Pentru cei care nu cunosc prea multe amanunte e bine de stiut ca miscare Brit Funk a inceput in Londra, in anii ’70, perioada in care stilul disco era depasit, iar cluburile se aflau in cautate de ceva nou. Ca sursa de inspiratie pentru Brit Funk au fost folosite elemente din jazz, funk si soul, la care se adauga un bass proeminent si un tempo ridicat.
Compilatia "Backstreet Brit Funk" ofera pe cele doua discuri o istorie audio a acestui gen al muzicii electronice, cu piese de la Freeze, The Warriors, Mirage si Surface Noise, multe dintre ele fiiind reeditate de Joy Negro, special pentru acest album mixat.
