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.

Isolee – Beau Mot Plage (Freeform Reform Parts I & II by Freeform Five) [Classic]
Web Web – Kover Kover [Compost Records]
Ten years in the game, the latest from Web Web is their first without any original compositions. “Kover Kover” reimagines an array of classic rock and Pop compositions and the results are quite impressive. The Grace Jones classic “Slave To The Rhythm” is evidence of that. Tony Lakatos’s Soprano dances on top of the spirited rhythm section. Drummer Peter Gall along with bassist Christian Von Kaphengst’s funky upright bass lays down a wicked groove that gets a hold on you. The group captures the psychedelic essence of Jimi Hendrix’s “Burning Of The Midnight Lamp”. They transform it into a low fi fusion gem. Joe Jackson’s “Stepping Out” is awashed in meditative blissful soundscapes. Web Web has taken a collection of standout tunes and placed their personal stamp on them. The results are truly marvelous. The unwritten rule is when you cover a tune, it should be as good or even better than the original. Mission accomplished.

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.
