A retrospective look at some of Lee Coombs and Thrusts finest moments from as far back as 1997, including the underground Breaks Classic Thrust 1 (the 1st Thrust release). These are some of the tracks that have defined a generation of Tech Funk Clubbers and DJs alike and is also the reason Lee Coombs has gone on to consistently write groundbreaking artist albums and remix some of the biggest acts in the World. These tunes have been hammered with huge results in every great Club across the planet by the Residents who know and love their crowds along with the International Superstar DJ’s that drop in every week.
Not happy with the production techniques of yesterday Lee has painstakingly remixed; re mastered (by Uberzone) or made completely new versions of these Classic tracks making them sound as fresh as when they were first released. Thrust 1 and Thrust 2 have never been available as digital downloads and have been long since deleted as vinyl releases, also there is a brand new version of The Lee Coombs and The Drumattic Twins Remix of Thrust 1 which is currently blowing up Lee’s Dance Floors. Killer underground tunes from D Ramirez, Meat Katie and Paranoid Jack have all been re mastered and there are brand new and fully unreleased tracks by Oscar Goldman (of Thrust 2 fame) and Lee Coombs with the unreleased bomb Thrust 4.

Well that was a tough one, so many good entries from all over the World from as far as Australia, Far East, all over the USA and right across Europe. We had a great response to the competition and knew the parts were getting into some good hands from the start.
We loved how there were so many different takes on Tribal Tension and we want to congratulate everyone of you for your amazing efforts! The winners were judged on a few different categories ranging from Production Technique, Use of the original parts, Mixdown, Does it fit on the label? etc…
Now for the Winners!
1st Place – Phase Animator, Australia
We loved the production with the use of the original parts and it’s pure Tech Funk!
2nd Place – DJ Manaia, Portugal
The use of the percussion is amazing in this mix, DJ Manaia really gave it energy.

This mix grooves beautifully, we love the simplicity and late night feel of it.

This competition was very hard to judge, we want to congratulate every one of the people who entered and hope you had fun doing it.
Many Thanks 🙂

The legendary ‘Freakazoids’ return to the 808 to bring back their own slice of Electro Funk. ‘The Freakazoids’ is the Brainchild of Lee Coombs, Nick Slater and Lanx (later two both of Shades of Rhythm fame) who came together through their love of Old Skool Electro Funk and Hip Hop and released a string of underground records in the late Nineties. After a ten year break and working on other projects the boys have decided to collaborate again and bring back the Funk.
