Corky 'Traxman' Strong
Funkbomb Reworx Vol. 2
About this item
Chicago maestro Corky Strong returns with volume 2 of his "Funkbombs Reworx" - injecting some Chi-town bump n shuffle into six bona fide dancefloor classics.
Now don't go rolling your eyes. First thing that strikes here is the pressing. These cuts kick, thud and sizzle in all the right places, mastered with all the finesse of some lost US deep house classic - Chicago vinyl engineering of the highest quality.
On the edit Corky is miles ahead of the pack - gifting these nightclub staples with Windy City style and charisma throughout. Incessant wiggle, barnstomping energy, almost spiritual engagement with the elements - perfectly dissected and re-arranged by the Traxman. Not as wild as Jamal Moss' "Members Only" series, a bit cleaner round the edges than Theo Parrish's "Ugly Edits" collection; but with equal levels of ingenuity and creativity. Instant party starters you simply do not want to miss.
