Similar to jazz - the thread, a funk suggestion thread.. coz we were funking it up yesterday on the chatmm thanks to chimere slot mom.

Great resource (I mentioned yesterday as well) is some of EDMX' podcasts going in depth on history, etc. http://dmxkrew.blogspot.be/ (He describes the podcasts in the blogposts, so for you to figure out which the funky ones are)

He's also posting a bunch of stuff on his new Fresh Up Records blog. http://freshuprecords.blogspot.co.uk/

The Ace Of Clubs - Classid Trax (Classid Trax, 2002, Paperplane)

 

 

Does anybody know which track this one samples? Not the suzanne vega sample but the funk stuff. I can swear I've heard it in a classic funk song before.

 

Edit: Funkadelic - (Not Just) Knee Deep

 

Heard the song in the movie Good Burger!
