Earlier this week we received an early promo copy of Fatima‘s upcoming “Follow You” EP and we can tell you it’s amazing. This one’s entirely produced by Floating Points and just sounds bananas. Perhaps you’ve heard the mesmerizing “Mind” before on the radio, but I bet you guys haven’t heard “Red Light” yet. The homies from Eglo uploaded this preview to Youtube which we would like to share with you all. The EP is set to release in May and a small run of vinyl copies will also available prior to the digital release.
Normally I’m not a big fan of remix projects, but sometimes shit hits hard. I heard the vocal remix of Gucci Mane‘s “It’s Alive” and I wasn’t digging it. When I heard the FunkinEven instrumental I was nodding my head. So check out this remix project that’s available as a high quality FREE DWNLD.

Crankin’ up that stereo…hey! Homegirl Fatima is looking lovely again in her latest “Warm Eyes” video. This one was produced by funklord Dam-Funk himself and I’m liking this video. Congratulations with your b-day as well miss and hope to catch you in Rotterdam again soon.
As Eglo records reaches it’s 10th release, West London’s Funkineven releases his third record already. On one side we have “Heartpound” which really is a tune for the dancefloor, while on the other side “Another Space” reminds me a bit of some early rave shit from back in the days. Steve has been busy remixing for Hyperdub artist Ikonika while at the same time practicing as part of Fatima‘s live band. Who made their debut appearance for Deviation at Fabric recently, supporting Bilal. Pictures of which can be found HERE.

On June 26th our Belgian peoples from A Cut Above celebrate their 2 year anniversary endorsed by the good people at Converse. As their special guests they’ve invited Fatima and Funkineven of Eglo Records. Too bad I can’t make it to Cafe Capital, cuz I’ll be in Los Angeles that weekend. We are allowed to give away 5 FREE tickets, so if you’d like to go please add a comment stating why you’d like to see Fatima and Funkineven live in Antwerp.
Also check out this FREE mixtape Lefto made, with all the juice you need. Download it via Soundcloud..
Funkineven is on some straight up Future Funk with his latest 12″ entitled “She’s Acid”. Really great music coming out of the Eglo camp lately and with this being their 8th release I think congratz are in order. Also congratz to Steve for getting signed to Hyperdub recently. The flipside has “Must Move” on it which is more of a psyched out electronic eighties tune if you ask me. Head over to Rush Hour to purchase the vinyl, because the A-side alone is well worth the money!

When miss Fatima (Eglo Fam) was in Rotterdam last year, I asked her which female vocalists she really liked. She told me that her half sister (who she met at a very late stage in her life) turned out to be a fantastic singer. I thought she was pulling my chain, but the plot thickens. Young Swedish Seinabo is actually a very dope vocalist and she’s getting ready to dazzle the world. Together with Frank Nobel she started a group called Def Chronic and here is a sneak preview of things to come. You know where you heard it first..let us know what you think of this upcoming project. Check out what Seinabo had to say her self.
Woke up early this morning, took a long walk home from my uncles house. Realized that it’s up to me and only me to become who I want to be. I need to get this show out of my head and on to a stage. So I decided to let you all hear what has been on store waiting for warmer days, decided to wear the summer dress even though some people still think it’s too cold outside, Ya feel me?!
These snippets are previews, the fruit of a week in January, me, Frank and a whole lot of coffee. It’s not properly mixed just yet, that’s why I’m calling it RAW. But soon enough it’s going to be READY, little 3 plus minutes soundtracks of our life’s. Downloadable, danceable, singalongable, viewable, funkable little keys to a dream. Get ready for the EP , DEF CRONIC oooweeee.
Floating Points aka Sam the Scientist is back with another 12″ on Eglo Records. On the A-side we find “Peoples Potential” which was already out on a limited white label and is now officially released with “Shark chase” on the flip side. We urge you to buy good music and especially when it’s a vinyl only release like this. Our friends over at Rush Hour have it in stock so hurry up and BUY!
