Smoove’s Remix of Da Wiesel’s “Boogaloo Stomp” is one for the Bboy books. It’s a Battle Beata Gordita bel Grande and it’s coming for you and your crew…
I didn’t prepare for battle so I lost my shoes and my glasses when this came on in the room just now. Just so you’re ready, let me inform you that this is a Battle Beat smash and it’s as if somebody made a Hip-hop and Latin Soul sandwich on Breakbeat bread, smothered it in Groovy Gravy, blended the whole thing, and poured it into your boombox.
Sunset Soul has some serious Soulful Funk foundations and you should check out the Sunset Soul website.
And Smoove of the infamous Smoove & Turrell (@SmooveTurrell) has got the Funky sounds, remix or otherwise, from Latin and Disco to Funky and Psychadelic. Definitely digging it. So much so that we had to kick in this l’il Jackmoove jammy compilation from the man himself:
More about Smoove from his Soundcloud:
I live in Newcastle in the UK I’m a producer and DJ named Smoove . Crossing all musical boarders in my own compositions and in my DJ sets by fusing Funk, Northern Soul, Hip Hop, Breakbeats, Disco and Jazz.
I DJ in the UK and Europe with tours promoting the late 2005 release of my debut album “Dead Men’s Shirts” on Acid Jazz Records from which came the hit singles “Coming Back” ( feat Jess Roberts )and “The Revolution Will Be Televised’ ( feat Ferank Manseed).
2006 saw the creation of the succesfull “Mash Up” label Wack Records. The first two releases “Big Love” & “Quality Soul”.
Please, please visit Smoove & Turrell’s site and pay attention to these fellows.
And from the SunsetSoul website:
He is one of the most influencing and interesting djs from Leipzig (Saxony) playing the real deep and heavy funk tunes for years. His collection of records includes rare funk pearls, electro hip hop from new to oldschool and grooving breaks. He started djing in the middle of the 90s and formed his unique style of mixing. Like the animal – weasel – he is a diversified and fast player who combines scratching, juggling and cutting to a fresh mixture. Without big publicity Da Wiesel is growing up to be a sure party rocker in the scene here. That is why he is the new resident dj of Leipzigs much valued club Distillery. He supports the insider locations – Horns Erben and Polyester Club, where Funk, Soul and Dancefloor Jazz tunes rip up the floor. As support for Blowfly (Alternative Tentacles, Miami), Dj Krush, Smoove (Acid Jazz, Wack Rec.), Tony L. and the Safari Sounds or Resoul (True Beatz Crew) he was able to show his “wild style” to the dancefloors. This year he rocks the crowd of the famous SPLASH Festival, the Battle of the Year Party and Wordsound Tour together with Kouhai (Osaka), Spectre and Sensational.
