Here’s Circle Research. Astro the Guillotine and Big Tweeze doin it up lovely. Astro drops an educational hour-long funk set, and rounds off the show with dope 90s hip hop. Normally I wouldn’t post the names of funk/breaks, namely because they’re impossible to identify and I’m certainly not a real head – tbh, I don’t know shit ;) But CKLN’s playlists provide full disclosure on what is usually some seriously guarded trade secrets. So as Tweeze says, all you aspiring producers go and sample these tracks. For the rest of us, just listen. The track that stands out for me on these sets is “Summertime”. Considering the date (June ‘07), this was a real summer banger for me. I honestly had no idea it was The Fresh Prince until I looked it up.
