soul / funk

the sound stylistics are back! 2 years on since the release of the sound stylistics play deep funk which one of the most sought after and best selling freestyle albums ever, the band have returned with the greasin the wheels. this absolute killer follow up features the same line up plus very special guests such as jan kincaid (brand new heavies drummer) and guitarist eddie roberts (the new mastersounds) from which this 2 track 12inch single is taken. the a side tie one on is blistering driving funky jazz with massive horns and features top notch guitar man al cherry picking his way to groove nirvana, whilst the flipside knucklehead has the one man swing machine eddie roberts laying down some of his righteous licks. this release will wet the appetite of the groups fans from tokyo to toronto. the sound stylistics have returned and are taking no prisoners, lesser bands beware!

another slice of wax from the recently liberated library album from the sound stylistics. recorded in 2002 for bruton the album has weaved its way into funk folklore for collectors the world over, becoming a word of mouth phenomena and a collectors wet dream due to its failure to ever get a proper release. despite file sharers, bootleggers and back street dealers pushing illegitimate copies of the tracks, the legendary status of this lost album has not waned one bit. consisting of a whos who of the london funk scene the band consists of, amongst others, members of jtq, jamiroquai, brand new heavies, the new mastersounds, galliano and the herbaliser. the players theme evokes the classic memphis soul stew by king curtis, with its creeping bass and layered instrumentation. bringing the drums to the fore, this is another guaranteed dancefloor filler! over on the flip soul dynamite swaggers with a similar style to speedometers most recent work, with some heavy horn action. once again, the breaks come thick and fast to keep your dancers sweating!
