Unfold's second release is a selection of classic tunes that Robert Luis (A&R for Tru Thoughts, Unfold and Zebra Traffic) plays at our weekly Saturday club night phonic:hoop (at the Enigma, Ship Street, Brighton). After the success of Mr. Scruff's hugely popular reggae opener, 'phonic:hoop' is a flavour of all that's good at our weekly shindig! Twelve diverse cuts traversing the spectrum from soulful breakbeats through to crazy-arsed ragga and cutting edge UK hip hop, much of it is rarer than the juciest of steaks! The music is best described through our tagline of 'jazzbreakshiphopsoulfunkbeatsounds' as it is always hard to find a single word for the range of styles we support and listen to.
Like all of Unfold's output, this is a compilation rather than a mix so dip in and see why our phonic:hoop club is about playing any record, of any genre, that sounds right at the time!
"Tru Thoughts head honcho and all round beats entertainer Luis takes control this time and delivers a fine mix of tunes and styles." Breakin Point
"A right royal mash-up of funk, soul, hip hop and reggae, with some absolute belters and, surprisingly for a compilation, no duff tracks at all." Muzik
"An excellently selected collection, without a doubt Robert Luis is one of the best selectors in the country." IDJ
"If you like a bit of unpretentious fun seek it out or better still go pay ‘em a visit!" Big Daddy
"Of all the places in the UK with its own vibrant local scene, the one created by Tru Thoughts in their seaside hometown clearly has something special going on. All respect to Rob Luis." The Big Chill
"A high grade selection of dope tunes. A fine Compilation well worth acquiring." Straight No Chaser
