automat - funk me please

"funk me please" is from the french label karat records compilation and i didn't really know of this label before buying the album. i quite liked the album cover and it also contained tracks by black strobe, chloé & nôze so it deemed interesting. the result is a collection of cracking techno, house and some electro and all with a 80's type lean. "funk me please" lands in the category of the latter and it's no secret that i love this kind of stuff.

a good groove with a bassline that sounds like an tb-303 that is used in it's regular style, i.e. not as the resonant squelchy highpitched acid wiggle. it uses all sorts of bends and warps which remind me of garage as the bottom end really punches in at the bottom frequencies. together with punchy drums, clever drum programming and nice melodics, it's a done deal.
