To celebrate his 1,000th post on Flea Market Funk, DJ Prestige drops an all-45s mix titled The Funk Trip. Says, Prestige:
For today’s mix, the 48th here (well into the 60′s with the mixcloud stuff), I wanted to take you on a little Funk Trip. I don’t have so many Psych records, but I have included a few fuzzy Funk records as well as some newer Funk 45s that I have been digging and dug up as of late. These would include newer labels such as Colemine, Kept, Kay-Dee, Music With Soul, Funk Night Records, and Bloodshot mixed right along side older labels like today, Ebony Sounds, Mutt, Brownstone, RCA, Diamond Jim Recordings, Zodiac, and Hi. Some of this stuff you may be aware of, some of it you may not be aware of, but at the end of the mix, there are 14 strong 45s that are definitely Flea Market Funk approved. The mix was done live (as always), in one take, with a few goodies dropped in for fun. You may recognize the voice at the end, Diamond D, who had a nice little nugget of wisdom about digging. Thanks as always for the support, and please enjoy the mix.
