Missy Elliott-Something for my People (Basement Jaxx Mix)
Guitarra G-Banda Sonora (whatever it is)

Liz Millar did a CD for Remix magazine a while ago. The best funky house I've ever heard. real New York style, funky as ya undies, dancey house.
I'm hopeless with track names but if you can lay your handfs on that CD, it would be a good start.

Chicas Malas :)

[Debz]

* Mousse T - Fire (remix)
* Shakedown - at night (mousse t remix is good as well as the kid creme!)
* Sade - By your side (i think thats the name of it - not really *funky* house though, bit more cruisey)
* Wawa - no problem... might be gettin a bit old but still a good one :)
* Afro Medusa - Dreams (problem kids mix)
* Deepstar - Sugar!!! < gotta be the best track gettin played at the moment.

.... and i dare you to chuck in Planet Funk vs Atomic Kitten for some cheese .. Give me sun right now :) I'm still waiting to hear this on a dancefloor :P

[djcz]

sweet thanks debz.
I got the kid creme remix of at night - shakedown.

I know this is an old thread but I was wondering the same thing.

What are some good funky chunky house tracks/labels I should be on the lookout for? I've been asked to do a friends 21st on the 21st and I'm mostly into trance but I do like to "get down" every now and then.

Any help/suggestions is greatly appreciated.

ive had an endless stream of funky house compilations in my review pile in the last few months, and there is plenty of good stuff around.. some of my current faves:

prophets of sound - new dawn
godscent - moonlight ride
jezebels addiction - believe in love
john julius knight - dancin' in paradise
nightgroovers - do it all night
Richard F - Feels alright
julie mcknight - home

and a few slightly older ones:

bel amour - bel amour
jon cutler - its yours
dajae - every day my life
lil devious - come home
the ones - flawless
deep swing - in the music

a few good house compilations of recent months:
chalet soiree (hussle)
alfresco soiree (hussle)
beach house (hed kandi)

[orpheus]

Thanks mate. I'll check them out and let you know how it all goes.

[nermalle]

definately julie mcknight - home.


and then mix in guitarra g with either dajae - everyday of my life or kings of tomorrow - finally.....god i love that!

also layo and bushwhacker's love story is a show stopper.

and finish off with krafty kuts..

'c'mon everybody put your hands in the air, wave em to the rhythm like you just dont care...'

[jimmyjames]

hehe werd nermalle, krafty kuts is THE party professional.

"we got the groove, we got the sound, we got the vibe to make ya get down"...

and then mix in guitarra g with either dajae - everyday of my life or kings of tomorrow - finally.....god i love that!

thats a classic Shamus trick, that one....
