Prince was a contemporary, who influenced music for almost 35 years, blending funk, soul, rock, pop and more, with creativity and musical ability across all instruments that has rarely been seen.  When Alphio (Alpha Roots) created this super funky track last week to honor the passing of Prince, I asked him if I could join him on a Part II.  Graciously, Alphio agreed and so I added a couple of synth lines to further spice it up a little.  The fantastic drum and congas and guitar lines are Alphio, and I have added the trumpet and low synth, following Alphio's beautiful wah guitar playing.  

If you aren't following Alpha Roots, please make the effort to check out his extensive collection of originals and collaborations:   he is a reggae master, and a very fine percussion player, guitarist and expressive vocalist - while even throwing down some nice keys too:  https://soundcloud.com/alpha-roots 

And here's a link to Alpha's original Jam For Prince https://soundcloud.com/alpha-roots/jam-for-prince-rip in case you haven't yet caught his classic tribute...

We thank you for your generous time listening, for your comments and for your shares.  RIP Prince....

Level One Up.............Music Lover.....

Influenced by decades of music. Favoring deep bass sounds and repetetive patterns, but I like to switch between or mix different genres.
 I'm producing music in a way more than modelling as composing and the results are probably not what you expected. For sure, they are not mainstream :)

Always searching for contributors and collaborations - for contact: send me a msg.

To see my photography look for Herbiejazz on Instagram or search for Herbiejazz on Google.  And a big thumbs up to SoundCloud and the SoundCloud community, and so many friends who have joined me to create.  Thank you all.

I am not a musician but music plays a very important role in my creative life! I am an artist/designer and music is my companion and my muse in the long hours I spend working in my studio! 
I am immensely impressed and grateful for all the talented and inspiring musicians whose work graces this Cloud, and I will always re-post sounds that I love (and will listen to again) - knowing that others will enjoy them!
I feel slightly embarrassed and quite humbled when I receive such graceful messages of thanks from artists whose work I have re-posted - after-all, I am the one who is so inspired by the discovery of your brilliant music!!!
So thank YOU!!!
Jools :)
P.S. If you want to see where the music takes me there is a link to my Portfolio site on Behance below!!! 
NEW!! - Thanks for all the great feed-back on my work! I shall be re-launching with a website (shop & archive) ‘KULT-JE’ in the not too distant future! Meanwhile, examples of past and current work are featured on my Instagram (@joolselphick)
Since my heart op in Jan2021, I have had to deal with taking quite a lot of meds which have interrupted my design work - that and moving to Germany in 2020 - and back in 2021 (due to Covid my business plans stalled!) - SO, slowly getting it together…. hang tight!😊

I have an archive of my work to date on Instagram - @joolselphick
