Various Artists - Funk Against Fascism by tOtALcULt
"Funk Against Fascism features both grizzled commandos like Fort Knox Five and Badboe as well as young guns like Ewan Hoozami and Totalcult himself. You also get an array of funky artillery covering all angles from the dub-breaks of Timothy Wisdom, to the p-funky grooves of Totalcult, to Ewan Hoozami’s ghetto funk ‘Manhattan Project’ Boob Job. And if that’s not enough to persuade you to get your money out, you’re either in the EDL or tighter than a Tory government in a recession."

Many thanks to my good friends over at the wonderful netlabel Fwonk* for featuring this release on their excellent blog.
On 25th October, the mighty MotherChip crew let me take over the airwaves on their Space Invader Radio show to promote the album. If you missed the show you're a crazy fool, but you can still listen on the player below. And when you've listened, why not head over to their Facebook page and show them some love, or follow them like a dirty stalker on Twitter.
Big thanks to Mixcloud for adding this show to their 'Recommended' list and showing us some Twitterlove this week! Your support is much appreciated!

Various Artists - Funk Against Fascism by tOtALcULt
'Funk Against Fascism' is a charity compilation raising money for 'Love Music, Hate Racism'. Artists from Birmingham to Brazil have come together to create an eclectic album representing the broad spectrum of breakbeat sounds, from chilled out funky hip-hop to fierce, bassline-driven acid.
Every penny of the artists' and label's royalties will go directly to the charity, which supports anti-racist and anti-fascist activity and runs campaigns urging people to vote against fascist candidates in elections.
No other charity celebrates cultural differences like 'Love Music, Hate Racism' and no other music genre revels in sonic diversity more than the breaks scene. It's a match made in heaven.
