“Ikebe Shakedown re-creates the kind of vibrant vintage funk that sends crate-digging DJs into spasms of joy…” – TimeOut New York
“Tight, hard charging and “Hard Steppin” — doing their thing with abundant classic stateside instro funk influences, too! It says a lot that these guys are making a welcome entry to the east coast scene…” – Dusty Groove America
“Hard Steppin’…is…the perfect soundtrack for the unwritten Tarantino movie of your imagination, and should be listened to while driving fast, preferably towards danger.” – WNYC
“A must have nugget for fans of Fela Kuti/Africa70, The JB’s, or Antibalas.” – boomkat.com
“The horns…are so deadly” – SteadyBloggin.com
“In a world increasingly dominated by computerised and autotuned so-called “r & b”, where any pretty boy with a high tenor can be considered a great singer, and where raps are not always notable for insightful observation, we need more hard funk like this…” Baudolino (mog.com)
“Sweet, sweet get-down-and-dirty funk” -CollegeNews.com
“Tight funky chords supported with a snappy rhythm section that forces you to get up of your ass.” – Subverse2ten.com
