Brooklyn Funk Essentials

Cactus Festival
Minnewater Park, Bruges (Belgium)

friday 11 July 2008


these are essentialy a dance band, a party band, running from 1993mixing their funk origins with lots of ska and bits of hiphop, mambo, soul and whatever... fishbone without the bones... black eyed peas without the money...

WARNING:
as in italian radio customes the DJ speaks a lot in-between songs. And I mean a lot.. Her purpose is to introduce songs with bits of artist's bio. I edited a few minutes of banters (or more) where I could, where there was no music from the show in the background, but it may gets VERY annoying, and trust me it does. NO EDITING DONE WHERE YOU CAN HEAR MUSIC BEHIND THE RADIO BANTER. Ditto for the station ID's.

note that due to disk space limitations, I will not be able to keep seeding this torrent for a long time - I will abandon the seed in a few days, maybe remove from HD these wav/flac files, and keep only my own CDR. Too many things to upload. In case of seeders going missing, enlist yourself as a leecher and some seeder will come back, and you are anyhow welcome to try and ask for additional torrenting...
FFP included - if uploaded on other trackers or reseed (and you are welcome to do both), please include original infofile. Also, if not satisfied with my offering, you are welcome to remaster/retrack/whatever and repost, but please always clearly state where/who did you have this material from and keep original infofile.
