A soulful house groove has always sparked enthousiasme with the Moovmnt camp. It’s rare, but occasionally we come across something so good, it can’t be denied. Well “My Love Is Underground” is a compilation that good consisting of 12 house tracks selected by Jeremy a.k.a. ‘Underground Paris’. He’s a renowned record collector/crate-digger and together with Favorite Recordings the idea was formed of rereleasing some obscure gems from the golden age of House music on a compilation. Thus “My Love Is Underground” was born! Feast your ears on this 3xLP vinyl only compilation and make sure you pick one up.
In an era of constant change it brings me joy to hear something fresh yet recognizable. Slakah the Beatchild has is back with “Soul Movement” Vol. 2 and believe you me, it’s well worth $12.99! The mature sultry sound of “Adventure For 2” will soothe the ear of many women. Whereas the fellas will most definitely love the reminiscent “Where’s Yesterday” where truth is told with rhymes like ‘the people are dying for something different’. Ain’t got nothing more to say other than BUY yourself some quality Soul music and support the real!
Here’s one of those joints that puts a smile on your face from mornin’ till sundown. Snoop Dogg teams up with Madlib and the result is, “Cadillacs”, off the “Thats My Work” Vol. 3 mixtape hosted by DJ Drama dropping today. Enjoy this one!

Lately we’ve been on that Funk trip and after some heavy neck brakage to The Boogie, we found ourselves nodding our heads to DOC Mastermind‘s “1985” album. We’re always to new funkateers and this fella from France is now officially on our radar. The track streamed below, “Avenue d’Italie 2.am”, featuring Monomite reminded us of our buddy Paolo (aka the flute) riding his Vespa in the streets of Italy at night. Make sure you give the entire album (out on Laruche Records) a listen on Bandcamp.
