NEWS (Update from the studio)

The All Good Funk Alliance is currently working on several remixes, look out for The Cherry Boppers and Fort Knox Five remixes this year. The Super Hi-Fi release of "Man with a Jam Plan" & "Sock it to Ya" is now at the distros being pressed and all that and should be coming your way soon followed by robust remix packages.

Right now you can purchase the Sleeve and Friction remixes of some songs from the AGFA LP Social Comment via Amazon or your better digital distro. The Neighbour & Think Tank release should have been out yesterday, but Kudos is slowly pushing that out to all the stores so we expect it to be a bit of a slow launch. The remixes for that are also coming from Maelstrom, Kid Gusto, B-Team, Dimitri Max and more. Check back here for updates on this release.

B-Team vs Missy E "Lick to Come Down"

This is a mashup using the Neighbourhood Romeo remix of "Took to Come Down" and Missy E's "Lick Shots", that I thought I would post up for those that might have missed it from back in the day. This was done back when this record was released back in June of 2007 as our first release on Super Hi-Fi. The whole idea behind B-Team and Super Hi-Fi was to release music that really married house with what we do with our Funk Weapons and AGFA sound. The original remix from Neighbourhood Romeo really had that cool indie rock disco sound that fit the vocals from Missy E perfectly. I've played this a million times and it never gets old or stale, even though the Missy vocal was used a billion times on several remixes, none of the other mashups really match this one IMO. So here it is... we hope you enjoy..

Neighbour & Think Tank LIVE Video

While we wait for the boys to finish up the album, here is a little teaser of what the Neighbour & Think Tank live show is all about. Neighbour uses 2 cdjs to rock his own songs, and a keyboard and a guitar in which he plays over them and sneaks in some bits and pieces of musical history to make the story complete. Think Tank just destroys the mic but he has that keen sense of when to rock and when to sit back and let the beat ride. We are super excited about the "Night Owl" EP, and it will be interesting to see how the whole album fits together. Musically it will be all over the place, Disco, Dub-Step, Down-Tempo, just all over the map. I really love how party rocking Think Tank is, yet he can deliver deep and thoughtful lyrics as well. These guys will be legends one day, I'm just glad they trust us enough to handle their music.

Featurecast "Grandmaster Cast" EP OUT VIA JUNO UK

So happy to hear this is finally getting out, via distro at Groove.

Get it at Juno now here

Featurecast has put out some of best records in the funky breaks scene over the past couple of years and this record will mos def keep that tradition alive. Starting out with “Run for Cover” which fuses a Lenny K sample with some heavy JB type drums and everything but the kitchen sink into a heaving jam of a track. Stickybuds brings in that Nick Thayer, A-Skillz type sound on the remix and takes the song in a bit harder direction. On the flip Featurecast flips Jacko’s jam into a party breaks monster “Sunshine Boogie” complete with Fatman Scoop shout outs and all sorts of bits to make the song new again. Finally we round out the EP with “Feel for You (take it back)” which fuses the rap and horns from the Chaka classic with fresh beats and funky scratch bits to make for another party rocking bomb.

All Good Funk Alliance "Swing the South" Free Download

Back in 2006 we put this song out on AFA-FW4, it was the b side on the "Pete's Sake" release and was also was included on our first album "On the One". Last weekend I played an all vinyl gig and ended up pulling out this record and playing this song, and I kinda forgot how dope this song is. This was the first record in which we made some actual profit and I think it really help push us out into the world. I wish I could find the sales sheet to see what I said about the release at the time, but after much searching I couldnt find it. So anyway without further ado, here is a link to the Mp3
