Howdy folks! I hope you are well on what is a very grey, cold and moody Friday here in Belfast. I had intended to bring you a guest contributor this week, but alas it hasn’t happened. Hopefully in the not too distant future we’ll have one for you (and who knows, maybe even two..) In the meantime you’ll just have to make do with one of my selections…
So, what have I got for you today? Well, I thought I’d go back to a straight out funk banger (it’s what we do best after all). This one comes straight outta NOLA by way of singer/producer Charley (“Chuck”) Simmons. I’ve had this one for a while but haven’t really had an opportunity to play it out as my dj’ing has taken a back seat over recent years due to the pressure of running my business. In that time it has been picked up by a few other djs and has been getting regular spins.
As you can imagine there’s heavy drums (worth a sample?) and wailing vocals (I say vocals, but it’s more like screams). This is a pretty high-tempo/intense workout that is perfect for the more energetic dancefloor! Hope this one gets you groovin’ into your weekend.
