Funk Marathon Volume 6




Ok it's time for the 6th and final Funk Marathon. These projects were a pretty lengthy undertaking. The effort has been more than worth it though. Since assembling these compilations back in 2005/2006 they have become sort of like bibles to me. This edition is 8 hours, 21 minutes and has 108 tracks. I did a little volume leveling so if there are any clicks/errors that you hear let me know. I'd pick some favorite tracks here and there but it's hard to do. Favorite sections might be more like it. After you've had a chance to check out volume 6, let me know which one you like best. Here's the tracklist. Paste this megaupload link into a new window to download it.

  5. Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. It's good to know people are checking these out. I guess I called them marathons for a reason, lol.
    Anyone have a favorite volume from the 6 compilations I posted ?
