"Footprints", the latest release from the Munich based label features a diverse collection of previously unreleased funk and Afro-soul compositions from an array of international artists. Highlights include "Time", filled with wicked rhodes and funky samples from Sam Iri. Karl Hector and The Malcouns drops some gritty funk with "Who’s Foolin Who". Bad Jazz Troupe contributes some raw funkiness of their own with "Seventy Three" and "Afro Hop", the latter filled with Latin rhythms and remixed by label founder Dusty. Dusty’s superb collection of hidden gems makes this disc worthy of repeated listens. This is certainly of the better compilations you’ll hear this year.
