Daje Funk Records has been putting out astonishingly sophisticated releases for the selective audience.

With the Slam Dunk EP they are offering a plethora of Funk tinged cuts with a masterclass quality seal.

I’ve singled out the final cut on the B-side by Coldbeard. It’s called A Funky Situation and closes the EP the coolest possible way.

A rolling synth-bass and a simple drum-loop is soon joined by a slick rhythm guitar and a Rhodes-ish electro groove buried a bit behind in the mix.

The others are curious little spies. They want to know which mixes you stayed for, which ones you ghosted, whether you
