Strange Games & Funky Things Vol.5

Die unglaublich gute Compilation-Serie „Strange Games and Funky Things“ auf BBE bekommt Zuwachs: Teil 5, wieder mal von Dj Spinna zusammengestellt. Kommt am 28. September heraus.

The Strange Games… series which began in the summer of 1997, represents the blueprint for modern R&B and rap music. It joins the dots between 70s soul, 80s rare groove and 90s mass market hip hop. This compilation contains a wide variety of styles of tracks, from classic dance-floor fillers as well as lesser known delights. A more accessible diggers delight if you wish with an emphasis on quality track and not just songs worth having for a 2 second sample.
Featuring a much more worldly selection than its predecessors – tracks by the multi platinum selling War to Sylvia ( Founder of Sugarhill Records) sit side by side with world music underground icons like C.K. Mann and Francisco Aguabella.
This volume is the 5th in a series of compilations that appears to have the widest appeal of all BBEs compilations and proves to be even better by the fact that there is a bonus mixed CD by the one and only Dj Spinna!

Als Appetizer ist schon vorab eine 7″ Single erschienen mit dem Track: S.S.O. Band- Faded Lady:
