The Reason / When The Funk Hits The Fan – King Britt Presents Sylk 130 – LP – Pre Owned Vinyl (Arrives in 14days)

King Britt’s Sylk 130 project stands as a love letter to Philadelphia’s rich musical legacy, and ‘The Reason / When The Funk Hits The Fan’ captures that affectionate homage with rare finesse. Britt, a visionary DJ and producer, seamlessly knits together the warmth of 1970s soul with the crisp innovation of late-90s electronic music. These tracks pulse with analog synths, live instrumentation, and collaborative vocals, inviting listeners into a vivid soundscape where past and future converse. Particularly striking is the way Britt honors the city’s deep-rooted funk traditions, while reimagining them for a new generation of crate-diggers and audiophiles. The grooves are thoughtful yet infectious—layered with jazz-inflected keys, supple basslines, and percussive flourishes that reward attentive listening. This release isn’t just a dancefloor statement; it’s a cultural artifact, chronicling a moment when electronic and soul music found common ground in the hands of an artist with both reverence and daring. For collectors, this album is more than a snapshot of its era; it’s a testament to the enduring power of musical cross-pollination, and an essential addition for anyone seeking to trace the lineage of modern groove.
