Kofi Ayivor
Adzagli (Jungle Funk)

A key figure on the Paris night scene, French-Cuban musician and pioneering DJ Guy Cuevas gained cult status as a resident DJ at Le Palace, while also working with Yves Saint Laurent, Kenzo, Dior, Hermès... Remasted from the original tapes, this 2xLP is his total musical output! TIP!!!

Street soul grail! Covertly dropped in 1992 as a white label due to being signed to Soul II Soul's Funki Dreds label, this is ruff-but-sweet stripped-back house, garage and hip-hop flavours for heads!

Re-issue of 1998 West-Coast hip-hop classic! Quik's signature gangsta meets George Clinton sound defined a place and an era and he sounds as buttery on the mic and behind the decks all these years later. Few (if any) did it better. Necessary for the g-funk heads!

Perhaps the definition of the sultry genre of 'rare-groove' is 'Give Me The Sunshine', a shimmering jazz-funk earworm that will brighten even your worst day. Cut from the short-lived American soul band Leo's Sunshipp's 1978 debut album, the flip tune is an alluring soul club cut that's just as hot!

HUGE Soca cover of Sade's classic cut "Sweetest Taboo" by Caribbean band Rebles from 1986. The Rebles played as the house band for mega NYC-based Caribbean label, Strakers Records, which released hundreds of Calypso and Soca tracks from 1970 to 2000. Tropical DJ essential!
