+ All Good Funk Alliance: Sock It To The Man EP
:: Super Hi-Fi
Super Hi-Fi, sister label to Funk Weapons and brought to you by the All Good Funk Alliance and friends is off to a great groove with its upbeat style of combining house, breaks, and funk. Teaming up with Australian vocal gymnast Rubber Johnson, All Good Funk Alliance jam out a party rockin' funkster called "Man With A Jam Plan" that takes you back to the beginning of hip hop. Both this track and the title track "Sock It To The Man" are infused with funk'n'soul samples, rockin' rhythm breaks, and sit around the 120 BPM range which is a nice change of pace. Kraak & Smaak head up a peak time house mix of "Sock It To The Man", while the Fort Knox Five keep it cut 'n' funky on their mix of "Man With A Jam Plan". My picks are the two originals, but anyone who loves good times party music will get down with this record.
