From Mop Mop's "Ritual of the Savage" album (which I highly recommend) So High is just one of those joyful bubbling tracks that grabs you by the bits and makes you get a wiggle on.

Ron Burgandy aint got nothing on Bobbi

Bobbi Humphrey with "Harlem River Drive" taken from her 1973 album "Blacks and Blues". A Blue Note classic. Just go listen.

Spanky Wilson

Didn't really need to think of a title for this post cos the lady has the best name in the music industry like ever...
Yet that can't overshadow the funked up awesomeness of this classic from her and the Quantic Soul Orchestra.

Don't Joke With a Hungry Man

 

Spanky Wilson's been laying down jazzy vocals since the 60s and as her work with Quantic demonstrates, she's totally still got it. If I recall correctly this track was first recorded for Quantic's "Mishaps Happening" album, but it also features on "I'm Thankful" where they collaborated with Spanky for a whole album. Both of which are well worth looking in to.

Almost lost in time

I knew absolutely bugger all about Little Ann until the other day. I stumbled across this classy track and decided to find out a bit more... Turns out she recorded an album in the 60s, but it was never released and the tape reels were just left on a shelf somewhere. Then in the 90s the tapes were discovered by accident, people were like OMFG and BOOM! Onto the Northern Soul scene she goes.

Possession


I believe this is probably her most well known tune.

Sunday lovely

I'm in love with Featurecast, the man can do no wrong. Will be linking a load of his tracks and mixes, but we'll kick it off with the one that's shagging my soul right now.

Get lovely

Nirvana cover = sex music

Stay Away
Covering a Nirvana track is always going to court controversy and to be honest most I've heard failed to do anything worthwhile. This tune however has such a filthy, dirty, beat to it that even before you factor in Charles Bradley's mindfuckingly sexual vocals, this tune is already licking your eardrums and dry humping your leg.

Filthier than a crack whore's knickers this.

Everyday brings a new funked up tune

Funked up... in my head can mean many things, so this place might be a bit eclectic. From tunes with something meaningful about them, to dirty grooves and classic breakbeat sexiness, across to tunes that just make your arse wiggle. I'll be aiming at posting up at least one musical eargasm per day.

Kicking it off with some Scroobius Pip vs Dan Le Sac. Where hip hop takes a step back to trying to make folks think.

Get Better
Truth, simple as.

 Proper love song this and the video is classy. Don't know what you've got till it's gone.
