Rhythm takes the spot light. James Brown HITS the ONE and music history is altered. The butterfly effect in full swing, birthing hip-hop decades later.
In this pod and this Wednesday's companion Substack post, we trace funk's lineage through the drum breaks that built breakdance, to the samples that got paid once and borrowed forever, and the artists still keeping it funky!
A word salad poem cut from episode excerpts by the podcast producer 🫛
The wordplay. All these things are gradients. A syncopation. The movement. The call and response. What music can even be, what it can do to you. To go even deeper. The rhythm of the beats. It was the time. Upbeats, offbeats. The place that the groove repeats. Incredible mixture of culture, of instrumentation, of regions. Certain components. Quintessential. Get a rise. How cool it that. Funk lives on. Undeniable. Rhythm and groove. An astronaut. Goofy. Note it. An interesting thing.Very satisfying. A countercultural movement. Doing a funky job of it. Big records. The conversation between the analog and the digital. Nowadays. A much bigger scale. A cultural movement. A moment that the groove fully drops in. Hear all of these rhythms. So cool. An important fork. What a beautiful thing. Anchor in. ⚓
