First things first, out February 12th on CD and double vinyl, 'Praise Poems Volume 3'. This delightful series of horizontal rare grooves continues to amaze. Purely authentic 1970s handpicked deep & soulful tunes.

Released last october, this collection is the result of some obsessive diggin' of funky gems released on seven inch vinyl. Party DJs should deffo keep up with this series, the ratio of monster dancefloor tunes if rather high and the selection really tight.

If the first volume was a seduction weapon, this follow-up from september 2015 was a bomb. Irresistibly tasty deepness from start to finish.

Fantastic 1970s jazz, perfect for sipping coffee on a lazy day. All is in the name : warmth.




Dokkerman and the Turkeying Fellaz - Illegal Move
Dokkerman & the Turkeying Fellaz - Illegal Move (CD/LP) Tramp Records TRLP/CD-9045, 2015-05-18

Last, but not least, released late may last year, this album of deep funk didn't go unnoticed. Just like fellow labelmates The Qualitons, Dokkerman & the Turkeying Fellaz come from Hungary. They play a blend of American and West African funk with an European melting-pot garage rock attitude. You might be coming back to this one many times with the same excitement. A truly great record.
