One of my first musical experiences last Friday at Bluedot festival was a sort of pop-up/guerilla disco run by a USAF (?) -helmeted, boiler-suited group in a taped-off area inside one of the bar tents in the main arena. I saw the same group in a couple of other spots throughout the weekend, and fittingly they played the last music I heard at the event.
I stayed for 3 tracks and danced with (without?!) abandon along with only 2 or 3 other punters (plus the group themselves) - to some (white-ish) funk the like of which I've rarely heard (think ACR, T'Heads, GoFour et al). It was a ridiculously small audience considering the 10 deep line of revellers outside the tent for Craig Charles' closing Space Funk set, which from the admittedly brief sample I heard, comprised of the same-old same-old.
Anyhow in trying to investigate the music I danced to I came across this,
the origin of arguably one of the first/best/most immediately recognisable bass lines in rap:
