Badass Funk EP
EXCLUSIVE
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
Breakbeat Paradise is very good at satisfying our funky needs, never failing to come through with some blissful, sample-heavy party bangers for all walks of life. It's a mixed bag, as per usual, and this will surely appeal to DJs with wider sound palettes, from the hip-hop heads to the disco junkies. Coming across almost like edits, the sounds of peeps like B Side and DJ Maars manage to incorporate so many elements of dance music into single arrangements, and these tunes are surely what is needed to get the dancefloor going; whether it's your bag or not, you won't be able to resist their funky touch.

Bad (Remixes)
Punks
Left, Right and Jacq's recent escapades for the Punks stable have gone down rather well, leading them to have what is surely their most iconic tune to be remixed and rewired for this latest episode. The original of "Bad" is in here, still giving off that dreamy glow of intricate drums and sultry vocals, but Worthy takes no time in twisting the original into a stretched-out piece of hybrid house with added levels of bass; Born Dirty is no less gnarly thanks to an injection of off-kilter cowbells and minimalistic harmonies, whereas Stranger utterly reframes the formula to produce a fuzzy cloud of low frequencies from the depths of the inferno.

Hype
EXCLUSIVE
Hot Cakes Bass
This summer anthem has been bringing the hype across the dancefloor for the last few months... Rejoice! We can now get our mitts on this badboy. Brimming with the bouncing bassline energy that is so synonymous with their homeland the West Midlands, 'Hype' mixes a fun, classic 4/4 with dark, mutated metalic synths and old school spitting that Viper would be proud of.

BadboE
Break The Funk Remixed
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
A ridiculously fun remix package of Danish breakbeat guru Badboe. For the uninitiated, Badboe has developed a style that has clear echoes of 60s and 70s funk yet still fits seamlessly into the modern musical landscape. This man has dipped his toe in almost any genre you care to name - from house to trance; hardcore to trip-hop. On Break The Funk we see his superlative breakbeat jams remixed by the genre's cognoscenti, with the insouciant Fuzzbox Inc remix of "Lose Your Funky Self" and the junkyard percussion on the Pulp Fusion reshape of "Funky Intro" among the many highlights on offer here.
Badboe
Pump Up The Funk
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
Boe "Badboe" Pedersen has always been one of he more reliable sources of floor friendly, funk-laden breaks jams. While his style sticks to the tried-and-tested, there's a quality present that's often lacking in similar breakbeat productions. Pump Up The Funk, his second full length, has plenty of dancefloor chops. It features a range of cuts created using snappy rhythms, familiar hip-hop samples (Missy Elliot and Redman are both notable inclusions) and fat funk grooves. There's a casual swing and groove to the material that's endearing, too - something that can't be said about many of his competitors' creations. If breakbeat is your bag, this comes highly recommended.

BBP Remixed
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
Flip the switch and get with the program: evergreen party purveyors Breakbeat Paradise have commissioned a whole bunch of reversions and each one is an instant booty-buster. Highlights abound throughout this raucous bass-bizzled nu-funk adventure but only a twit wouldn't pack Badboe's rub of Kool Hertz En Vouge sampling sizzle-up "Whatta Joint", JiggyJoe's orchestral disco-strung halfstepper rub of Calagad 13's "Back To The Power" or Badboe's take on Rudd's Supremes-slicing "Shake It Out". Paradise found.

Bring Back The Funk Vol 2
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings certainly live up to their names with this second edition of Bring Back The Funk. Opening proceedings is Funktomas with a stuttering big room mega wobble edit of "Let Me Clear My Throat", while J Sound's is "On & ON" is R&B-poppy with phat licks of bass included. Phibes provides something that's on a EDM tip, while Conte Crux is in a hip hop sampling kind of mood. Ad'N'Kuts delivers some sleazy pop, breaks and nu-funk, leaving Mr Bristow to complete this package with a downtempo but groovy as hell "Raise Yo Hands".

Paradise Breaks Vol IV
Breakbeat Paradise Recordings
Although the cover of this latest instalment in the Paradise Breaks series echoes the famously trippy sleeves of '70s prog rockers like Yes, the music couldn't be more modern. Actually that said, many of the productions on here do plunder the '70s for inspiration but they choose funk over wizard's capes and that. Highlights include the mighty "Bad Mother" which combines raw soul divas vocals, wah-wah guitars and thumping break beats, J-Sounds' tight and groovy break-funk jam "On And On" and the super catchy shuffle-pop gem "Nobody Else" by Arteo. A totally mixed bag and all the better for it.
