lyric excerpts:
are you ever going to help us, father? 
can’t you hear your sons, your daughters? 
it’s getting harder every single day. it’s a struggle just to keep the faith. 
will you lead your lambs to slaughter?


the story:  

the walls have finally come crashing down on our main character. confronted with real suffering and a feeling of utter helplessness, the emptiness of our most deeply rooted institutions suddenly becomes apparent. they offer no support, no solution. in many ways, “father” is a plea to these longstanding institutions—a cry for help from our main character. but, it is a cry made in vain, for at this point, our hero is well aware that no help is coming.

the word “father” is broadly used. it represents all forms of paternalism—any source to which we look for guidance and assistance. it is biological, sociopolitical, and spiritual paternalism. but our main character finally recognizes this for what it actually is—an absentee father…a golden calf which demands obedience, but offers little in return.

musically, the constant driving beat creates a sense of moving forward, a feeling of no return. the quiet space of each verse acts as the calm before the storm, culminating with the frustrated exclamations—or realizations—of our main character. “do we really have to drink that water?” “will you lead your lambs to slaughter?” each one more severe. these realizations give way to the chaos and confusion of the chorus, though it lacks the traditions and comforts of a typical chorus—there are no repeated phrases, no lyrical pleasantries cycled ad nauseum…just a single question from our main character. 

of course, the journey doesn’t end with the final beat. home is in sight when Father demands: “i want more.” ever demanding and never satisfied, Father’s tantrum provides an opportunity to really let loose musically. the temple truly comes down at this point. the winds are blowing. but our hero has seen and heard enough. free from all pretense, he will complete the last leg of the journey alone.

File Under Disco 15
Daniele Baldelli & DJ Rocca
‘Funkynoizer’

A1: Original Mix
A2: Selvagem Farofa Mix
B1: Pete Herbert & Dicky Trisco Mix
B2: DJ Rocca Boogie Mix

DJ Play: Horse Meat Disco, Optimo, Tensnake, Jacques Renault, Faze Action, Chida, Kiko Navarro, Bonar Bradberry, Fingerman, SHMLSS, Razor n Tape, Yam Who?, Neil Diablo, Labor Of Love and many more.

Legendary DJ Daniele Baldelli, who was resident at the infamous Cosmic Club on Lake Garda and pioneer of the ‘cosmic’ sound, joins forces with Italian maestro DJ Rocca and takes File Under Disco on a journey into outer disco space.

Famous as an extremely eclectic and open-minded DJ, here Baldelli transports this approach to the production of ‘Funknoizer’. And in the hands of a master producer like Rocca the result is a track which fuses Dub, Afro, Disco and electronic elements seamlessly into a tasty alternative discoid brew.

Remix action comes from Brasilian duo Selvagem (big fans of Baldelli) who’s reputation grows and grows with every spin of each record and every release that passes through their talented hands. Here they dress the original in leopard skin pants and throw into into an all night, outdoor carnival party where anything goes.

Next up Pete Herbert & Dicky Trisco take the original on a heads down Disco trip and work it to the bone. Live driving bass, funky clav and a glorious piano line do a wonky waltz with the the Afro dub essentials of the original. 

Finally the man himself DJ Rocca treats us to a very classy disco boogie version that would have rocked legendary parties back in the halcyon days of NYC Disco.
