South Florida’s own Rare Groove Selector, The Brass King (BK), must have been doing some serious diggin’ in the crates to put together this classic sounding mix that can best be described as genius. BK cleverly fuses pioneering genres of music from the late 60s and 70s with the soulful drops and high powered poetry of local artists. The music itself is largely Latin-Jazz oriented, however it also includes strong elements of Salsa, African rhythms and American soul – showing how musicians from different music persuasions were at that time undeniably influencing each other. BK blends it all in perfect harmony. Definite ear catchers are the especially soulful vocals of Big Brooklyn Red over Quincy Jones’ Tell Me A Bedtime Story and Pop-Reggae artist Calibe flowing over Gato Barbieri’s Fireflies. Also refreshing are the high powered rhyming styles of P.O.W. (Power of Words) over Eddie Palmieri’s Condiciones Que Existe and female emcee Inteseed over Cal Tjader’s Solar Heat – both joints back by hard hitting old school breaks. Truly, this mixtape album lives up to its potential as it bridges gaps between generations and cultures and ensures a continuation for the love of old school Hip Hop foundation music for years to come – giving hope for the future!
