British producer and record collector Mr. Thing mines the crates for an experience of upbeat and funky grooves which draw from multiple genres on "Strange Breaks & Mr Thing III: More Rock Funk Soul Jazz & Soundtrack Breaks For Modern Living". This BBE records release puts the music of each of these genres into perspective as Mr. Thing manages to create a sound which flows cohesively from one song to the next as each artis provides their own interpretation of obscure and fast-paced Funk grooves.
