UPDATE
Sorry guys- looks like the fun police have decided that, despite it being a mix that promotes the music and half of the stuff on here being hard to find anyway, that we cannot share! Will try 'n' re-up but likely it won't stay up for long!

SoulNRnB's Gems - The 00's

Great Jazz Funk mix from Grizz earlier this week, lets finish off the week with one of my Gems mixes thats looking back on the soulful tunes released last decade.

Great music from the likes of Trina Broussard, Debra Killings, Dionne Farris (Whose released a new mixtape I hear....so thats where shes been!), Dwele and much more rare and hard to find tunes.

Have a wonderful weekend, Grizz will be back soon and I will return with a Street Sounds mix of the highest order......really....dont miss it.

Another SoulNRnB White Label

Enjoy, Grizz back next week.

DJ Grizz- New Funk Special, The Baker Brothers

Evening mixtapers and as the week and the UK summer draw to a close its time for another New Funk installment, this week ten top tunes from The Baker Brothers band.

Now I know recent New Funk mixes have met with the wrath of the 'Copyright Police' but a plea if if I may...! All the music on this site, old and new, is in mix form, put there from our own collections to be enjoyed by like minded Soul lovers. If my experience is right the music lovers/crate diggers/beat collecters who frequent here are very likely to go out and source an original, full copy of the stuff they really like so taking the mix down seems like an own goal to us (and being a West Ham fan I'm familier with those).

Enough soapboxing- on with the music. The Baker Brothers are one of my favourite upfront bands who champion those old Soul/Jazz/Funk grooves we love on this blog. Hailing from the South of England the Brothers can be tracked down gigging round the UK, Europe and Japan and any band that can get the Average White Bands Hamish Stuart to guest on their tracks are OK by me!!

Back to the rare grooves next week after SoulNRnB does his midweek stuff.

SoulNRnB's Street Sounds Sessions 92

Its about time we hade this dude on our cover, been a quality year for him with some great music. Diggs Duke's "Nine Winning Wives" features on this mix, check out his bandcamp page too (http://diggsduke.bandcamp.com/).

But thats not it. A great remix from the UK's Reel People of an Aaries classic, Neptunes produced Robin Thicke, Talib Kweli collaborates with the great 9th Wonder, the return of Anita Baker. They're the names.

New talent you ask? What about a tune from a GREAT new EP from Joanna Borromeo? Friend of the mixtape Sarasvati with "Gold Scraps"? Plus a shiver down the spine remix by Freddie Joachim of a Chester Gregory tune........and more believe it or not.

Grizz returns after the weekend, Im back next week with another WHITE LABEL.
