May the funk join hands with a jazzy fly trap and merge to form hip-shakin’ madness that is undeniable. This jam means serious business, and the Round Table Knights are officially on our must-listen radar now. We’ve got this on continuous rotation, as it’s vibe invites the listener to transport to a place that is a vast improvement from the present. Read more
Absolutely brilliant vocals complemented with a funky, nu:disco rhythm that just grooves, GrooVes, gRoOvEs ever so perfectly! Moullinex seems to have identified a sound recently that we simply love, specifically pointing to his original mix of ‘Sunflare’. This is beautiful music for the cooling breeze of Autumn weather welcoming us with open arms, uniting dancers of the night as one. Read more
Displaying the same Latin influences as ‘Chiuso’, but given a serious acid twist, this new cut from production duo Laidback Luke and Gina Turner looks set to further establish them as a force to be reckoned with. The rolling groove and pounding drums work in perfect tandem while live percussion keeps things interesting along the way.

Hell yeah! This EP is full of funky, and more importantly, fun dance music. Rockin’ on all fronts, rising star Le Zebra’s production skills are tightening, and this package doesn’t disappoint. There isn’t one track that could be considered the weakest link – although if we had to choose the brightest star of the bunch, we’d roll with ‘Stay With Me’. We’re a sucka’ for that vocal… Read more
Strong EP package originally authored from brand new artist Alec Carlsson pumpin’ his brand of filtered, funky energy – including a remix line up to die for! The Geisha Twins serve up a strong blitz of filtered, intense funk with a touch of electro for good measure. The Clancy re-edit provides a spaced out, dreamy reinterpretation full of progressive, uplifting goodness. Then enter the stage, the heavy weight contender for the funk – The Phantom’s Revenge – hitting us off with OUR pick of the package with a level of attention for detail that just won’t quit. We guarantee the fists will be pumpin’! Read more
Absolutely massive – music that makes you feel young, free, and alive! We’re breakin’, poppin’, lockin’, and straining muscles left and right as we jam out this. Chris Lake’s recent adjustment to aim his radar at the FUNK is a welcome and refreshing injection into the genre. Partnering with the Nightriders and Nelski was a wicked decision. Anthem alert!!

Wow. The quality meter is exceeding maximum thresholds. This is quite simply, flat out good house music. The Magician leverages the vocal talents Jeppe and has created a wonderful, timeless classic soon to be released on Kitsune Music. One of the best projects we’ve heard this year, and check out the free download after the jump of the Plastic Plates remix of the track! Read more
Remember the original back in 2003? If you don’t, we’ve kindly shared the original masterpiece, along with the bangin’ new TPR remix! Both intense compositions, let’s bring funky house back to what it once sounded like. Filtered funk and intensity tensely layered together with the unforgettable vocal calling all soldiers of the night to unite and dance as one. Let’s get it onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! Read more
FHMDC is tipping it’s hat to LLR – ‘The Wall’ – funky deepness that just won’t quit!
LLR is back! It’s been nearly two years since the hugely successful ‘Super Soaker EP’
was released to the world. With plays from Armand Van Helden, Breakbot & Wolfgang Gartner to name but a few, it was the EP to rocket LLR into success.2011 sees the return of LLR with his debut album ‘Hello You’. This is the first single, a double A-side. ‘Gimme Gimme’ is a Disco House stomper with a retro feel but a modern touch. Think Duck Sauce Meets Daft Punk. ‘The Wall’ is a synth-ridden melodic monster. A pop record full of energy, with a catchy vocal hook. On remix duties are Shook and J Paul Getto!

One of our favorite artists at the moment – Russ Chimes – hits us off with a very fresh remix of Teeth, invoking the powerful vocal with the underpinnings of a deep, funky house vibe. Proper vibes and smiles surround this atmospheric masterpiece, culminating after the 2nd breakdown with a mind-numbing vocal sample that does nothing more than dominate gyrating bodies. Proper house music! Read more
The remixes have arrived adding strength to an already powerful package, keeping the infectious vocal intact while adding two brand spankin’ reinterpretations. James Talk & Ridney launch this jam into outer-orbit with their classic main room, prime-time approach including an epic breakdown and trance-like stabs creating a driving, funky monster. The Siege Vocal mix takes a very groovy approach, and will satisfy those who aren’t easily pleased with anthem treatments. Read more
Party, pArTy, ParTY music to the max – this is end of the night, monkey-like antics fueled with acrobatic break dancers, random make-out sessions, and fist-pumping galore! You know the feeling at the end of a good night, where there is no where else you’d rather be at that moment…Fare Soldi does it again! Read more
Summer may be ending soon, but that doesn’t mean breezy, positive vibes have to leave with it. Moullinex is in good spirits with this lovely vocal house remix of Kamp! with stunning results. We’re strongly supporting this new releasing courtesy of Discotexas, and will keep this on heavy rotation for months to come. Read more
We’re quite sure this remix is absolute fire, and absolutely hope His Majesty Andre will release a gift to his fan-based audience. Shame, shame, shame on the A&R team that slept on this gem… Read more
Funky guitar licks meet intoxicating indie vocals with an Alex Metric wrapper of pure energy! This is a funkin’ CHOON and a half ready for dancefloor devistation – wicked signing by Mr. Fatboy Slim’s label Southern Fried. In our humble opinion, this is one of the most innovative offerings from electronic dance music that we have heard all summer. Engage children of the night, and allow yourself to drown in this bliss!
