This mix is a celebration of the edit – where funk, soul, disco, and hip hop get reimagined for today’s dancefloor. We open with Greg Wilson & Ché’s remix of The Sugarhill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” – a fresh, floor-shaking twist on a timeless classic. From there, it’s pure groove: The Reflex lifts Instant Funk to new heights, DJ Fudge adds fire to Sadam Ant, and Dave Lee delivers pure gold with Glenn Jones, Mtume, Harvey Mason, and Gwen McCrae. Ken@Work flips Curtis Mayfield and Tom Browne into modern floor-fillers, keeping the energy alive and kicking. The originals – Tom Browne, Gwen McCrae, Instant Funk, The Sugarhill Gang – built the foundation. The editors – Greg Wilson & Ché, The Reflex, Dave Lee, DJ Fudge, Ken@Work – keep it alive, fresh, and powerful in 2025. This is about groove, respect, and reinvention. Turn it up and celebrate the culture.
