Dj Mouss - Funk Connection FUNK

If you can guess what I'm about to say, you're probably right. I like to think that I can be eclectic, but I also like to think that I'm not. I like jazz, but I also like F-IRE, hip-hop, punk, experimental rock, folk, funk, soul, pop and dance music. I can't understand how anyone can listen to one particular type of music and not like everything else, and I can't understand how anyone can like something and not like everything else. I like dancing and I like listening to music, and I hate being bored. And I like to go out and listen to live music. So that's about it, as they say.

With its focus on interlocking rhythms and riffs, ‘It’s Your Thing’ saw Coleman masterfully merge the force of funk and the power of jazz, and in doing so, created a new kind of musical hybrid. And with its deeply grooving, hypnotic style, the album felt like a sonic mirror to the feeling of the times. Yet for all the apparent simplicity of the recording, the parts are carefully crafted and the track builds and builds. By the time the closer, ‘It’s Your Thing’, arrives, the listener is already swept up in the swirling, hypnotic energy of the piece. And as the horn riff returns, the listener is left wondering whether they are hearing a live recording or a subtle musical illusion.

Jazz as funk, funk as jazz: the two lexicons entwine and merge so as to lose meaning in one of the great live records of the 1990s. Coleman had already made a splash with his JMT label output yet his playing and writing are more penetrating and focused here. Snappy, stabbing, staccato rhythmic and melodic lines are repeated to trance giving the impression of a giant musical pinball machine on a rotating floor. As well as exerting a decisive influence on anyone from the F-IRE collective to Omar Sosa, Coleman has always managed to reflect something of his times. Here he captured the hyperactivity of the burgeoning Internet age and the brash self-assertion of the hip-hop generation. (KLG)
