Horatio Luna – Action Reaction [La Sape]

If you didn’t know it already I’m here to tell you that Horatio Luna is one of the premier bassists on the scene today. He’s one of many talented musicians who have emerged from Australia in recent years. The Melbourne native has the gift of groove and knows how to apply it to every recording he appears on. Luna’s latest, “Action Reaction” is packed with funky bangers where the groove works its way up from your feet to your hips. Before you know it everyone is getting their groove on. There’s plenty of bangers to choose from. The aptly titled “Spicy” is fueled by wicked synths layered over an infectious groove. Jake Amy and Brad Ballard take turns displaying their proficiency with funky synth arrangements throughout the album. “The Win” is a simmering House tune aided by Hugo Turudija’s seductive Tenor melodies. “Rectify”, a tribute to Moodymann, is chilled out cosmic jazz with a hypnotic groove. Six years removed from his debut, Luna delivers with a sophomore release that provides immediate satisfaction.

Detroit Rising – Lush Grooves Vol.1,2 & 3 [Down Jazz Records]

Detroit Rising is the collective fronted by Mark Adams and Chris De Carmine. Adams and De Carmine were members of Roy Ayers Ubiquity. Ubiquity married soul and jazz that resulted in timeless funky recordings. “Lush Grooves Vol.1,2 & 3” was created with Ubiquity and other 70s bands in mind. The compilation features an array of electro soul compositions re-imagined by a supreme team of DJ/Producers. DJ Spinna, Don Surf and Bruk Rogers to name a few. “Vol.1” starts off with the vibrant “Talking Walls”, remixed by Atlanta based DJ Kai Alce. The result is an up-tempo heater with an infectious groove and lush vocals. Jimpster remixes the Roy Ayers standout “Don’t Stop The Feeling” into a burning house banger. “Day Dreaming” features the keyboard wizardry of Kaidi Tathum. Tatham’s lush strings and silky chord arrangements make this a soulful gem. “Vol.2” is equally impressive with “Don’t Look Back”. Bruk DJ/Producer Don Surf flips the tune into a broken beat heater. The production duo Makez rework “Dre’s World” into a soulful Disco floor burner. “Vol.3” keeps the party going. “Open Letter”, remixed by East London based DJ/Producer EVM128 is soulful house at it’s best. Three compilations wrapped into one album that pays homage to the past. The result is a future soul recording with grooves galore destined to sink into your body. I dare you not to dance after listening to this record.

Lay-Far Dance Orchestra – Skybreak [In-Beat-Ween Music]

DJ/Producer Alexander Lay-Far has cemented his status as a premier producer of infectious dance tracks. That being said, Jazz funk is at the root of his beginnings. Lay-Far Dance Orchestra’s debut “Skybreak” taps into his past. Backed by a band of premier musicians. They seamlessly fuse nu-soul and jazz rhythms over a relentless groove. The opener, “Take Flight Pt 1” cruises along a steady groove providing a canvas for breezy flute melodies from Timur Nekrasov. “Where You From” features funky guitar licks from Lay-far. Maxim Glonti provides infectious piano grooves that will fill a dance floor. “Take Flight Pt 2” dives into a deeper cosmic groove, Glonti’s electric keys brim with warm tones Lay-far has assembled a tight band that delivers from the start. If they’re performing in your neighbourhood then do go see them. A marvellous LP that ensures a funky good time.
