I just can’t seem to get the sweet sweet sounds of UK FUNKY/DANCEHALL out of my head and ears over the past month. Lucky for me this sound seems to be blowing up everywhere these days. I thought I would post a few of my favorites for your enjoyment.
SHYSTIE:
01 Pull It (ill Blu Funky Mix)
STICKY:
11 Look Pon Me (feat. Natalie Storm)
14 Jack it Up ft. Marvin Brown (mixed clip sorry)
SEKTA:
dance your pants off….
So Jon “FX” Crawford produces a track called “Thunderball Riddim” then says damn this beat is sick, I am going to get all the hottest dancehall MC’s to spit on it. The results are unreal and this complation has been on repeat on my itunes for weeks. Not bad considering it’s all the same beat HAHAHA. Here are 2 samples, but go get the album it doesn’t disappoint: Thunder Ball Riddim
i did not know that. im glad i do now. i think.
This album has been on heavy rotation in my office this week, it’s so freaking hot and I love the lyrics. It’s awesome in these depressing times to hear some uplifting songs.

here are some totally different sounds that have inspired me over the last week.
Mochipet is like the new kid kola with an edge. plus who doesn’t love a guy that always wears a purple dino costume. check out the chris de luca remix of his hit get your whistle wet.

The vocoder is really making a huge come back which is welcome by me outside of t-pain 
I really enjoy what demarco has been doing… check him out:
its your boy… Sinden!
Sinden will be playing the modern in Vancouver this Monday and the hi fi club in Calgary on Tuesday (with lorne b and guests). Not a show to miss!
All his music is a click away… but here are my picks for jocking it sideways on the dancefloor.
A-Trak – Say Whoa (Sinden remix)
¶åΩðä šΓª¶ - amen parade 57min
new mix from the day before last. a random walk through rinsed out jungle, break core, ghettotech and tongue in cheek techno. sorry no playlist
