Description : For Funks Sake, as I recover from O I put together some jazz-Funk in the style that I know. 60 tracks, very intricate sounds. There were no limits that I imposed on myself for this one.

Steven! Youve put all the notable funk ingredients for this solid and enjoyable work here. Drums and that thumping bass is whats up! The section starting at about 3:22 is scandalous funk. You know the head bobbing kind LOL. Really great work here. Gotta drop that FAVE! Peace.

I love the duality of this track. The "separate" entities wrapped in one. Love it!

Hey Buddy - nice groove here - I like that kind of minimalist industrial start and how it gets a little more funky as it goes along and love way you have 'orchestrated' (not literally) the transitions. Rich and exotic textures and instrumentation a head busting beat. Hope you have made a full recovery - I had a lingering cough for a month post covid ... ughh ... though good to make music when you dont feel like doing anything else hey : )

Thanks, Mate, starting to recover, my sense of taste and smell came back yesterday. Still feel awful though. 2weeks and the cough continues so I have that to look forwards to.

Hope you're feeling better. Kick ass track, loving that bass in the funky section at the end. Also enjoyed your run down to CCC on the evolution of hip
hop, you're a scholar and a musician. I love that sort of history.

Thanks, Mate. Slowly recovering. Music history is important. you can't know where you are going until you understand where you have been.

I'm sure there is a joke that starts with "how many bassists does it take to _______ ?

That "sour note" in the bassline that starts at 3:11 is a bit risky, but I think is paid off.

Nice double bass ad 4:07, and more later, totally unexpected.

Good track, nice departure from the house.

So this guy Rhys Chatham influences me. He is a serious music
composer This, tune was a Post Minimalist tune that used 100 guitars.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUKF_K3vNeE
It uses modern rock instruments as its basis.
I like that idea, so I used a few fewer bass guitars than a 100, but quite a few in the end. I wanted it to be a fully enveloping tune in the beginning and then sort itself out by the middle by minimalizing, then building back subtle arrangements to explain the basslines. Double bass drums to break up the simple yet pounding snare. From Fog to Clarity to Function would describe the song in my ears.

For funk sake funny description.
You know I'm not really familiar with funk but I like it so far it's really upbeat. It's almost like trance and Hip-Hop mix together I like it

Early funk is the grandfather of hip hop mate, check out some James Brown and some parliament. Later funk gets electronic, Cameo, Prince, Zap. Ohio Players. I wouldn't say this tune chants trance per say,but is more a mess of electronic sounds. That electro-funk sound melded with German electronic (Kraftwerk) spawned Detroit techno and the early rappers like Afrika Bambaataa. Only When the Ensonic Sampler was born did artists realize they could sample the early funk, and Hip-Hop was born. Thats why you hear all of those elements in this tune.
