The series of “Papa Jay Unmixed” compilations started back in 2011 with “Chilled Out – Volume 1” (unsurprisingly a collection of some nice downtempo and chill-out tracks collected over the years). The creation of these albums/compilations/radioshows/whatever was fun and the series expanded in various directions. Up to now (2020 started a few days ago) there are 14 compilations (and more to come…) featuring downtempo music, dubs and all sorts of grooves and funky breaks.
This compilation is the first edition of the latter. “Grooves – Volume 1” was released back in 2012 and is featuring funky grooves and breaks by Kraak & Smaak, The Menheads, Skeewiff, Fort Knox Five, Torpedo Boyz, Chris Joss, and many more. I also included some rare soul grooves by artists like Joe Bataan and Eddie Bo.
