Adam F - Brand New Funk Adam F Reboot Pre-order the 12” Vinyl now on adamf.com – Brand New Funk was sparked from Adam F buying a second hand Fender Rhodes Electric Piano, Vocoder and Clavinet D6 Honer (used by Stevie wonder on 'Superstition). Adam drew inspiration from the vibrant Funk era for his monumental track artists and their film score work such as Lalo Shiffrin, Herbie Hancock and Quincy Jones. "I set the scene in my bedroom studio to compose Brand New Funk with an eerie intro of pads, sound FX and set up my Rhodes and placed the Clavinet on top of the Rhodes with a wah wah pedal to play both instruments simultaneously then pressed record and jammed for about an hour.” Adam F explains. “I wanted to fuse my background of Funk and 70's film soundtracks with the Jungle and emerging drum and bass music I had heard at that time but with an arrangement that wasn't predictable or formulaic." Brand New Funk has become a legacy in the genre, both as a stand out track and a pivotal moment that has influenced other artists and producers to experiment. "It's incredibly humbling to know that my work on Brand New Funk sparked a fusion movement within the jungle/drum and bass scene over the last decade with various bootlegs from new generations of artists and producers. For my reboot of Brand New Funk, I recorded new live funk bass and horns to add a new section in the arrangement not heard in the original version. I am truly humbled and grateful for the support for both the original and the new release on 181 Recordings."
