0260 - Funky Return

Today we have Funk.  I am so glad that this day has become about funk as well because it is my favorite genre to listen to and easily my favorite to share!  This one comes to us from Silva Hound and is called Cool Friends.  With great driving bass this one keeps going hard from start to finish.  With excellent tonal sequences, Silva Hound really executes one of the best Electro Funk tracks I have heard in some time, if not the best one that I have ever heard!  Give it a listen for yourself and let me know what you think!

0259 - Go Back to the Roots

I haven't done a Funky and Free Friday in some time, so it is time to bring it back to what this day was all about!  First up is a really cool funk track from Mat Zo & The Knocks.  Yes you heard me right.  Combined they produce something seriously mind blowing.  This funky piece of heaven is called Get Down 2 Get Up.  Combined with uplifting funk, deep voice vocals, and an awesome driving bass line, this is a beautiful piece of eargasm.  DONT MISS IT and pick up the free download.

Time for something else free!  This track from Culture Code called Space & Time is actually a really great track in my opinion.  Great tonality bringing in something high pitched and catchy enough to remember, combined with a nice driving bass that really makes it feel like an anthem of sorts.  Pick it up for free and let me know which track you liked better!

0258 - Tear Down the House

The first track up for today is an extremely melodic and catchy track from Soulero.  Seconds away isn't a heavy track in any way, just an extremely well done "happy" house that makes you feel on top of the world.  Combining a very catchy chorus, vocal samples, and just an overall great feeling, this one is not one to miss this summer!  Check it out!

This next song has popped up everywhere lately it seems, I have heard so many remixes of this and a whole lot of them are good!  This one, in my opinion, is the best of the lot.  Galantis did an incredible job making this catchy and easily recognizable track, Tom Staar just kills it with the remix.  The drop isn't everything I wanted but you can't have your cake and eat it too I guess.  Enjoy and come back tomorrow for Funky/Free Friday

Soulero - Seconds Away

Galantis - You (Tom Staar Remix)

0257 - You Can't Leave

So for Halloween I great roposted a great rock/electro track From Le Castle Vania and I recently discovered the second part to that track, Nobody Gets Out Alive Part II.  In celebration of his new EP, he decided to record a second version of the track.  Its a banger through and through.  Great vocal samples but big drops that give it an entirely different feel from Part 1.  Give it a listen and let me know what you think of this one!

0256 - Smooth As Silk

Today's song is absolutely beautiful.  For sure not a club song or a big dance track but one that you for sure can't miss.  Extremely smooth and with chilling vocals that give me the shivers, Favored Nation's remix of Silk by Giselle is expertly done.  Give it a listen, close your eyes, and just let the song take you away to a peaceful place.

Second up is a mindblowingly chill dubstep track from T-Mass.  You all know how much I hated dubstep during my radio show and at the start of this blog, almost as much as still kinda hate Big Room but not really.  Well chill dubstep was the swing in the positive direction for me, and this song exemplifies why I enjoy it so much.  Chill, not overwhelming with dubstep sounds, and great tonality.  Check it out for yourself!

0255 - Glitch Hippidy-Hop

For this Funk Monday I have a great Glitch-Hop song for you.  The Haywyre Remix of 7 Minutes Dead's track Peacock is one that out does the original by a long shot in my book.  This one has everything from chill moments, to chill funky moments, to funk so loud I lose track of time.  The amount of variety in this is incredible and really opens the door for what the genre can do instead of going the sad way that house did.  Give it a listen!

0254 - Cant have Pop Without Funk

Today I  have an amazing Electro Pop song that has a truly surprising amount of Funk.  When I first heard of this genre I nearly skipped it immediately and now I am so glad that I didn't!  Its nice and funky with some truly different and gritty vocals that make the song, without a doubt!  Its a really well done piece by Le P, give it a listen!
