Can turn naughty
Noooo never any mobbing on here. Fucking lol.
maybe not, but I was gonna say it made me think of the reams of boring British blues rock from the late 60sThey weren't blues purists
thx for that tag btw whoever wrote it, nuff love
it's more in the vibes ain't it than direct sonics, afrofuturist dance (or danceable) musicI must admit I can't really hear the P-funk element
I think I do hear the p funk in Detroit techno. But what confuses me more is the idea that it's the heir to jazz. "Jazz is the teacher" and all that. I really don't hear any jazz in most Detroit techno, except really overtly jazz/techno fusion stuff like galaxy 2 galaxy. The rest of it...I dunno it's a cool thing to say, jazz is the teacher, but is it really true?Talking of which, although I love the quote about Parliament-Funkadelic and Kraftwerk stuck in an elevator with only a sequencer to keep them amused as much as anyone, I must admit I can't really hear the P-funk element. The way Bernie Worrell used keyboards, the synth-bass on the later P-funk stuff - it feels very different from the Detroit sound.
I'm totally open to the possibility that I'm missing something here. I don't have any sense of music theory. But rhythmatically, how is it similar to jazz?Harmonically and rhythmically, jazz is very present in Detroit techno.
