Our favourite Glaswegian double-act Shaka Loves You have been keeping themselves as busy as ever. Firstly, they’ve released their brand new Loose Joints 002, which is their EP series dedicated to the kind of Funk and Disco music that helps free up the limbs to create shapes and moves you never knew existed. Onboard volume 2 is a much fresher feeling and uptempo Disco re-edit of This Feelin’ by Frank Hooker & Positive People and following that is one of the funkiest jams you’re ever likely to hear as the guys work their magic on The Bump by the Commodores. Essential cuts if ever there was any!
Buy Loose Joints 002 here on Bandcamp.
