Tomorrow (25 July 2014) sees the launch of ‘With a Twist’ Volume 1 on Handshakes Records. The album features our Cookie-Dough edit of the 1977 Latin disco-groover ‘Coconut Groove’ by Rice and Bean Orchestra.
At Cookie-Dough HQ we are very excited and proud to be part of this project and would like to thank Handshakes Records and all the artists who have contributed.
The album is a compilation of re-edits and re-rubs carefully selected by Funk Hunk (aka Rob from Denver) who is new label boss of the underground Handshakes Label. Go grab yourself a copy of the album, exclusively available at Juno Download.

All re-edit labels have their own twist on things and Handshakes’ thing is classic funk. After messing around with singles for a while, they’ve bitten the bullet and delivered a long player. It’s been worth the wait too as there’s a whopping 19 tracks to choose from featuring a mix of names both familiar and new. Highlights include the touchy-feely throb of “Groove On (IMFROMULL edit)”, the grey leather slip on electro-funk of “You Wanna Get Up (Dr Packer Funkout)” and the raw, slap-bass heaven of Jam Master’s “Party Lights”.
