Funk is a 70's concept, that yuppies like to collect on compact disc re-issues, and precious people shake their rumps to!!!!!!!!***!!!! ohhh man, well you obviously aint ever shaken your rump to any decent funk if you think that! Funk is not a 70s concept ... funk is one big warm deeeeelicious grooove that your bod just slinkslides into, effortlessly, gorgeously ... puts toots in yer boots, sex in your lex and gets you deep down, dirty & funky, lost inside the muscle of the beat ... like no other music can ... the sexxxxiest, naughtiest music on da planet, well if you're into dancin i guess! and dancing is soooo revealing I think, sorts out the lightweights from the hardcore instantly and that ol maxim about 'You can tell what a person's like horizontally by how they .....' is verrry true, methinks! If you aint got da funk .... well .... Aless and I'm off out to "shake my precious rump" to some tonight cos Talvin usually has some funk mixed in with Drum'n'bass and the sounds of the Asian Underground down Anokha and I aint some bleedin yuppie, so there wif knobs on!
