FLAP012:
Corduroy Mavericks
"Hot Off The Griddle EP"

A1. Good Thang
A2. Break A Dawn
B1. Lean Cuisine
B2. Open Your Eyes ft. C-Roc

Have you ever been to Kentucky? Well neither has Flapjack Records, until now that is...I am proud to present bourbon country's finest brewmeisters the Corduroy Mavericks.  These fine corn fed gentlemen got up quite early but stayed up genuinely late to bring us their new creation, a case of assorted bottles entitled "Hot Off The Griddle EP".

In this box of which I hope lands in your box so to speak is a fine specimen known as "Good Thang".  Tingly rich on the tongue with its chunky beats, it goes down smooth over its deep groove and unmistakably recognizable vocal a la De La Soul and Chaka Khan.  Don't be fooled by imposter brands, as nothing rocks the floor quite like a sip of this "Good Thang".

The "Break A Dawn" bottle is deep amber color and slightly smoky, oaky taste is a classic among the Flapjack Records repertoire and re-mastered to premium quality for the "Hot Off The Griddle EP".  Nothing better than reviving a classic Corduroy Mavericks jam and getting drunk with an old friend.  This tune is well complimented by a fine cigar.

"Lean Cuisine" is a fine bottle made of at least 51% grain mash, but remains 100% a smooth dance floor jam. With hints of rich mahogany, smooth saxophone, and a walking bass line, this smooth Kentucky jazz joint kicks up the dust in the dance hall.  Reminiscent of the smoother tastes of the Midland UK house grooves, this tune satisfies a worldly thirst with its stateside bottling.

The last bottle is a pungent but satisfying "Open Your Eyes" which features C-Roc's spicy saxophone swirls.  There is a little bit of a Latin flavor happening in this bottle of business which is a bit far-fetched for Kentucky bourbon, but you've got to take things to a different level when you are knee deep in a brew vat, have to piss like a race horse, and you can't get your rubber pants off.  Don't let that deter you from the tracks unique flavor and the overall dance floor appeal of the "Hot Off The Griddle EP" brought to you by Kentucky's finest, the Corduroy Mavericks.

Flapjack Records Presents
"The 4 Basic Food Groups"


A1. Bryan Jones - Low Flow
A2. Arco - First Time
B1. d-T3ch - Give & Take
B2. Forrest Avery & Derty D - The Perfect Beat


OK boys n girls, it's time to educated about Flapjack Records 11th fantastic vinyl release, "The 4 Basic Food Groups". This records should be a staple of every disc jockey diet and house music enthusiasts alike. If your momma didn't teach you about this important physiological phenomenon, then you better grab a copy and pay attention.

The first and most important of the four food groups is flapjacks. A great example of this is in Bryan Jones' flapjackin jam "Low Flow". The beats are as thick with butter milk and the bass is fluffy and melts in your ears. You should listen to this bit every morning with breakfast and wash it down with a tall cup of aural syrup.

The second food group and a perfect complement to the first is syrup. Czech Republic's Arco gives us a sugery delight entitled "First Time", which can be poured or spread over just about everything from toast and flapjacks to spaghetti noodles. This tune has a nice and deep brown maple sound that like syrupy goodness, sweetens up every mix.

The third basic food group is eggs, everyone's favorite baby animal embryo treat. Melbourne, Australia's house mopper d-T3ch, plucked the perfect egg from his prized chicken with his spoken word groove "Give & Take". In this smooth bumpin scenario, the chicken gives the egg, and d-T3ch takes it and whips it up into a wonder house omelet.

The last but certainly not the least of the 4 basic food groups is the bacon. Bacon just makes everything better. It the best source of protein in a house disc jockey diet. It makes for longer and more skillfully performed DJ sets. Oh and did I mention how super tasty it is? Oregon's Forrest Avery & Derty D definitely take the bacon with their super fried, crispy, salty smash hit "The Perfect Beat". This tune does to a club what bacon does to your heart...it clogs dance floors. You can't escape its tantalizing allure. So now that you are all edumacated, make sure you grab an extra copy or two of this super grooving and well informing record to pass on the good message to others.
