Hard Steppin EP
CD (Item 501848) Colemine, 2009 — Condition: New Copy
Hard Steppin funk and Afro steeped grooves from Ikebe Shakedown – solid stuff from the fertile Brooklyn funk scene – blending hard hitting 70s funk & soul with both stateside and African influences and more measured and slow cooking numbers! The group is young and doesn't take the task of honoring the pioneers of these sounds lightly – but the reverence isn't weighty or overbearing, and it's more about the getting the floorshaking groove spot on – which they do! The slower numbers are just as nice, and this 5 track taster bodes very, very well for Ikebe Shakedown's future. Titles include "Hard Steppin", "The Prisoner", "No Answer", "Afro Fred" and "Up In The Trees". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
