Born in 2012: Some brandnew fine Funk Albums everybody should give a listen ...

The year may be young but musically it has been FUNKY as hell so far with lots of great Album releases just out ...

My favorite, downloaded a couple of days ago and playing ever since is:

SATCHEL GRANDE / DANCEFLOOR PROTEST MUSIC

Satchel Grande : Dancefloor Protest Music

Knowing Satchel for quite some time , his latest two albums have been descent but Dancefloor Protest Music tops them all. This is his best work yet, a true FUNK masterpiece!

Then their is the: RHETT FRAZIER INC. / Every Day Is A Saturday - Check this one out, if you are longing for that magic Prince sound this will sure soothe your hungry ears ...

ENOIS SCROGGINS / From E To U - Member of the Zapptown Forum, his 4th album in majestic 80's R&B style ...

ISHAN COOPER / Irresistable Bitch feat. Kokane (Singel) no not that P song but in similar fashion, like George Clinton meets Bootsy to party up ... It's the first superhot single from his hopefully soon to be released album MANNEQUIN MOONWALK.

LA SUITE BIZARRE / Sex Is Medicine - I dont know when this album was officially released but I stumbled about it just the other day. Full Minneapolis Funk on here, nothing but a Purple Party ...

smile I was searching via google to see if somebody mentioned him before in here with no results, however, you can never talk enough about Satchel Grande, really .... Also, tried to find a video from Dancefloor Protest Music, without success ... what is a shame because listening to snippets of the album will not meet its whole brilliance ...

That's why artists should upload their own music on their YouTube channels...

Yes, they should, but lots of them are afraid somebody could rip their music here instead of buying it or they just dont have the time or digital knowledge, who knows ... eek

Vainandy, what a pleasure to have you in this thread since I thought you're listening to this 70's Disco stuff exclusively ... Guess the album titel SEX IS MEDICINE has made you curious smile Honestly, hope you find these recommandations worth checking out ...

Here is another one: HOT PANTS ROAD CLUB - Dont Call Me In The Morning

Wow I would have never thought to ever see them mentioned on the org lol. I heard a radio special about them on soulfly just today lol. Sadly they don't cover Prince anymore these days during their shows. Their singer was the singer for a Prince tribute album and ballet dance show back in the day BTW.

With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be! And if, then I hope that I would then have wen in my environment who joins me in the A....

Do you know if or when a full album will be released? Right now I only have the single Dont Call Me In The Morning and this one is HOT! I didnt know that the singer was in a Prince Tribute Band nor I witnessed any of their live shows ... More HOT PANTS ROAD CLUB, please ....

When I listenend to that special yesterday I think the member that was being interviewed mentioned they are already working on a new album hmmm. But I must admit I was doing something else while listening and didn't pay full attention to what was being talked boxed. In the mail I got from them today nothing is mentioned about an album.

Yes Andi Gabauer was the singer for that ballet show and I saw that back in the day in Linz.

Are you Austrian?

DAMN, dont tell me that they are from AUSTRIA?! I had no clue, thought they are US-Americans or so ... No, I live in France but my father lives in Frankfurt right now, so ich spreche ein bisschen Deutsch, aber nicht viel. When I was a child we've been to Austria on vacasions, that's it, I never thought that in the land of DJ Ötzi (pardon me) people can be that funky! Congratulations!!!

To have a full album from the Hot Pants Road Club would be great. Let's hope their working on it.

Yes they are Austrian lol. Thank God we have real musicians here too and not only DJ Ötzi lol.

The first time I ever saw them was in Vienna a long time ago when they opened for Lionel Ritchie who I went to see because Sheila E. was in his band at that time. They covered a Prince song and did a great concert and that got me hooked biggrin. I have seen them quite often live in concert since then.

HPRC have released several albums over the years already BTW. But IMO they are better on stage than on record.

Merci beaucoup und dankeschön und viele liebe Grüße zurück nach Frankreich biggrin!

I really love what I hear so far, they must be brilliant on stage! From now on I will think of HPRC when Autria comes to my mind and not only stupid Ötzi biggrin Thanks to you! Viele herzlichen Dank und ein schoenes Wochenende in Wien!
