Welcome to this week’s Too Funk Tuesday, not as good as Friday but way better than Monday. Check out some of the dance game’s top tracks in today’s selection. Enjoy!
Para One & The South African Youth Choir – Elevation (Boston Bun Kickless Remix)
Big, big fan of Boston Bun and the whole Ed Banger crew (Where did Breakbot go??), and this track is a vivid reason why. Soul vocals on piano-ridden melody, the catchy vocals bring you up while the kickless drop pulls you into a deep groove. Awesome sound, unique and experimental, Boston Bun is always dropping something innovative.

Flush (Aeroplane) — Come Back Baby
Pulled from Aeroplane’s description, “Flush is a new project I started in order to release all edits and reworks I do on planes and in airport lounges. It will be focused on House Music from the early days. Often sample-based but not always, it’s a mixture of Chicago House and French Touch a la Crydamoure. Initially the plan was to just put these out on the internet, but the people at Strictly Rhythm thought the first song “Come Back Baby” was good enough to release.” From the man himself….

Skee-Lo – I Wish (San Holo Remix)
Skee-Lo was always an OG who knew what it was like to keep it real, especially with this classic. San Holo does him justice by giving him a funky, trapped out synth-heavy, bass-bumpin mix that is SO fresh. Keeping the light and uptempo feel of the original, it takes a melodic twist on the breakdown…a must listen!

Le Visiteur & Jova Radevska – New Way To Be Happy (Mitchell Southam Remix)
A truly awesome original is given a tropical makeover by Mitchell Southam and is easily one of the freshest tracks dropped this summer. Keeping the soothing vibe that permeates the original, Southam gives this song a sunny feel with Kygo-esque synths and a chill, sensual bassline. Not a huge fan of teasers, but this is worth it…
