    So my first question is has anyone else heard this CD comp?

    So Here is my challenge make a flat out funky groove compilation that can top one of DJ Abel's comps without using a single song that he has been using on his cd's

    I tried to make my own but I believe it came up short

    Re: Flat out Funky Grooves Compilation Challenge!

    I am from europe so I purchased it here
    I am not sure if you can buy them off his homepage but it should at least tell you where
    now I don't speak good french but maybe someone else here can help you with translating

    anyways the most amazing part of the compilation is how he mixes the songs togehter it adds to the whole experience like

    Hearing Delegation singing Darling and then Melba interupting with her high pitch voice Love's Comin At ya

    its just a bliss

    but anyway how about making a compilation of your own to enter the challenge?
