##ALBUMS##
>> >>Chandalismo Ilustrado - Gecko Turner<<
Gecko Turner returns with his second album for Madrid's Love Monk label. The follow up to the highly rated 'Guapapasea' once again baffles and delights with a unique collage of samba, reggae, bossa, Afrobeat, Cubana, Latin blues, folk, funk and soul.

>> >>El Evangelio Segun Mi Jardinero - Martin Buscaglia<<
Fabulously titled ('The Gospel According To My Gardener') album from Martin Buscaglia, filled with equally smart music. Be sure and listen to this...
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/11793.html
>> >>LED: Life Emission Display<<
A welcome return from Italy's Funky Juice records. Sebastiano Forte, a young musician and producer from Sicily started his LED project in 2003, and this is the result. A captivating album of electrojazzfunk that is highly succesful at merging computer generated sound with real musicianship.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12112.html
>> >>Anthology Volume 1 - J Dilla<<
A timely collection of productions, remixes and original works from one of the most prolific, talented and respected beat-makers of his generation. The late J-DILLA aka JAY-DEE raised the musical bar in hip hop production with a constantly evolving, challenging approach to his art.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12116.html
>> >>Greatest Hits Volume 1 - The Neptunes<<
Very limited pressing featuring - not surprisingly - some of The mighty Neptunes finest moments. Thankfully does not include the bloody annoying "Can I Suck It Like That" and is a great quality heavyweight pressing.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12115.html
>> >>DJ Floorfillers: Reggae<<
Does exactly what it says on the tin, 12 classic tracks in a dancehall style. You won't find this lot easily elsewhere - especially on one double album.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12114.html
>> >>On The Spot - Various<<
As the title suggests, this is but a fleeting, though by no means hasty, glance at the diverse and meandering Nordic jazz scene. The object of this compilation is not to show a detailed cross-section – on the contrary, its a rather haphazard selection. But jeez, what a selection!
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12113.html
>> >>En La Playa Al Sol - Rodrigo Sanchez<<
En la playa al sol is a tasty musical cocktail, it combines contemporary Latin, Jazz, Soul & Lounge styles in the best possible way. Celebrating the lust for life without being trivial.

##SINGLE OF THE WEEK##
>> >>Wax Romeo EP - Wax Romeo<<
New comer to the Big Foot stable, Wax Romeo drops his debut EP, an Indian tinged romp thru uptempo funk & breaks. From the India meets New Orleans sound of "White People Love Butter Chicken" to the Juke box jump of "Hey Kids" Wax Romeo delivers dancefloor gold. Getting play from FK5, AGFA, The Rub & more. Going to be a label to watch.

##SINGLES##
>> >>Keep On Keepin' On - Black Science Orchestra<<
Fresh from a cellar in Muswell hill comes the last box of these gems. Soulful house in the Afro style from 1999.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12127.html
>> >>Rio De Janeiro - Rosalia De Souza<<
Two excellent teched up remixes of standout tracks from the Carioca Chanteusse's last album Brasil Precisa Balançar.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12128.html
>> >>The Proposition / Ghost Walk - The Budos Band<<
Incredible record from Staten Island's Budos Band, probably the best new school afro funk band in ages. Praise be to Daptone records for keeping real music alive.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12121.html
>> >>Northside Shuffle - Push<<
>From the Tunes vaults: a corker of a jam from Ernie McKone and Crispin Taylor aka Push. Back in the 90's Push were the rhythm section behind the showcase Talkin' Loud band Galliano. Released too early for the now booming new school funk market, this sunk without trace. Stay tuned for more from Papa Joes!
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12123.html
>> >>Notekura - Pepe Link<<
Instrumental house with heaps of atmosphere and lush production from Pepe Link. On the flip Jimpster strips it down to the bare essentials.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12118.html
>> >>I Feel Love - Leo Mendez Group<<
New York connected via Barcelona-London-Tokyo. Leo Méndez Group is a project by SK Radicals` Sean Khan and Barcelona`s one and only Joan Barbena. Recovering the original soulful organic house sounds, I feel love is directly connected with some of the best moments from MAW or Joey Negro, slightly Latin but irresistibly jazzfunked up.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12117.html
>> >>Got To Be The Way It Is - Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings<<
Uptempo deep soulful funk from the one and only Sharon Jones. An early release on Daptone, this was a limited pressing and guess what? We have a few a vendre.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12126.html
>> >>You Gave Me Love - Bob & Gene<<
orignal 60's soul on the Mo Do label, reissued by Daptone records.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12122.html
>> >>Soul Freedom - Ray & his Family<<
>From the Tunes vaults: Now deleted 7 from Jazzman. 2 Deep funk bombs, and we have a couple we can let go for the right price..
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12124.html
>> >>Tic-Splasch - Claude Vasori<<
Far out and exotic french library music from the 70s. A now deleted Jazzman 7, we have a just couple of these.
http://www.tunes.co.uk/tunes/featured/12125.html
Over and out!
