(From So Happy single; 2021)
Some shit I wasn't expecting to find this morning: a new Cajmere choon based around James Brown's I'm Satisfied which sounds as Dirt McGirt Cajploitation as I'd hoped it would. Crazy visionz, BOOM: Cajmere's alter-ego Green Velvet is the ideal person to bring James Brown's batshit crazy late 70's TV show Future Shock back to life amirite?
Bonus beats: City Girls recently interpolating Percolator got me thinkin' about other Cajmere songs primed for rappers to use. Somebody could REALLY have their wicked way with Let Me Be, though that somebody preferably wouldn't be Kid Cudi, Vic Mensa or Makonnen.

ReplyDeletethis is hard though
I wish there was audio of when I saw him as Green Velvet at Bugged Out in the 90's 😕
ReplyDeleteHave you ever heard Craig Loftis' "Jimmy Go Boom"? probably my favorite chicago house james brown (the JBs "I Feel Alright" from his live at the Apollo pt 2 from 1967) flip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fS6D2J9IFi0
ReplyDeleteused to get played a lot in the mix with a similar remix of "harlem" by Bill Withers, "Mirror Dance" by Afefe Iku, and white label house remixes of natalie cole's cover of michael franks "
Mmmm tasty.
ReplyDeleteNeed to hear that in a mix alongside this new Cajmere and Mic Terror's Juke Them Hoes.
