the picture gets clear.
care va sa zica, vestitul label ce detine o trupa de funk, nu dispune de-un locsor rezervat stilului. parca am avut o intiativa cu mult timp in urma, da' s-a pierdut, ma rog.. nu obisnuia sa-mi placa
funk-ul, era genul muzical pe care-l toleram o jumatate de ora, dupa care mi se taia. acum in schimb, de vreo doua luni incoace, am cam inceput sa sap adanc dupa fel si fel de chestii. evident, am dat si de bune, si de rele. mai mult de atat, ca-i limpede, am dat de mai multe bune de cat rele, c-asa-i muzica.
Din aceste bune, am uploadat cateva
aici. Music is designed to free your funky mind. I want you hit it and quit it! adica, downloadati si plecati. si-as aprecia daca vi-ati lasa iscalitura p-aici, you funky heads!

A Definition of the Genre
Funk is a very distinct style of music based on R&B that reached its height in popularity from the late 1960s to late 1970s. Its name originated in the 1950s, when "funk" and "funky" were used increasingly as adjectives in the context of soul music -- the meaning being transformed from the original one of a pungent odor to a re-defined meaning of a strong, distinctive groove.
One of the most distinctive features of funk music is the role played by bass guitar. Before soul music, bass was rarely prominent in popular music. Players like the legendary Motown bassist James Jamerson brought bass to the forefront, and funk built on that foundation, with melodic basslines often being the centerpiece of songs. Other noteworthy funk bassists include Bootsy Collins and Larry Graham of Sly & the Family Stone. Graham is often credited with inventing the percussive "slap bass technique," which was further developed by later bassists and became a distictive element of funk.
The stong bassline is primarily what separates Funk from R&B, soul and other forms of music. Melodic basslines often being the centerpiece of songs. Also, compared to the soul music of 1960s, funk typically uses more complex rhythms, while song structures are usually simpler. Often, the structure of a funk song consists of just one or two riffs. The soul dance music of its day, the basic idea of funk was to create as intense a groove as possible.
The Funk genre has lost most of its popularity since the 1970s, but saw a mini-revival in the early 1990s due to the sampling of Funk songs by hip-hop artists.
Examples of popular contemporary funk artists include Soulive and funk pioneer George Clinton, who's still recording new music after more than three decades. Also, many rock bands use a stong funk element in their music, including Primus and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Era de asteptat... Serafime, cand vorbim cu Jamie Foxx? Am vrut cand m-am trezit sa dau drumu la numaratoare, dar m-am razgandit...

hm. hades este, inca, label de hiphop. vestit, mai mult sau mai putin pana acum, depinde pe cine intrebi, insa cu siguranta va capata din ce in ce mai multa expunere de acum inainte; si, daca nu cumva Slang nu a semnat cu hadesu intre timp, nici trupa de funk nu exista printre noi. asta apropo de primul post. varfuri otravite de sageti nu ne strapung. se lovesc si cad neputincioase.
pentru cine vrea funk si nu stie ce sa caute, o idee ar fi sa intre pe pandora.com si sa bage un nume de artist. james brown e o alegere evidenta. de acolo, lasati programu sa-si faca treaba si ce va place bagati la bookmarks si descarcati de pe dc. io asa fac la munca
