AUSTIN BOOGIE CREW RECORDS (ABC) is an independent music label specializing in modern funk, a slightly underground genre that shares its DNA with a lot of big artists like Anderson .Paak, Bruno Mars, and Tuxedo. Founded in Texas in 2014, ABC RECORDS is on a mission to showcase the breadth of new music inspired by 1980’s boogie, the synth-heavy sound that has remained influential since its inception, and has reemerged in a big way over the last decade.

The artists highlighted on the ABC roster are known for their ability to intertwine classic funk sounds with a myriad of other genres, including R&B, electronic, hip-hop, and even indie. A new compilation CD showcasing the diverse talents of the ABC RECORDS crew, 5 YEARS OF MODERN FUNK, released on March 27, 2020. The CD is an impressive collection of amazing artists that bridge generations, from modern funk heavy hitters like XL Middleton, to legends of the first boogie wave such as B & The Family (whose front man Brian Morgan played guitar on “Rappers Delight” back in ‘79).

Since their official launch, ABC RECORDS has branched out across states and countries to create a diverse catalog of artists from Sweden, Canada, New Orleans, California, New Jersey, and of course Texas. They have released 15 projects from 14 different artists from around the world, and have moved 7,500 Vinyl records in the process.

The 5 YEARS OF MODERN FUNK compilation will appeal to fans of modern funk and electronic beats alike, and in addition to XL Middleton and B & The Family features tracks from an array of artists with their own distinct vibe including Diamond Ortiz, Solar Shield, Rojai, Trailer Limon, Starship Connection, Lowmac, Computa Games, Moniquea, Jonny Tobin, and Spence. Previously these tracks were all released separately; this is the first chance to get a great sampling of the ABC RECORDS catalog in physical form with this limited CD run.

Get familiar with the ABC sound!

Belgium Review (translated): THE FOLSOM PROJECT “THE WOLF & THE SKULL”

rootstime.be

Translated to English:

THE FOLSOM PROJECT – THE WOLF & THE SKULL

Composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Romsam Malpica presents his music under the pseudonym “The Folsom Project”. He has just released his concept album and debut album “The Wolf & The Skull”, an album with 15 cinematic music scores in which genres such as orchestral rock, psychedelic music and trip hop are mixed together in a masterful way.

Romsam Malpica has split the fifteen tracks into five episodes to which other compositions have been added. Songs can be heard on this album in the tracks “The Wolf & The Woods”, “Ali”, “Iceland”, “The Lady In White” and “Just A Boy”. Romsam Malpica was helped by Brandy Los to write the lyrics to those songs.

In addition, we also get completely instrumental soundscapes that could be placed under some exciting film. Then we are talking about tracks like “Awaken”, first single “Dr. Schmidth ”, second single“ Iceland ”(see video),“ The Red Room ”, the majestic“ The Storm Is Coming ”,“ The Wolf ”,“ Ballad Of The Death ”and“ Year Zero ”.

In its genre it is undoubtedly a very professionally made album with a strong orchestration and dark, intriguing and exciting music that, as said before, should belong best and thrive on the soundtrack of some (horror) movie or mysterious thriller.

 

 

Get a taste of the cinematic audiovisual experience provided by THE FOLSOM PROJECT and the debut album THE WOLF & THE SKULL.

NASTY HIGH
Where The River Runs
Absorbing Recordings

Och, I’ve only gone and done myself a mischief.

See I’m no the same fella that used to nip doon the Mayfair in Newcastle on a Saturday if there was nothing doing in Edinburgh. Because that was decades ago. But Nasty High (briefly) made me feel like a youngster again.

So, apart from my knee giving way under me whilst I threw some eighties shapes, this is an absolute belter.

It’s the second album from the Nottingham based band and I’m certainly keen on hearing the first one if this is anything to go by. There are some delicious melodies, plenty of cranking riffs, hooks galore and singalong choruses. All of which are, officially, very good things. If this were America and it was 1987 this would…
