Cookin' On 3 Burners - This Girl / Four 'N Twenty

Genre: Funk / Soul / Modern Breaks
Year Released: 2009

Description:

Australian funk trio Cookin’ On 3 Burners delivered a modern classic with this 7″: the instantly recognisable “This Girl,”. The track is a deep-funk stomper, anchored by raw drums, stabbing organ chords, and a soulful vocal performance by Kylie Auldist.

Flip the record over, and “Four ’N Twenty” delivers a gritty instrumental groove — a hard-hitting drum-and-organ workout that channels the spirit of ’60s and ’70s funk 45s. Its break-heavy composition has made it a favourite for modern beatmakers and DJs chasing authentic live-band funk texture.

A modern release with vintage soul, the single became one of the rare 21st-century 45s to enter the breakbeat canon.
