0224 - Can you Deal? The Funk is Real

Happy Friday everyone!  The weekend is finally here, and for all you finishing your year at college or graduating, congrats and enjoy your summer!  Its kinda crazy to think that summer vacation isn't a thing for me any more...

OH WELL, lets celebrate the weekend with some awesome funky music.

First up is the new one from SCNDL, bringing back his unique funky sound into the wonderful world of Bounce.  This is one of my favorite sub genres just because it inspires such a feeling of joy and happiness.  The Munsta brings in a great tonal sequence, that has been stuck in my head for at least a few days.  Couldn't get it out of my head if I wanted to, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

SCNDL - The Munsta

Last up today is a nice jucy new EP for you all from Sparx.  His second EP containing 6 tracks is a great look at what the future of this overall genre of music could be.    Ever since I posted one of his songs way back in the early days of this blog (Find that post right here), I have been waiting to hear more from him!  Its funky, driving, and just overall a great collection of songs.  Check out the album mix and if you like it you can pick up the EP for free!  Have a great and safe weekend everyone!

090 - Weekend Swag

The weekend is finally here.  Hope that everyone is alright after Halloween last night.  Im not but thats only because the power at my house went out for a bit and the storm kept me from going to see the midnight release of Ender's Game.  Oh well, the weekend is here.  Time to let your inhibitions fly and go to Halloween Parties, just relax, or go to a convention (which is what I will be doing).  In honor of a rough week, I present you with one dose of funky, one dose of just awesome, and one dose of spooky.


 DOSE 1: The Funk
Sparx - The Odyssey
Funky as they come and you can't handle it.  This one is seriously funky and I love it so much.  A great combination of funk and electro house, this track by Sparx really delivers just about everything you could want in a unique funk track.  Check it out for sure!

DOSE 2: The Awesome:
Armin Van Buuren - Pulse (Cosmic Gate Remix)
I will be honest, though I listen to everything Armada Music releases, a large portion of it is very repetitive, boring, or just plain not interesting.  However, there are a few diamonds in the rough, and this track happens to be one of them.  A remix of Armin Van Buuren's track Pulse, Cosmic Gate does a truly excellent job of bringing this track back to life.  Seriously, this one is one that is not to be missed!  The video came out today and for some reason I can not embed it, so click the link above!

DOSE 3: The Spooky
Click here for Trip or Treat vol 2!
This is an awesome 11 song Mixtape called Trip or Treat volume 2 that is available for free download through thissongissick.com.  These songs are all a little out there and pretty unique in a spooky, but satisfying way.  I think of all 11 tracks the first is my favorite, because of beginning and the drop is satisfying as hell.  Even though its not Halloween anymore, this mixtape is for sure worth the free download!  Below is the first song off the mixtape.
