the funk runs deep and rich on world wide funk, bootsy collins’ first studio album since 2011’s tha funk capital of the world. populated with musical friends old and new, and recorded in his cincinnati home’s bootzilla re-hab studio, world wide funk marks both a reckoning and significant reboot, if you will, for the rhinestone rock star monster of a doll baby baba! blue-chip rappers like doug e. fresh, big daddy kane, dj quik, dru down, and chuck d, along with guitar shredder buckethead, join a bootsy-curated posse of fresh new artists on a record that embraces everything from the classic p-funk sound bootsy pioneered to the closest collins has ever come to radio-active, boots on the ground, friendly fire in a musical-p-rated-adventure.
the limited splattered double vinyl is housed in a gatefold sleeve in comes with download code and booklet.

atomium is a bass riff driven phat slo-mo disco funk groove featuring the man himself from funkadelic / parliament with his usual unique vocal playing with you as it rolls along on tripped out harpsichord and vocoder riffs dr. packer dubs it up a little more on remix duties with his usual disco funk edit style that we all know and love him for.

a salute to the boobs. claudes super low down, >big n round< gets a supremely filthy treatment by some of his favorite producers of the year. the a-side is maetriks smashing >feel dem boobies< mix, a relentless tech funk bomb with a heavy beat rooted deep in the earth. the flip is the amazing holger zilske, delivering a super freaky computer-flavored funk mix.
claude vonstrokes hit album >bird brain< has been remixed by some of the best producers in the world from carl craig to robag whrume. dirtybird has decided to release the majority of remixes on vinyl in a series of very limited pressings throughout the next few months. each record will have 300 copies only.

this time its >the greasy beat<, the famed cvs / bootsy collins collaboration. continuing with the theme of claudes favorite producers - robag wruhme steps in for his first appearance on dirtybird. we are honored to have him on this release as he has heavily influenced both claude and justin martin over the years.
the other side features the young j. phlip, delivering her mad breaks/house version that always raises the roof at dirtybird events.
also, a super cool appearance by dop who made their debut on mothership last year as guests on the catz n dogz album. we are very happy to have them back for this special record.

>who is the person you would most like to work with?< for claude vonstroke, its definitely bootsy collins - the biggest personality in parliament funkadelic and funniest character the funk world has ever seen. we couldn’t be any more excited to have bootsy on dirtybird and this crazy collaboration of styles is the lead single on claude vonstroke’s 2nd album, “bird brain.” if you haven’t heard of bootsy we couldn’t write it better than rolling stone… “bootsy collins’ rubber band was the most entertaining and longest-running spin-off of george clinton’s eternal p-funk circus, and that’s because bootsy is a true star, the clown prince of comic, psychedelic, good-times funk – if he weren’t such a genius of the bass, you’d think he was jimmie walker in a sequined costume, star-shaped mirrored shades included. his career is like a horatio alger story based in chocolate city: plucked from teenage obscurity in 1969 to play with james brown, the former william collins of cincinnati brought a slap-happy zest to jb’s sound, then hooked up with clinton and was reborn in his image, with a little help from lsd.” it is certain that claude vonstroke is not nearly as accomplished as bootsy collins, but he takes the same tongue-in-cheek approach to his music and that’s why this collaboration really works. both claude and bootsy believe you got to get up for the down stroke and there’s no way to fake the funk or your nose will grow, pinocchio!

funkadelic have created an enduring legacy, and the power of their impact is visceral in detroit. their records not only played with genre, but possessed a diabolical sense of humour that led to music domination by the late 70s with parliament, funkadelic, parlet, bootsy’s rubber band and the brides of funkenstein all releasing albums the same year for two years in a row. the music itself is beyond stereotype, but equally huge is that they were a black band not allowing themselves to be limited by anyone else’s notions of who they could be, having a massive impact on the next generation of detroit music, detroit techno. but more than just techno, it is a freedom of thinking that extends beyond boxes, so we included all sorts of today s generation of detroit musicians and producers to show the wide range of music that was funkadelic and how these ideas are still contemporary, they endure and inspire.

smbd aka simbad is back on gamm turf again after a longer break and is planning a few eps with seasonal themes for gamm. the first ep is summer and as you might expect he delivers three tasteful summer influenced reworks and remixes which we hope will be your perfect dj weapons over the summer months. if the broken(ish) co-op with alphabet s heaven of bootsy collins (rather be with you) won t do it for you or the supa soulful colonel abrams tribute (table 4 2) don t grab your attention, we guarantee that the stunning 4/4 rework with mike lowrey of jazzy jeff s summer classic (summertime) will be the cut at any summer festival...big jam if u ask us!

newborn munich based label slam city jams comes around the corner with its first release from young gun gonima straight outta montreal, canada. his grids ep? an exciting mixture of swinging distorted drums, catchy melodies and hazy atmospheres. you can definitely spot gonima s passion for dx7 adventures, analog drums and tape hiss right here. opener -grids- starts off with lush synth blips, 707 drums and a bassline bootsy collins would give high-fives for. -subdivided- is one of these tracks that shows you that it doesn’t need more than a few elements to get you going: a rough kick drum, cowbells and a smooth pad that gets slapped by just one bass note. the last original on b2 is the ambient-like -organ tutorials-, which shifts your mind directly to outer space. and as if all this wasn t enough, someone really special did a great remix job – khotin from 1080p fame, who gave the a2 cut a treat with his unique trademark sound. four house and ambient tracks both for the floor and the couch. or as gonima puts it: -an ep that has the sound of visiting home in the winter and rediscovering environments frequented in the past, birthing previously obscured memories. the sounds within are a ritual dance to stay warm through the procession of the seasons-

>halfway between the gutter and the stars< is fatboy slims third album, and it is also this prolific dance producers third release on music on vinyl. here, norman cook continues the work he started on >better living through chemistry< (movlp111) and >you ve come a long way, baby< (movlp099), bringing in collaborators macy gray, bootsy collins and roger sanchez, yet he steps away from the capricious commercial world of the pop charts in favor of the steady beat of the dance floor.

following the wild success of a tune called >miezekatze< the viennese duo ogris debris now teams up with munich based academic producer and guitar virtuoso bartellow for a split/vice-versa feature ep. bartellows opener track >the thrill is gone< calls its home the kenny dixon jr. house territory while its funk feelings remind us of soulmates bootsy collins and george clinton. then the so called >rethrill< performed by ogris debris drives the tune even further into a pumping house excursion going crazy on a euphoric vocal chorus cryin out loud: thats why we party all night long!

mark stewart first made his presence felt as the front man for the pop group in the late 1970s. they were pioneers of the post punk dance sound and had success with singles such as >she is beyond good and evil<, and >we are all prostitutes<. when the band split in 1980, mark joined the emerging on u sound crew as a part time member of the new age steppers. he then went on to form his own band with keith leblanc and doug wimbish, the rhythm section of the sugar hill gang, and guitarist skip mcdonald. with adrian sherwood and his production magic at the controls, the maffia unleashed an awesome mix of styles that sounded like bootsy collins jamming over a bootleg jah shaka tape in an urban warzone. this incredible mix of funk, dub and electronic overload pre empted techno and drum & bass by years. mark stewart, often copied, never bettered. the film retraces the singers steps and paths from the early days of the pop group right up to the present. schifer, who followed mark around for a full 3 years, has crafted a detailed, often intimate portrait of the artist, supplemented by interviews with a. o. mark stewart himself, adrian sherwood (on.u sound), daniel miller (mute records), nick cave, mick harvey, doug wimbish, skip mcdonald, keith leblanc, douglas hart (the jesus & mary chain), fritz catlin (23 skidoo), mike watt (minutemen, the stooges), gareth sager (the pop group, rip rig and panic), dan catsis (the pop group), john waddington (the pop group) janine rainforth (maximum joy), massive attack, keith levine (p.i.l.) and many others, plus never seen live recordings and music clips
