Lebrosk gets his backpack on with some classic horn-blasting hip-hop fusion that doesn't sounds dissimilar to Ugly Duckling. Party vibes guaranteed. Delimentary, meanwhile, opts for a darker sound. Throwing a well-known Jungle Brothers vocal down over a bolshy bulbous bass and dramatic strings, it's an instant crowd pleaser.

Get Up On Ya Feet EP
Get Up On Ya Feet - (3:27) Hot
Watch This - (3:47)
Review: Sometimes a record's title simply nails the vibe contained within. Bournemouth's Cockney Nutjob's failsafe formula of mixing hip-hop samples with funky breakbeats hasn't failed yet. Here "Get On Up Ya Feet" is a rousing House Of Pain-style jam with a little Rasta magic sprinkled on top. Meanwhile "Watch This" is all about an electro-funk stomp with hand-in-the-air chant samples. Boom!

Radical Mixtape Party Bangers Volume 6 Shaka Loves You
Bounce - (3:36)
Get Up & Dance - (4:12)
Got The Feeling' - (3:27)
I Wanna Be On You - (4:42) 131 BPM Hot
Review: Hailing from Glasgow, where their scorching, party-hearty blend of funk, soul, hip-hop, breaks and D&B goes down a storm, Shaka Loves you are a trio of ski and snowboard instructors-turned-DJs and producers. Here, they flex their party-rocking skills with a quartet of tried-and-tested bootleg mash-ups for the Radical Mixtape crew. There's plenty of gargantuan, speaker-shaking fodder on display, from the rave pianos, heavyweight breaks and electro bass of "Get Up & Dance", to the hip-hop-to-jungle hip-hop soul madness of standout cut "I Wanna Be On You". "Got The Feeling", with its' A Skillz-esque swing, and the chunkier "Bounce", are also predictably fun (and funky).

All Night Long - (4:59) 146 BPM
The Two - (2:43)
Don't Stop - (3:58) 120 BPM Hot
Sliceman & X-Ray Ted - "Let's Groove" - (4:36) 124 BPM
Review: Four explosive bootlegs from Bristol badman X-Ray Ted (or X-Ray Edward as he's known on his birth certificate). First up is a low-tempo swagger jack rendition of Mary Jane Girls "All Night Long". The heavenly vocal remains intact while mid-range bass worms and wriggles amid the beats. "The Two" flips us up the tempo while D.O.C's Dre-produced "It's Funky Enough" gets a savage nu-funk turbo charge. "Don't Stop" sees Usher, Lil Jon and Ludacris's "Yeah" get a Michael Jackson-level revamp while "Let's Groove" revisits Earth Wind & Fire with gusto. Each one guarantees serious floorplay.

Liar EP
Liar EPEXCLUSIVE
Liar - (4:08) Hot
Ya Game Is Tight - (5:03)
Review: Taking the classic B.I.G and Busta jam "Flava In Ya Ear" and laying it over a heavy funk organ riff and tried and tested big beat breakbeats, Cockney Nutjob has excelled himself on "Liar". Ticking every box from ghetto to groovy, it's an instant pleaser, and comes complete with cool machine gun noises. "Ya Game Is Tight" is equally ace. Taking Cam'Ron's breakthrough sexy jam "Hey Ma" and smothering it in worm-like bass and cheeky horn motifs, your floor will be 300 per cent steamier when you drop this. Guaranteed.

Don't Touch My Heart (MustBeat Crew rmix) - (4:12)
Don't Touch My Heart (DELimentary remix) - (5:01) 146 BPM
Review: Originally released as part of his Party Bangers EP earlier this year, Sammy Senior's pant-flaying swing-hop joint gets the full remix treatment just in time for the summer. The B-Side adds a more aggressive wasp-like bass saw wave to proceedings, Defunk takes the original down a much jazzier, slinkier glitch funk path, MustBeat chew up the stems and spit them back out with a much trippier arrangement with a whole host of razor-sharp edits while DELimentary completes the set with a special dedication to the original's storming horns and some emphatically squidgy bass wobbles. One solid party track; five wholly different visions.

Ragga Bangers Volume 1
Bump De Funk - (4:41)
Express Your Ragga Self - (4:28) Hot
Crazy Ina Boom Boom - (5:24)
Review: Aussie nu-funker Yum Cha delivers a no-nonsense EP and the title says it all. Each of this trio bangs with party hardy spirit and features myriad turbo-toasted ragga vocals. Perfectly timed for the summer (and beyond), highlights include the cameo role of M.O.P on "Crazy Ina Boom Boom", some clever use of a James Brown sample of "Dump De Funk" and the cool combo of Cutty Ranks and Beats International on "Crazy Ina Boom Boom".

The Double Hit EP
Hit It - (5:08)
Hit Me - (4:27) 120 BPM Hot
Review: A very clever couplet of booties from Bournemouth breaker Nutjob here; "Hit It" takes a classic hip-hop bass sample from The Franklinz and dresses it in one of Biggie's finest. With a few more surprises thrown in midway, it's nu funk at its slinkiest. Boost the tempo? Look no further than "Hit Me", a bubbling caldron of samples and shockers, including samples from a disco funk rendition of Magnum P.I. Hit Nutjob up today!

Party Bangers Volume 4
Don't Touch My Heart (feat MC Rayna) - (3:33)
Another Gangster Hit - (5:06)
Midnight Hour - (4:32) Hot
Long December - (3:57) 149 BPM
Review: Nu-funk junior Senior delivers four cheeky party-bites, each one packing a flavoursome punch. "Don't Touch My Heart" spies on the 20s swing vibe through a futuristic telescope with MC Rayna adding a refreshing sense of authenticity. "Another Gangster Hit" meanwhile takes funk from both the 60s and 80s and mixes it up with a generous dollop of Cypress Hill. "Midnight Hour" takes Wilson Pickett's finest and gives it glitch-faster stripes while Counting Crows receive what must be their first nu-funking on the warped sludge pop jam "Long December".

Modern Past EP
Modern Past - (5:14) 174 BPM Hot
Across The Pond - (6:04) 174 BPM
Review: JFB comes storming at us on the Radical Mixtape imprint with these couple of belters. Getting things off to a cracking start is title track "Modern Past" with its warping synths, chiming SFX and gritty drum work, all the while a murmuring, irksome bassline glowering below. It's compelling stuff that will attract fans from across the bass music spectrum. Continuing on, and we have "Across The Pond" with its purposeful, striding beats and upbeat aesthetic it's full of hands in the air potential and will be a killer in the dance. A great effort here from JFB.

Lets Dance (Omegaman dubstrumental mix) - (4:06)
Review: Everybody give it up for Fuzzbox Inc! Not only are they creating utterly funky party vibes, but they're doing their best to change the negative connotations bunkers have. Be it golf or the battlefield, bunkers are not cool places to be... Until now! Driving the vibe with a 'brap' style vocal (possibly from George Kranz) the Fuzzies lay down a strict 4/4, a wukka-wukka guitar riff and breezy synths, this is one bunker you'll want to be seen in. Elsewhere we find "Lets Dance", a late night deeper house joint that tips a nod to the distinctive sound of 2020. Want something stupendously funky? Head straight to Jayl Funk's remix for an intoxicating P-funk fix.

Flat Glitch (Free Track) - (4:22) Hot
Get In Some Shit - (3:24)
Strictly Rub-A-Dub-A - (4:08) 131 BPM
Review: With a name like "Party Bangers Vol 2" there should be no surprises here and lo and behold, this does exactly what it says on the tin with two banging party starters and a free track to boot from the immense Yum Cha. Kicking off with the freebie and "Flat Glitch" is yep, you've guessed it full of glitchy SFX with bubbling bass and an infectious groove, coupled with hip hop vocal that will have you moving and shaking within a matter of seconds. Next and it's "Get In Some Shit" which is full of synth distortions and buckets of burping beats as well as a cool, urban swagger. Last but not least and "Strictly Rub-A-Dub-A" takes things on an old skool jungle with rolling breaks, reggae lyrics and a fast-paced, action-packed twist.
