James Brown represented what may well be the greatest and yet most contradictory
career in the history of pop. His most enduring invention was undoubtedly the
music we now know as funk.
In the mid-sixties, James Brown ignited a pop music revolution with the release
of "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag." He followed through with classics such as "I
Got You", "Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose", "Sex Machine", "Super Bad" and many
more, effectively bringing the whole thing home. Music shaped by melody gave way
to music dominated by rhythm; as dry as it may sound, this in fact marked the
birth of modern dance music and would decisively influence generations of music
lovers.
In 2006, a select group of international producers, musicians and DJs set out to
pay tribute to "Soul Brother Number One." For once "The Hardest Working Man In
Show Business" was able to kick back and let others do the work. The result of
this project is a collection of fascinating remixes of James Brown's classic
hits. The variety of approaches in these reworkings is outstanding; each artist
explores his own personal "James Brown cosmos" and leaves behind an exceptional
musical fingerprint. "It's got to be funky!"
"Sex Machine" was more than just a musical milestone; it manifested something in
our collective consciousness on a par with the first moon landing. Many pop
stars are products of their times, real pop stars embody their times. "He was
ecstatic. He had transformed a single groove into a piece of gold." (Alan M.
Leeds)
Reworking James Brown's classics such as "Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose", "Super
Bad", "Soul Power", etc., as well as "Sex Machine" of course, was definitely a
challenge. For James Brown / "Dynamite X", producers, musicians and DJs like
dZihan & Kamien, ex-UFO founder Toshio Matsuura and many others have each
created their own very personal homage to James Brown and his music.
