FRIDAY FREAK

freak_music

Something a little different for this week, inspired by a hot & freaky vibe in the smoke last nite. While the shot above is the Egyptian Lover, the track I’m posting is actually from ‘Uncle Jam’s Army’, though he is on production duties & vocals. Uncle Jam’s Army we’re a West Coast outfit that had both the pharaoh of electro-sleaze and Ice-T pass through their ranks in the early eighties.

It’s got the standard electro format of a couple of versus followed by drawn out instrumental breakdown (think there’s even a 10 minute jam out there) but it’s got a killer groove and a distinctive enough palette to stand out from cuts of the same era.

Doesn’t have quite the same resonance in the daylight hours though: definitely one for sweaty nites & neon lights.
