After a somewhat impressive 2007 in which Man Recordings topped many a DJ chart with the Baile Funk Masters and Funk Mundial series two releases have come in quick succession over the past few weeks.
A wee seven inch collaboration between yon Diplo and Deize Tigrona dropped not seven days ago and Mondays sees the next installment in the Baile Funk Masters series compiled by veteran producer Amazing Clay. Clay started djing back in 1980! And still plays five parties a week now, as well as producing a slew of big artists on the scene, most notably MC Gringo whose recent album recieved nuff plaudits from dedicated Baile Funk followers.
Amazing Clay’s edition of the Baile Funk Master’s series packs a whole eight tracks onto two sides of vinyl, and label boss Daniel Haaksman was splendid enough to hook Slutty Fringe up with a taster track which is two and a bit minutes of typical rio funk madness and a good indicator of what to expect.

Daniel also sent through a DJ mix by Amazing Clay which is 30 minutes of what is popping right now in Rio – no tracklist on this puppy though
