To celebrate our 25th anniversary, Skeg put together this selection of the best new Funk 45s that came out over the last 25 years.

Vintage sounds played in a new way by artists who maybe only got to know about Funk from checking all the samples used by Hip-Hop artists. Skeg has gone deep to dig ...
