MCKENZIE & GARDINER recommends:
We love NICKEE B! He's an 80's purist and boogie funk pioneer that authentically creates a classic minimalist keyboard-driven sound with memorable melodies and catchy hooks. An album with no skips !

The debut EP from super talented new UK singer/songwriter LYNDA DAWN is supersmooth soulsonics that sooth. "Fonk Street" is our jam whilst "Theme For ChaCha" is ethereal chill.

BUSCRATES is a modern funk pioneer from time. Congrats on this stellar debut album. Every track is worth a deep dive. I love the space left for the grooves n hooks. Onwards and funkwards my friend !

Party Tonight / Give it up

supported by 14 fans who also own “Hold On Tight 1983”
This nostalgic boogie maxi from the UK funk legend flew under the radar for some selectors. Committed to the underground funk sound, Nickee B helps bring that cool and casual sound into the present. The funk still has something to say, it's here to stay baby!
