I absolutely love the vocals in BudNubac’s I’m Going to Follow. It’s sultry latin-loungey rhumba at its finest. I don’t really like the breakdown that happens 4.5 mins-in as the track begins the fade-out, but other than that it’s amazing. I love retro lounge stuff like this. BudNubac (aka Robin Taylor-Firth – Nightmares on Wax, Olive, Subma Chena), Rawle Bruce (Subma Chena), Sara Garvey (Nightmares on Wax), Shovell (M-People), and many others all appear to lend a helping hand to the project. Find more wonderful music from them here.

Alright so a friend of mine came across what she depicted as ‘Electric Swing’. Whatever it is, it’s fucking mint.
The problem is (and I must admit it is a pretty big problem), and that is we have no idea who is behind any of this. These tracks are a rip off a ‘chain’ CD that somehow was passed through the reigns until it landed onto us. Plus, it’s a burnt copy with no CD information and I don’t have an iphone with handy gadgets that tell me how the universe goes ’round, or more specifically, tell me who is behind these next few tracks. So I digress from my rant and apologize if you want to know more! As do I.
Hopefully one of you out there reading this can take a listen and instantly tell me who this is. I even recognize a couple samples within (or think I do), not sure if they’re originals or what and it’s killllllling me! I am amazed at your talentedness. Talentedness… it’ll catch.
Below you will find a few samples from the album.
♫ MP3: ‘Parov Stelar – Catgroove’ *****
♫ MP3: ‘Mr. Scruff – Get A Move On’
♫ MP3: ‘G-Swing feat. Le Major Melon – La Voix Humaine’
♫ MP3: ‘De-Phazz – The Mambo Craze’
Please tell me the artist name, album name, or track titles if you know them! I would love to fill in the blanks.

Eddie C (shown on the right) brings us some rare funk vibes today. I can’t get enough of Hold On right now, but what initially caught my eye was the delicious track You’re Welcome. The Canadian West-Coast native generally mixes experimental funk beats. If you’re like me and love these, then follow up here for more beats.

Henrik Schwarz changes things up on here with a lil funky jazz edit to Bill Withers Who Is He. This track is dirty. If you like real chillin’ rhythm and laid-back vocals or something new with a funk-dub twist, then look no further. Schwarz is here and hails from Germany. He regular dips into the house/jazz scene, so if you like this there’s more available at his myspace including a list of upcoming shows you should definitely hit. I just stumbled across him this past week so this song below is the first track that hooked me. It’s great. I hope you enjoy it.
