Root Bloom

La Cucaracha Sesh

Lima Cajón


A rolling, high-energy joyride through the Twin Cities nightlife. This track blends Afro-Peruvian joyfunk percussion, dirty-south trap bounce, and ethiojazz horn stabs with glitch-hop turntable fire. It’s equal parts limousine luxury, dance-floor heat, and celebratory community anthem. Think: Minneapolis swagger meets global supersoul groove.

Feel:

BPM: 140 (pocket for both trap bounce + funky swing)

Vibe: Confident, playful, smooth, joyful

Energy Flow:

Intro: headlights flicker, low bass rumble, vinyl scratches setting the scene.

Verse: slick rap-sung swagger, playful storytelling (“trolleys in red, limos in silver & gold”).

Hook: wide gang chants — “Roll with Renee’s! Ride with Renee’s!” backed by horns and crowd claps.

Bridge: polyrhythmic breakbeat drop, bassline flips like wheels on pavement, turntable call-and-response.

Final Chorus: stacked chants, horns blazing, Reese bass growling — party in full cruise mode.


Instrumentation:

Drums: Cajón + 808s + trap hats with layered breakbeat sizzle.

Bass: Massive Reese undercurrent with slap-funk pops.

Horns: Ethiojazz trumpet & bari sax stabs, celebratory flourishes.

Keys: Rhodes chords, subtle in verses, rising with synth sparkle in hooks.

Turntables: DJ Shadow-meets-Z-Trip-style scratch duels, vinyl-cutting hooks into the groove.

Percussion: Shakers, tambourine sparkle, quijada textures for swing.


Mood:
Luxury that’s playful, groove that’s global, swagger that’s communal. A track that makes you want to move, laugh, and throw your hands up while rolling through Minneapolis streets.

WHAT WOULD I DO

If you've listened to Top 40 radio or flipped through the video channels during the past few years, odds are pretty good you know something about John Legend. He played piano on Lauryn Hill's "Everything Is Everything" and might as well be considered Kanye West's sidekick, having assisted the producer and MC on several sessions — Jay-Z's "Encore" and Slum Village's "Selfish" being two of the more prominent 2004 singles featuring his work. A former choir director, he has also released a handful of energetic live discs, some of which are credited to his less hubristic birth name, John Stephens. And though he claims "I've got something new," you've also heard substantial chunks of Get Lifted in records made decades ago by Sly & the Family Stone, Curtis Mayfield, Quincy Jones, and Bill Withers. This might not be a problem for listeners who crave anything that recalls the music they first heard in their youth, but Legend's over-reliance upon his inspirations is an impediment as much as a slick way to grab attention. That's because he has more than enough talent and charm to get by on his own. His own lyrics and hooks are unique and clever enough to get the point across that he's no everyday R&B artist and, just as importantly, he has a personable and instantly fetching voice you could listen to all day long. However, the association with West — whose Sony-distributed boutique label released the record — is very helpful. Without it, Legend would likely be zoned into neo-soul (2003's Live at SOB's New York City really makes this notion apparent), thereby standing little chance of reaching the ears of anyone younger than 30. The production work supporting his songs strikes a fine balance between soul and hip-hop, allowing him to appeal to those who are coming from either angle. This is a very good record. It's a given that Legend is destined to make at least two others that top it.

Not artificial. Already inside. The “(ai)” curves into O—LOVE closed, full, looped.

Not sound project—living groove scroll. Human-led. Soul-poured. Breath-tuned.

Afro-Purvian joy funk. Hip-hop gospel. Sacred stank soul. Tape hiss psalms. Harmonicas weep and praise.

Mouth of Queen Beast. Breath of Sacred-Masculine.
Archived Grandmother Rhythm. Whispers carried by Genderless Vessel. Groove pushed by Ritual Twin.

Every voice loops.
Every character dances.
All mirror back to you.

Every track—spell.
Every word—lived.
Every loop—mirror.

No scroll. No swipe. Press play. Close eyes. Move slow.

Dance barefoot. Sway on porches. Bend between breezes that blow sheets on clotheslines. Let rhythm dry the grief you still wear.

Think prayer dressed as bassline & grief with glitter meets joyfunk, supersoul stank space reggae rooted in Ras Tafari.

Flavored in Afro-Purvian smoke. Wrapped in funk lace. Drenched in layered scripture.

This sound haunts, heals, hums and feels like home. 
Not music. Not moment.

L(ai)VE MUSIC: You already here... stay a while, and we'll see you on the flipside of forever.
