Search - Dego :: 4hero ...Mixing

2008 collection, the third installment in this ongoing series of 'mixtapes' by well known DJs, producers and Dance artists. On Mixing, 4hero investigate their musical influences; past, present and future. Things start off on a funky note with Bootsy Collins (who played earlier on in his career in James Brown's band) and the infectious P-funk of 'Fat Cat'. Detroit Hip Hop is covered with the incredible 'Game Over' and the inimitable J Dilla's 'Over The Breaks', taken from his legendary posthumous album The Shining. Then it's back in time with the Electronic music of composer and inventor Raymond Scott, regarded by many as a major influence for musicians such as Robert Moog, Aphex Twin and Boards of Canada. This childish atmosphere is broken with the Disco-Funk of 'High Noon' by Two Sisters from the Carrere imprint of 1983, made of analogue drum beats and keyboard sounds. This is followed nicely with the soulful voice of Face and the break beats of 'Act Like All Is Right'. Sonar Kollective. 2008.
