2. I Need You
3. Over You
4. Road Runner

Release Info

J&M Brothers make their return to Salted with a healthy dose of funk flavored grooves and some deep jams, veering away just a little bit from the standard formula and favoring a more live and bouncy approach, this EP takes us back to simply enjoying music for how it makes us feel, as well as making us dance.

“Bigger Funk” dives into a straight up feel good 90′s funk territory, big bouncy beats pave the way while warm chords, horn hits and funky vocal snippets keep things moving along.

“Lets Do It” has a deep chunky dance-floor hypnotic feel with a steady groove and layers of cool keyboard melodies and organ stabs.

“Over You” is a deeper blues joint with a smooth and soulful yet haunting vocal hook and a laid back feel to it.

“Road Runner” gets back to the cool funk sounds with its rockin live drums and steady yet subtle elements all building up throughout this booty-shaking boogie provoking little jam.
