Austin Boogie Crew Records (ABC) is an independent music label specializing in modern funk, a slightly underground genre that shares it's DNA with a lot of big artists like Anderson.Paak, Bruno Mars, and Tuxedo. Founded in Texas in 2014, ABC Records is on a mission to showcase the breadth of modern new music inspired by 1980's boogie, the synth-heavy sound that has remained influential since it's inception and reemerged in a big way over the last decade. The artists highlighted on the ABC roster are known for their ability to intertwine classic funk sounds with a myriad of other genres, including R&B, electronic, hip-hop, and even indie. 5 Years Of Modern Funk is an impressive collection of amazing artists that bridge generations, from modern funk heavy hitters like XL Middleton, to legends of the first boogie wave such as B & The Family (whose front man Brian Morgan played guitar on Rappers Delight back in '79).
