Some NYC Styles

Something real funky for a Friday!



Codek Records is an awesome label straight outta NYC... I don't know how active they are these days, but go back 3 or 4 years and they put out a series of winners, including the Organic Grooves albums and some damn fine compilations. The label specializes in funky-ass tunes with a lot of live instrumentation, drawing from a stable of folks that work together in different combinations under various names. So, I got no idea exactly who Aphratec is, but I can say for sure that this track is a scorcher. Ya got yer breaks, ya got yer congas, ya got yer jazz flute... all that plus a groovy vocal line and Bob's yer uncle...

Aphratec - All Things
Cosmic Rocker - The Discerning Dancefloor



And that is why I own pretty much the entire output of Codek Records. As you can see, the word "organic" is very fitting. Although this isn't Organic Grooves... so that segue kinda sucked. Whatever :P

Have an awesome weekend!
