Jayl Funk & Quincy Jointz Ft. Georges Perin - Give Me Love (Søndae Records)

Jayl Funk and Quincy Jointz are long-time legends in the nu-funk movement, known together for their perennial dancefloor staple “Fresh Funky Dude,” recorded back in 2009. At long last they’ve joined forces once again for another blazing track sure to also join the ranks of nu-classics. “Give Me Love” features the powerhouse vocals of Greek soul singer Georges Perin over a sexy non-stop disco groove. The tune is uplifting and catchy, filled with piano riffs, slinky bass, and vibes for days. It’ll turn a frown upside down.

A pair of top notch remixes propel the tune in exciting new directions. Jack & Jointz, the duo of Quincy Jointz and Thorsten Walter, dip “Give Me Love” in smooth, funky soul waters — the crisp drum track, expressive keys, and sax riffs bring the foundations of the song further to the fore. The second mix is courtesy of Andy Bach (Young Society Records) who adds a rousing soulful house music flavor. This one’s perfect for the late night crowd, building elegantly over 4-on-the-floor beats as George Perin drives home the song’s hooks. Another fantastic single from the always on-point Søndae Records.

discObeta - Rare Formz (Super Hi-Fi Recordings)

Childhood friends Scotty Marz and Erin Paul bust forth from The Big Apple with DiscObeta and the jam-tastic new single “Rare Formz.” Previously releasing on the likes of Breakbeat Paradise and Left Hand Lucy Recordings, DiscObeta has landed on Super Hi-Fi Recordings with one of their strongest cuts yet. Flaunting a boom-bap beat, some Bootsy-filtered bass lines, a jubilant horn section, and a stick-in-yer-head keyboard melody, “Rare Formz” is ready to delight on all fronts — from the DJ set to crash pad listening sessions.

A trio a solid remixes round out the single. Jayl Funk (Timewarp Music, Bombastic Jam) is up first, delivering the party vibes with summer breeze guitars, cool vinyl scratches and hip hop drops, and an overall good-times feel. The duo of Jack & Jointz (Chinchin Records, Timewarp) is up next, adding some electronic flavors to the mix including bass synch squelches and cool vocal cut-ups. Suddenly a cranking saxophone enters and takes this one home. The single closes out with a killer rework by the Minsk-based Funky Boogie Brothers. The tune opens in a ‘70s pimp-mobile fashion before the beats slam in and the tracks takes off on a swinging b-boy romp. The vibe is truly alive on “Rare Formz.”
