Description:
“Calling The Shots” captures the heavy, cinematic funk that made The Mighty Mocambos one of Europe’s leading modern funk outfits. Built around a muscular rhythm section, searing horns, and crisp drum breaks, the track nods to 1970s blaxploitation themes while maintaining a contemporary edge. It’s a track tailor-made for both dancefloors and DJs looking for head-nodding grooves.
The single reinforced The Mighty Mocambos’ reputation as torchbearers of authentic funk in the 21st century. Its break-driven production and analog warmth made it a go-to in funk compilations and modern breakbeat mixes, and it’s frequently compared to early Dap-Kings and Menahan Street Band releases.
