Have y'all been checking out Bonobo? Just realeased his 4th album "Black Sands" If you want soul/funk with an edge - this is it. Mostly instrumental, but about a third of the tracks have vocals: here's one from a couple of nights ago http://www.youtube.com/wa...fAc4pUa8w0.

They got strings, horns, beats and funk
