Funkanomics, the sensational newcomer out of south Germany, made themselves a worldwide name with their very own dance-floor devastating breakbeat style and now Roca Records have decided to release some of their most outstanding tracks on one EP.
For this occasion the three guys mixed new versions of already successfully released tracks to new outstanding funky bangers: Circle Kid feat. NineLivesTheCat, How We Rock feat. BadKat. and Mission feat. BadKat. CMC&Silenta contribute a synth-disco version of their hiphop club track How We Rock to top off this second and cracking release by Roca.
Juwee, FxFarmer and Bobby Kudlicz launched the project Funkanomics in late 2006, since then they have been touring extensively in the club scene. They have taken their beat contoured live experience and mixed it with their own funked up style in their productions. A sound that is designed for the dance floor and made up of beautiful crunchy bass lines, coupled with pumping grooves.

All Your Beats 3 kicks things off with Skizzo Franick whose recent remix for Ursula 1000's 'Star Machine' has just been released on Eighteenth Street Lounge records. His contribution to this compilation is 'Sydney Chainsaw Love', an original early 70's style Italo cinemadelica flavoured track that mixes Juno basslines with Sergio Mendes style horns. The song is a kitchen sink of funky flavors all tinged with Skiz's trademark swagger and tasty Fender Rhodes solos, his weapon of choice.
Next up is a classic never before released Tal M. Klein track! 'Listen!' is at its heart and old-fashioned funk breaks pleaser, equal parts Fifth Dimension, Joe Bataan, and Melvin Van Peebles with a mellow bass groove and disco lasers for the kids, it's a fun track to get the party started.
And the icing on the cake, arguably the funkiest man in Utah, Manned Missiles comes correct with an extended mix of his new track 'Chuckles Flavor' - an epic beatmaker's odyysey to the MPC swing. Filled with a generous helping of funky beats and deep grooves, it's all about the strut from start to finish.

A track that started as a collaboration on MySpace between Swiss producer Thony Terence (Pulp Fusion) and UK singer songwriter Carolyn Vox. The track started out as Crazy Funk Drum workout, reminding Carolyn of her Pentecostal Church upbringing where everyone sang from the inner most depths of their SOUL, so "Deeper In My Soul" was born. The track was then passed to Russian producer Valique (Freestyle Records) who totally flipped the track with synth bass and breakbeat funk drums turning the finished product into this dynamite club bomb!
