singles user reporting in, but I also can post albums (although I don't know if this will help these soul&funk threads to finally take off)

The lack of interest in these threads really just shows how narrow Sup Forums's scope of music actually is.
I can't remember the last time I saw a proper reggae thread.

I'm back! I'll talk to you!
Just gonna listen to some of these too.
Any modern faves are you all about the older tunes?
John Reyes
ya'll have a flow or essentials chart?
Ryder Campbell
We're talking 80 years of music and a lot of it singles, thats a LOT of music.
For modern artists though you should check out Daptone Records and Freestyle Music and sites like Kudos Records. Also grab the 3 Craig Charles Funk & Soul Club compilations.
Jaxson Lee
I don't mind modern stuff at all, I'm just more used to 7" which aren't as popular now as they used to be in the past. more bands directly go to the LP format now, and while I'm all for it, I'm also a lazy fucker and often don't feel like fetching links for all tracks and uploading what's missing from youtube
here is what I liked from last year if you're interested
Dogg master - Peace & phunk
The federation of the disco pimp - Inamorata
Calibro 35 - S.P.A.C.E.
Redtenbacher's funkestra - Dr Hypenstein
Coop Deville - Bat funk crazy... in 3D !!!
Lettuce - Crush
George Clinton & Parliament/Funkadelic - Live at the Metropolis
Yo mama's big fat booty band - Funk life
Seven eleven - Back to the source
OctavePussY - Assfunk
and now with a working link
Satellite band - Rejuvenate the fonk :
Parker Brooks
i know, thats why im asking for help. so many singles.
thanks.
Isaac Moore
Sweet, will check out all those I've not heard thanks.
I'm even lazier, most of my older stuff is all random compilations, funk/soul ones and other mixed comp albums like the breaks based Dusty Fingers and Ultimate Breaks & Beats.
Will have to search all these up on Spotify, I cba to use Youtube and bored of downloading music from SLSK, does my head in. Do you find most on youtube?
Jonathan Sanders
nope, but since I've been asked before I'll just copy/paste my answers (it won't be useful if you're looking after recent stuff though)
first of all, you should get to known James Brown's music, which is really a cornerstone. for example, get his Live at the Apollo vol. II, and then listen to some of his 70s releases (Love power peace or The payback for example, and notice the evolution). The Singles boxsets are also great addition, especially volumes 6 to 10, as well as JB's and other Brown's collaborators solo stuff
as for early funk, Sly & the family Stone albums are quite essential, especially Stand and There's a riot goin on. a compilation of Sly's 7" from 1969-70 called I'm just like you was recently released and is also worth of interest
You also have to take a look at the Funkadelic/Parliament galaxy (P funk all stars, Godmoma, Sweat band, Brides of Funkenstein...) and the various offshots that the band members did (Eddie Hazel, Bootsy Collins, Fuzzy Haskins...)
from here, you can venture into the other well known funk bands territory, like EW&F, Mandrill Brass construction or The meters, and into the realm of obscure and forgotten singles and maxis, be it on compilations or original 7"/12"
have fun !
Joshua Edwards
as I try to buy albums in order to support what's left of the old funk scene and the up and coming new generation I'm not sure if they're on the internet. I know some are on bandcamp (Yo mama's big fat booty band, The federation of the disco pimp, Coop Deville and OPY at least, I don't remember for the rest), the others shouldn't be hard to find except maybe the Seven eleven lbum (I don't think dutch funk has a very wide distribution)

Chase Powell
I'm listening but a newfag on this so can't contribute
Sebastian Gonzalez
Will check those out. I used to dig through a lot of Bandcamp and Soundcloud accounts for different genres but there are so many artists on there with the right tags but the worst music it just stopped being worth the effort sorting the wheat from the chaff.
I did like these though, had them bookmarked; tramprecords.bandcamp.com
Just to add my $0.02 to this, also check out Betty Davis, she can't sing but shes funky af
William Wright
hey I have these Feeling nice and Movements comps, but I wasn't aware this label was so active. I'll have to explore this when I get back from work (I can't listen to music while I'm there)
otherwise I do agree, bandcamp is pretty messy with the tagging. I am way more used to work with "traditional" labels when it comes to digging, most of the bandcamp stuff I know was discovered by friends who are way more dedicated than I am

Brayden Scott
Is this the place for Disco?
Joshua Barnes
Neither did I till I just looked desu, last time I did was for their latest Christmas funk albums.
Traditional labels are generally easier for sure, even newer ones like Daptone but its all good discovering those gems.
White and British but I have a soft spot for Joss.

Can you boogie? Boogie woogie?
David Powell
I'm already not much of a big soul guy, but neo soul just doesn't do it to me. I'm probably biased
(and unfair since english isn't my first language) but these new singers all sound like copycats to me, in the tone as in the lyrics I can grasp (when they don't just do covers because they can't write). as a matter of fact I feel the same as this new wave of jazz singers I could witness in recent years. maybe I'm autistic, but how hard is it to just turn your chatterbox down, pick up an instrument and still do something good when countless artists did it well before
any place is a place for disco

Yeah thats fair enough, she does have 5 of her own albums, I just happen to like that cover.
Zachary Mitchell
I mean I'm not an instrumental nazi either, I mostly happen to enjoy more the feelings conveyed by soul music when it doesn't have a voice over it, like the song Think by Curtis Myfield or some of the instrumental albums Willie Mitchell made. but to each his own, and even more since most backing bands have some releases on their own or instrumental sides offered on the singer 7"s (like the Dap kings with Nervous like me or that Lee Fields release which name I don't remember they play on)

never heard of this, I'll listen to it when I get home. good stuff came out from Yugoslavia when it comes to jazz, so I'm pretty confident in their ability to make groovy stuff

are these remixes or edits or something ? it sounds quite out of place for something from 2015

Zachary Gonzalez
Just checked Discogs, they're edits, my bad
Side A is an edit of Joe Simon's Love Vibration
Side B is an edit of Carl Bean's I Was Born This Way
Ayden Perry
it's not that edits are inherently bad, but at least when it's a remix you know someone worked on the master tapes to offer a brand new take, while most editing consists in chopping the track and put it back together with pretty useless additions

Looking for anything that sounds like the song Summer Madness off Light of Worlds by Kool & The Gang. I just can't get this song out of my head and it sounds like nothing else K&G have recorded.
