Purple Vinyl !!!Sol Power Sound is proud to present their first release of 2016, a 3-song EP by recent Finnish expatriate, Tom of Brooklyn. After a massive release on Razor-n-Tape in 2015 (and slight change of moniker), the ever-mysterious Tom delivers a 3-song EP of breezy disco grooves inspired by his recent cruise of the islands.On Theme Song from Deep Cock, Tom double-teamed with Deep Sang (of the Sol Power All-Stars). The tag-team duo came up with a tight and groovy title sequence for a film that will likely never see the light of day.Look at Me is a moody slice of disco goodness that Tom put together for his now-legendary sunrise sets on the ship.Make Me Wonder is a warm-weather jam that fills the B-side of the record. A seemingly endless funky groove, it was Tom's secret weapon at his all-day beach parties in port. He tells us he can't wait to play it at outdoor jams in his new home of Brooklyn, NY (and at Fire Island soirees this summer).

The fourth release on Austin Boogie Crew Records comes in the shape of an undeniable 45 from none other than Starship Connection Representing San Francisco, Starship members B.Bravo & Teeko have been leading the scene for years with their unique brand of modern and hip-hop infused funk. With their first appearance on ABC, the duo offers two complimentary jams...“Heartbreaker” is an amazing modern funk cover of the Zapp & Roger original. Driven by talkbox harmonies, cracking drums, thumping bass, and slick halftime break downs, Starship puts their signature twist on a classic.

Legendary Hip-Hop producer & emcee, Sach offers up his eleventh solo album "Fidelity" !This nine-song EP was recorded in Fall 2015 utilizing a new 24-track supplied by Sach's long-time contemporary Giovanni Marks (aka Subtitle). The results are an eclectic progression of his laid-back jazzy production style & delivery first introduced back in his formative years with The Nonce. Live drums, bass & saxophone were woven into 'Fidelity", alongside scratching & percussion by long-time accomplice DJ E-Spinfiniti. Album highlights include special guests Mean Green (on the smoker's anthem 'Wise Buds Being Broken') and Koko on the exuberant "Cha Cha (In The Lounge With Sach)".

BACK IN STOCK !!!Now four releases in, Razor-N-Tape Reserve continues to deliver the deepness with this EP from the Netherlands' Junktion.Although a relative upstart on the scene, Junktion has been getting some serious heads nodding lately with releases on Sleazy Beats and Outplay, and the Hot & Bothered EP continues to define his dusty and organic sound.From the summery ease of the title track, to the fresh take on the oft-sampled 'I'm Wishin' to the discofied chugger 'Fling Cleaning' followed by the slow-burning 'Visions of You,' this EP is a beautiful listen from beginning to end. And the kids are gonna dig it too.
