‘Established!’ is the new album from RP Boo, his fourth full-length for Planet Mu. In 2013, Mu released his debut ‘Legacy’ – an acclaimed album that put RP on the international music map, acknowledging his unique role in the creation of the Chicago-developed art form known as Footwork. It’s been said that RP Boo is to Footwork what Juan Atkins is to Techno. The start. The Soul.

RP Boo deliberately labelled his new album ‘Established!’ because that’s simply what he is. He’s thankful for being bestowed with a unique talent that has not diminished and continues to excite Footworkers both locally in Chicago and around the globe. Footwork remains a Chicago-centred art form, under-recognized at home, yet loved worldwide and RP remains its grounding point, with his productions being the place the entire scene goes to.

On ‘Established!’ RP looks back to that time when he was inventing Footwork, going out listening to disco and linking with the creators of house such as Paul Johnson. For tracks like ‘Another Night To Party’ or ‘Finally Here (ft. Afiya)’ he takes himself back in time to when he started DJing, playing ghetto house and being inspired by jack tracks. These moments were the foundation point to create his own style, elevating his sound into new territories for the future. With ‘Established!’ RP wanted to return what he soaked up over his journey and remind people of the layers of connections between various Chicago dance musics.

Another side of ‘Established!’ is the ’battle track’ mentality. The battle dance circle of course comes from Hip-Hop and also earlier forms of American Black Music. Tracks like ‘Haters Increase The Heat!’ reflect this competitive aspect of Footwork – RP notes “I was feeling heat that I detected targeting me in the scene and I grab it and tracked it out and that’s what fueled the track.” He adds “I’m not bothered by haters and no one should be – there’s no valid reason to.” He goes on to explain the track ‘Now U Know’ – how the track takes that hater energy and uses it as a way to “set the seed for footwork battles” transferring the energy “to a dancer (who can then) display it with goodness of their art.“ RP goes on to indicate how this reflects Chicago – “I’m a witness. Without understanding how, you can have hate implanted in society.” Footwork to RP is a way to counter these social ills – “to then grow out of it and have people understanding greater change – to start heading in the right direction.”

‘Established!’ is also a record about Black pride, Black dignity, Black beauty and Black creativity. This is perhaps best reflected in the track “Beauty Speak Of Sounds.“ The track was one of the last compositions completed for the album and RP was imagining himself “in the grasslands of Africa” and he set about thinking how his “spirit” felt in that setting using sounds and grooves that he wouldn’t normally use.

Ultimately ‘Established!’ is a snapshot of RP Boo letting listeners even further into his musical world – ”I want the listeners to really get close to something beautiful, to sit back and enjoy with family and friends.”

Established!

THE ANSWER IS JUST A BISCUIT TOSS AWAY SOUND/PLASTIC ROBOT AWARENESS /DISJUNCT-STRUNG OUT TOASTER MASK VARIATIONS /SOLO PROJECT OF ROTUNDO STRECKER------ONE DAY WHEN I WAS OVERSIZE CONTAINER MIST, I OVERDOSED ON 50 PACKETS OF easy rise waffle mix  THEN I KNEW I WOULD NEED 9 OCTAGONAL ROOMS .  I have always been inspired by oleCramphorn Nantucket who used to play the saw - his glass eye always seemed to be staring at me constantly into another dimension-- as well as to the p funk nation multicolored dream-coat that I always wear. I f anyone has a multicolored dreamcoat I will wear it just give me time such as 7to 9 weeks for proper neurochemical/electrical stimuli to respond through several sodium gated channels that processes an  shadow statue with a creepy octagonal thumb that pulsates then releases syrup in rhythm with the saw of Nantucket .Because I seek agency in life and need to  understand my environment, i am starting a new age religion for a tax write off. It will center around the worship of a piece of plywood with seven rusty nails of various lengths. Eudora the dancer from Kafka's diary first chapter has a crooked nose that refracts at a strange rate when partially submerged in water. The light physics of the sacrificial fragment that is a part of her movements aura excess. This allows for plenty of family waterpark fun and satan worship for all...
