I only knew one name in the tracklist, so didn’t know what it entailed. Very awesome mix of afro/funk/breaks/etc. I looked up and found that the artists range from the 70s to now, and it’s hard to know which is which. It’s great to see new artists carrying on the tradition of solid funk, and very impressive to see your knowledge on display. Solid mix tape!
In the car. Not going to leave any time soon. Classy as hell.
Thanks guys, glad you enjoyed. Had some time on my hands recently, so I have four more lined up: 80’s New Wave, Eclectic Indie/Pop, Soul/Blues, African Funk/Soul.
This is a formidable and impressive mix. The many artists I didn’t know were as good as the few I did.
Thanks a lot 😀
I didn’t use this live version, but the fantastic instrumental part of Track 6 is really well shown in this performance from about 2:10 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWgqngywYt4
Great stuff, especially the first half with the more uptempo instrumental tracks. Didn’t know most of these either and will definitely be investigating further. And Spank – what a tune 🙂
