Name: Breakbot - Shades Of Black (Even Funkier Extended Edit) by Even Funkier
Duration: 5 min 15 s
Description: This is the first Breakbot song I ever heard, and still my favourite. But it's always over too quickly! So I've made a straightforward extended edit to draw out the goodness for twice as long :)

Sam's tracks have been played by Purple Disco Machine and Dr Packer and he returns with this edit of Lenny Williams criminally overlooked disco stomper from 79. Beautiful orchestration, massive hooks and a huge chorus. Updated with new drums, bass line, percussion and a more dance-floor friendly arrangement that stays true to the original. Professionally mastered and dance-floor tested.

Bio below written by Gary Steel at  www.audioculture.co.nz

Formed from the chain-smoked ashes of Wellington’s Quincy Conserve, Malcolm Hayman’s unofficial training academy for session and touring pros, The 1860 Band was initially concurrent with the Quincys but eventually killed off its parent group when it proved the more popular of the two with pub patrons.

While Hayman continued with Captain Custard, The 1860 Band – whose name was imaginatively taken from the Lambton Quay tavern at which it held an extended Saturday afternoon residency – kept drinkers happy with a selection of jazz, funk and disco grooves, culminating in the release of their self-titled 1978 debut and swansong, now a very sought-after item by rare groove hunters the world over.

More notable for its stellar line-up than for ongoing musical achievements, the ensemble was led by trombonist and conductor Rodger Fox.

In 2017, Fox told Radio NZ, "we were all playing four nights a week! These places were rammed. In those days, there’d often be a rugby game on in the middle of the afternoon, and then great hordes of people would be coming down Adelaide Road afterwards to drink beer and dance.

That 1860 Band album is really just songs we played every night live.”
However, shortly after the album release, took several members on to the rather more prestigious Rodger Fox Big Band.

Keyboardist Peter Blake went on to write and perform synth-based television theme tunes that etched themselves into the minds of a generation and was an important producer and director for TV's Radio With Pictures in the 1980s. The guitar and bass playing brothers Martin and Rob Winch (formerly of Auckland jazz-fusion band Dr Tree and rock band Tamburlaine, respectively) carved out a niche as successful session guys and jingle writers before their untimely deaths in 2011 and 2012. 

In 2017, 'That’s the Kind of Love I’ve Got for You', the single taken from that increasingly valuable 1978 album (itself a cover of a 1974 single by Californian soul singer Rita Jean Bodine, also later covered by Dusty Springfield), was included by Alan Perrott on the NZ funk collection Heed The Call.

Breakbot - Shades Of Black (Even Funkier Extended Edit)

This is one of my favourite tunes of all time, I discovered it via You Don't Know Me but have gone on to love it even more... but it still makes me feel funny when that bit in the middle kicks in. 

This version is just me moving some bits around again so it fits with what I need

Carrie Lucas - Dance With You (Even Funkier's Carrie On)

My gentle rearrangement of one of Chromeo's best tunes, mostly to get rid of the annoying talking bit

I don't do many mash ups, but here's one that popped into my head ages ago, and I finally managed to get it sounding how I wanted - near enough anyway. 

Songs used are Sister Sledge - You Fooled Around (Joey Negro/ Dave Lee Mix) and Con Funk Shun - Got To Be Enough
