| V.A. Pulp Fusion Harmless 1xCD, 2xLP |
"It ain't where you're from,
it's where you're at" seems like the ideal maxi at this end
of the century.
You've arrived here at Pulp Fusion. You could have been anywhere
until now. A dusted brother into the Chemical's remodelling of
old-skool electro and hip hop history; a head into the remote
drifting groove of Mo'Wax; an unashamed jazz-funker who remembers
the Lace Lady and Royalty Ballroom; a hip hop homie hunting down
a break; someone dissolved in Acid Jazz who has been trying,
vainly, to put his elements back into more sensible order since.
Or maybe you snatched the collection from the jaws of your pet
pooch and don't have a clue how the little devil came to have it
between his teeth anyway.
Whatever: you're in for a real treat - canine gnasher marks
permitting. You're at, not from. The grooves are here. The jazz
is here. History, mystery and even a little tragedy is here. And
if you've spilled blood trying to find copies of these tunes
before now, than that's just Pulp Fusion.
Pulp Fusion offers a world of jazz beyond the critics. Where the
groove rates higher than any other consideration. It's people's
music; beats to move butts, not to intellectualise. You'll also
find a two step classic or two, basslines to die for and a heap
of samples that rappers have ridden for years, a sidelong look at
a lump of legendary soul and all the beats you can cope with.
Tot zover de opener van Pulp
Fusion. Pure seventies weed-head raw funk & jazz to go. Check
it out !
