Funky House Recommendations June 2012

Review: Upstart producers from Boston J Paul Getto are a duo with a knack for direct, funky house cuts that slide in neatly next to label peers such as DJ Sneak on their new home with Guesthouse. The lead track "3000" is actually a more sensitive cut with plaintive keys, chord progressions and a smooth shuffle, but on the flip things get properly bumpy. "Need More Music" slices up disco in a floor-burning mixture of jacked up beat, pumping bassline and filtered build-up / break downs. Likewise "Stop Messing With My Love" waves its horns loud and proud, keeping the funky guitar licks rolling throughout and the vocals coming in bold and brassy in that jubilant disco-house style.
