Browse by Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)


Artist: MOSSA
Title: Scat Attack
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 002EP
"Montreal-based Mossa's instrumental background can be clearly heard in his electronic compositions. After DJ-ing since 1999, Mossa (aka Jeremy Petrus) ventures into producing, combining his many styles to create a body of work which is at times minimalist, amusing, and rarely symmetrical. Using an assortment of plastic and static sounds collected here and there, he arranges an eclectic bouquet of rhythm and kick. Mossa is also dedicated to releasing an uncompromising style in house music and minimal techno with his record label, Complot Records. He released on labels like Cynosure, Mo's Ferry, Mutek or Orac and has been remixed by supreme producers like Mike Shannon, John Tejada and Ark. One of his milestones is his forthcoming debut album Some Eat It Raw on Circus Company -- an amazing collection of samples and beats. Scat Attack, his first (and definitely not last) 12" for Floppy Funk, is again a masterpiece of amusing antistatic microfunk."


Artist: SHAKA
Title: Some Kind Of...
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 003EP
"After the much-appreciated first two Floppy Funk releases, here's another example of Floppy's funk and deepness! Some Kind Of... from Shaka is a diverse, old schoolish yet modern techno record. A killer record we think! The A-side offers the club groover 'First One' and the beautiful deep Detroitish 'Heitere Gemüter.' The B-side offers a re-release: 'Erfolgsgeblubber' was released on Morris Audio Citysport a year ago, but has been getting superb feedback (e.g. Steve Bug: 'this is huge!') and we just love this early Warp styled bleeper! Finishing off this well rounded EP, Shaka comes up with some great jazzy electronic trickery called 'Phalonmukka.' Great stuff for open-minded freaks, and well worth checkin' Shaka's upcoming stuff on Revolver and his remix of Pan/Tone's 'Gringo Grinder!'"


Artist: HUGO
Title: Ubiquity
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 004EP
"Hailing from Turin in Italy, Hugo was really young when he had the perception that music is something more than an expression of art. While he was smoking and wondering on his balcony surrounded by the industrial landscapes of Mirafiori blocks, he got his flash of inspiration. After that, classically trained jazz musician Hugo, fell in love with electronic music during the '90s. He founded his own electro-oriented label 'General Elektrik'. Though you can hear Funkadelic, Headhunters and Maceo Parker behind the curtain, Hugo's latest productions reaches what is defined by 'less is more.' Music is not merely the sound, or the perception of sound, but a means by which perception, action and memory are organized. And 'Ubiquity' is funky, electronic, minimal, deep, rough, clubby!"


Artist: EGG
Title: Super Cracker EP
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 005EP
"The Montreal-based duo of producer Guillaume Coutu Dumont (Luci/Chic Miniature) and audio artist Julien Roy (artificial.org) exists at the junction of diverse musical influences. Enveloping listeners in a subversive sonic environment ruled by elasticity and rhythm, Egg serves up aesthetically pleasing hybrid microhouse music that appeals to the head and feet alike. Following the group's acclaimed 2003 debut, Don't Pospone Joy (Mutek_Rec), Egg participated in numerous events and festivals around the world and released on Mutek_Rec and Karat Records. The Super Cracker EP is their latest masterpiece of Canadian styled microhouse featuring a booming remix of top tech-funker Mossa (Mo's Ferry, Circus Company, Morris Audio, Orac)."


Artist: GIBBS, KJ
Title: Messages EP
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 006EP
"Kenneth James Gibson is a man of many personas. [a]pendics.shuffle, The Premature Wig, Eight Frozen Modules or Kenneth James G -- always a surprise and never a let down, he gives us what we want but don't expect! On Mo's Ferry, Adjunct, Orac, Resopal, Proptronix, Friends of Tomorrow...you name it. Currently Ken is living in Echo Park California and producing a ton of music. Minimal techno? Yes! Computer funk? Sure! Avant-garde techno? Well then! Just put the needle on the record and feel the bouncy basslines, freaky sounds and funky rhythms! The Messages EP has it all!"


Artist: CRUZ
Title: Cougas EP
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 007EP
Featuring: Fahone People & Dash Dude remixes. "More beats and basslines! Up and coming Cruz (aka Beni Stöckling) delivers two strong club tracks with fat basslines 'n' bleeps. 'Knusper' is an uplifting track with a dirty piano sound and catchy vocal snippets -- ready to rock! The Fahone People (who are in fact Holger Schneider and Erk Richter from our much loved Hartchef Discos, yeeeah) turn 'Knusper' into a dry shuffling Chicago like rhythm track -- that's what we call minimal! On the B-Side, 'Cougas' is the Cruz trademark again: beats and basslines to make you move! Morris Audio buddy Dash Dude just adds some lovely melodies over the 'Cougas' original version and makes it a clubby funky floppy 4-tracker."


Artist: ELLIS, TOM
Title: 101 Things To Do With a Sandwich Toaster
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 008EP
"With current and upcoming releases on Moon Harbour, Morris/Audio, Frankie, Logistic & Telegraph, Tom Ellis and Leif are back from the Trimsound kitchen with a special triple-layer deep-fill extravaganza of an EP! Tom supplies the main ingredients, kicking things off on the A-side with a deep exploration of syncopated bleeps, beats and basslines exploding into a chunky dancefloor killer half-way through. On the B-side, Tom delivers the slamming funk track 'Trimming,' while Leif scales things down with his minimal, organic 'Cheese Toastie Remix,' bound to get the floor moving!"


Artist: HUGO
Title: Hugoist
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 009EP
"Second fat release from Hugo on Floppy Funk! After his much acclaimed 'Ubitquity' and the fabulous Tongut releases, 'Hugoist' is a 100% pure Hugo style: electronic, minimal, funky, deep, rough and clubby! Yes, we dare to say it's a bit Fuckpony stylee! Four tracks of the new Italian sound hailing from Torino, where Hugo is part of the scene together with mates like Titta. Hugo is also involved in 'Concept,' a contemporary answer to the necessary integration of different media. Concept starts from the music, spreading its contents through various channels like radio, magazines, multimedia and club nights. You can't resist the Hugoist!"


Artist: BYALLO, ALLAND
Title: Dark Tide Disco
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 010EP
"A Los Angeles native now residing in San Francisco, Russian-blooded Alland Byallo has broken into the house scene with his own unique blend of tech funk. Alland's taste, coupled with his research and digging, always instills an undeniable groove and tickles the chin-scratching trainspotting senses -- as on his much acclaimed 'Buckets' on Liebe/Detail or his remix for Claude von Stroke's Dirtybird. The current 'Dark Tide Disco' is a superb rolling club track which keeps a deep feel! Turn to the flip for the Dapayk Remix offering more reduced beats and sounds."


Artist: GUILLAUME & THE COUTU DUMONTS
Title: Boogie Woogui EP (Matt John Rmx)
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 011EP
"Montréal's Guillaume Coutu Dumont doesn't lack for collaborations. He works alongside Julien Roy as Egg, with David Fafard under the Luci moniker, and collaborates with Argentina's Ernesto Ferreyra in Chic Miniature. But now it's time for Guillaume to continue his quest for the ultimate ham bone funk recipe with his solo project: Guillaume & the Coutu Dumonts! A special blend of funk, house, techno, gospel, swing, barbershop quartet and Afro-beat! Boogie Woogui, his second solo output after his Hartchef debut, presents two special tracks of sweet and hypnotic grooves that will make any dancefloor climb a few steps towards a better place. The funky basslines wrapped in warm and soulful blankets of old blues-y samples will seduce even the grumpiest. This 12" is completed by a Matt John remix which keeps the groove steady and focused on one goal: make you all dance, smile and wiggle!"


Artist: DONK BOYS
Title: Sing Along With
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 013EP
"Hot on the heels of their debut EP for Frankie (Cpstyre), the Swedish newcomers Donk Boys aka Thomas Jaldemark and Martin Abrahamsson presents four new hot trax for your favorite label Floppy Funk! 'Mongoponny' shoots off this parade of sing along hits with its haunting rhythm and damaged, yet addictive, rubber-like melody, complete with a low-pitched YEAH sample, it's almost like a soundclash of Claude vonStroke vs M_nus on horse... mental that is. For the sick floors that just can't get enough! Next up is 'Zonky': almost tripping over itself with the booming sub bass, wet blops and suggestive melodic elements, this one should do the trick if you're into more minimal sounds. Moody, but still crazy funky! Flip to B-side for trunkfunk with 'Elephant': starting off with a steady shuffled beat and crisp percussion combined with warped vocal snippets, this one does not wait for anyone! Jumping straight into the mix with the pop-like lead melody, again extremely addictive, like an elephant needing to score a fix from the dealer pig. Not for the faint-hearted! Full on zoo disco action -- video game style! The finishing track is 'Gump Nymix': bringing in the old skool elements of Joey Beltram (Game Form-era), Neil Landstrumm (circa Praline Horse) and Sweden's finest Börft Records, this wonky bit is in its own way the most deranged of the four. Stripped, distorted drums (aah the RZ-1 hihat!) plus a really really stupid bassline that just keeps on going and going and going like a circuit-bent children's toy."


Artist: ELLIS, TOM
Title: Rum Scum
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 014EP
"With releases on Hartchef, Frankie, Moon Harbour, Morris/Audio or Frankie, Tom Ellis is top funk jammer! His Rum Scum release is a special triple layer deep fill extravaganza of an EP! Tom supplies the main ingredients, kicking things off on the A-side with bleeps, beats and basslines exploding into chunky dancefloor fillers. On the B-side, it's fab French producer Skat (well known for his releases on Karat) adding his deep and tricky flavor to 'Rum Scum!' May the funk be with you!"


Artist: ELLIS, TOM
Title: Twaddle EP
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 017EP
"Yes, here he is again: Tom Ellis! The top funk jammer! The guy making the bounciest and sexiest bass lines around! The man keeping the beats and bleeps coming! Tom Ellis represents the sound of Floppy Funk so well, as his tunes are funky, freaky, jackin' yet smooth groovers. With releases on Hartchef, Frankie, Moon Harbour, Morris/Audio or his recent 12" on Minibar, Tom Ellis knows the score. This tribute to the Leeds club night Twaddle is a 4-track chunky dancefloor filler EP."


Artist: JUSSI-PEKKA
Title: Multifeel EP
Label: FLOPPY FUNK (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: FLOPPY 018EP
"Well, it might be frozen up north, but that doesn't stop Jussi-Pekka to keep the jackers coming! Our man from Nokia has a long list of releases, and his first release for Floppy Funk is another cracker. 'Regression' is a magic old school slightly acid house track. 'Depression' is more modern and techno, keeping a deep edge. The 'Regression' remix courtesy of Frankie (the man who keeps jackin and freakin with his Frankie label) is another fine crazy tune to go nuts!"
