Liberate Your Soul 7

Retro Roland funks up the always fun and catchy Fat Albert Theme, including a lil' bit of Bill Cosby too!  Also featured is the ever-popular Lyn Collins "Think" riff, as well as Philly's own Instant Funk!!  Peace, Love and Enjoyment!!!

Retro Roland Riso: Funk Mashup V. 03 (Fat Albert Theme, Lyn Collins, Instant Funk)

Time Wharp’s ‘Cole Dub’ single is taken off his forthcoming eponymous debut album, set for release via Astro Nautico in 12’’ vinyl and digital formats in May.

‘Cole Dub’ inherits the glorious soulful clarity and dancefloor efficiency of New York house. Bold chopped and resampled live drum patterns, warm organ stabs, and mantric vocal hooks provide the single’s rhythmic sediment, with saxophones and walled up synth bliss washing in and out of the stereo field for dynamic effect. Also included are album outtake ‘Tunnel,’ a drums-only ‘Cole Dub’ rhythm track and a remix by Step+Repeat, the debut of a collaboration between Atlanta producer Stefan Ringer (aka REKchampa) & keyboardist Chris Irvin.

Lyrics:

Everyday I gotta see red and you peckerwoods 
Surrounded by more squares than a crowd full of checkered hoods 

Black, white and red 
Purple haze
Time to get down
I’m a little black mushroom cloud

Once you get past the mascara and the bangs
Her yellow eyes don’t look so bulimic
She’s got game

Her second-handed French kiss 
Just leaves me breathless
Bedhead
Flashbacks 
I wanna kill redheads

35-W 
Dirty Velcro tennis shoes
Pants sagging low
Kiss my booty 
Sick a duck or two
 
Same holes in my clothes since November
Hood up like a snake both eyes glow magenta

Lurking in the sticks
Full of rage
Wicked pisser

Sleeping in the river bed 
Dreaming of your little sister

I wish they’d take their fingers out of my gills
Hip-hop insomniac who took a year’s supply of sleeping pills

In and out of focus
Adjust the feed
Your retinas detach as both eyes start to bleed

The record skips
As your pupils shatter
Dying in your house ‘cuz fate changed the channel

It’s all black and white, but you’re blinded by the colors
Another panoramic view, the fuse just blew

Too busy playing games
You lose
And I’m the laughing blur 
That’s been lurking over you

RED
I’ve got this shiny red bat
For this kid named (shhh)
Fingers in my honey
Trying to steal my candy

Black, white and red
Purple haze
BAM
You’re dead

Puking on the escalator
Stressing about the situation

Search
Kill
Seek out
Destroy

Classical raps employed
Microphone Rachmaninoff

Excuse me
Who are you?
I smell something wrong here

There’s the front door
You don’t belong here

Swimming in a sea of people
Feeling like a Hmong chick
It’s all about the Mississippi Mud
And the Sun Chips
Air so thick
You can slice it with a Bowie knife

Painted on my face in
Red and black 
Shades of moonlight

Blue to the red rune
Tripping over Neptune
Faded like a Vestax 
When I melt down the wax

Pass the appetizer
And a butter knife
Good gracious

Put your hands up 
If you never sold your soul to Satan

Hungry for destruction
Thirsty for revenge
By the Blue Moon 
I stab pads with pens

Pagan mathematics 
Static crackling in back kid
Raw to the bloody knuckles
Busters stumble backwards

Since 1984
I’ve been a bloody nasty bastard 
Puncturing both lungs
When I bust to the masses

RED

I’ve seen mad visions
Through these X-ray glasses
Like oppression to the humble 
From these upper-classes

Paint a false depiction
Watch me slash the canvas

Black, white and red
Shattered glass 
On the mattress

Clone me 
Ten fold
Watch me roll like Jethro

Then “leggo my Eggo”
This ain’t no 
Smoke weed
Gel fro

Hello to the yellow
Scared white
When I bellow red
Emcee Re-Writables
Scramble like deviled eggs

I’ve got more kick 
Than a centipede with Keds
Ya’ll be sipping from the straw
While I polish off the keg

RED

It says Jordan on the nametag

Go home 
Change your clothes
Brush your teeth
And take a dang bath

Lyrics:
There’s a place
In my subconscious 
Where the naked ladies dance
There’s a hole in my head
Where the Feds can see it all

Between the Barbasol and stubble
Shaves a Mach 3
Rinse it off with hot water
Take a shot of sake

Hollow tip Cupid
And the second-day 
Stupids

Pocket full of shells
And a head full of sedatives

Feel the trombones
On the Mambo No. 777
Global domination 
Aspirations of Magellan

Etched in gold
Roll these verses like Pharisees
Bouncing the crowd 
Up and down 
Like the seven seas

With this melody 
That I bust
Like a felony

Devouring beets
Like toothless rednecks in Tennessee
Caught red-handed like
Who killed Elmo?

Blue Monday
Sung by morning wood
Pinocchio

Oh

Woe

Guess who’s back in town?
Pantomimes frown 
‘cuz they ain’t down 
With this sound
You godamn clowns

Lazarus Emcees

Guess who’s back in town?
Pantomimes frown 
‘cuz they ain’t down with this sound
You godamn clowns

Lazarus Emcees

Next verse
Rowdier than first
Turn it up 
Because its about to get worse

So 

Raise the roof
When I smack 
A hundred million proof

I’ll sabotage in camouflage
Then let the rabble 
Babble on

Because this theme song
Swings the room
Like a see saw

Arrive like Harrey Carrey
With a chuckle 
From the other side

Skulls and bones eyepatch
Out to get your mother’s pie
Stuttering rhymes like retards
Rocking tie dye

From California to Boston
From the moonwalk to Charleston
I’m like
Charlton Heston blasting mics
Rikki tikki tembo
No sarembo
Pushing red buttons 
Like an old Nintendo

Hot as gumbo
On the Coca-cola tempo
Spitting out the rhythm
Like my little brother 
Munching lentils

Bombing as I palm it
Hip-hop 
I vomit

Spewing out raps
Like I swallowed all the Comet

Guess who’s back in town?
Pantomimes frown 
‘cuz they ain’t down with this sound
You godamn clowns

Lazarus Emcees

Guess who’s back in town?
Pantomimes frown 
‘cuz they ain’t down with this sound
You godamn clowns

Lazarus Emcees

There’s a place in Mecca
Where Allah once existed
There’s a footprint in the chapel
Where the devil took a backstep

When I die
Make the priest 
Spit the eulogy
Roses on the casket
Ghosts laughing

We wine and dine
While the women cry
Drop the needle
Boom shaka bam
Dr. Gonzo give me high five

The type to try and ride a bike
With a wooden peg for a leg
Dirty moustache frozen to the keg

So keep it funky or whatever 
I’m a drop it ska
All you women in the crowd
Need to burn your bras

Strip naked 
Until you can’t take it
I like your braces
Plug me in like the matrix

And you’re the actress of the year
Like Keanu Reeves
And I’m the jazzy ritz cracker 
Who loves to bang on the piano keys

It’s pronounced Jordan
Blame Canada
1-2-3 
Take two
Time to set it off

Guess who’s back in town?
Pantomimes frown 
‘cuz they ain’t down with this sound
You godamn clowns

Lazarus Emcees

Berlin-based duo Snacks drop an infectious four tracker on House Of Disco this October.
Forming Snacks (@snackslive) in 2014, New Zealand’s Rene Corbett and Germany’s Aljoscha Babel have been joining the dots between funk-fuelled disco and sultry house with releases landing on Pusic Records, Boogie Angst, hafendisko and Mule Musiq. As DJs they’ve been transforming dancefloors into all out bedlam with their upbeat and eclectic performances, whilst their party-focused productions have found a home in the record crates of Ben UFO, Detroit Swindle, Prosumer and Beats In Space’s Tim Sweeney.

‘Burnin’ inaugurates the package by dropping a laidback drum rhythm, piercing chords and soulful vocal loops topped with a fuzzy bassline. ‘Matinee’ then takes things into deeper territories with organic percussion, blissful synth swells and uplifting choral patterns, before ‘Deep Fry’ generates a compelling groove with smooth bass licks and rich string harmonies.

In demand Dutch duo @Fouk, who’ve appeared on HOD as well as Razor-N-Tape and Heist, deliver an offbeat take on ‘Deep Fry’ with delicate melodies, opulent pads and cosmic nuances resonating throughout. Finally, a digital only remix comes from fellow Netherlands-based pair Soultage, whose rendition of ‘Burnin’’ works with the original’s pianos and vocals to produce a new level of funk.

Snacks ‘Burnin’ EP drops on House Of Disco (https://soundcloud.com/thehouseofdisco) on 3rd October on vinyl and 14th October digitally

DJ | Producer | Soul Provider | Matasuna Records | The FunkBro Show

Retro Roland Riso, has over 25 years of club experience behind the decks, with a true passion for all things funky, filled with soul and truly groovy.

As a toddler, he'd spend countless hours enjoying his parents' eclectic record cabinet; listening to artists such as The Beatles, Sergio Mendes, Sly & The Family Stone, The Turtles, Taj Mahal, even The Osmonds and Bay City Rollers.  Little did his folks realize, Roland snagged a few of those gems over the years to add to his impressive collection.  

While fully immersed in listening to music, he began learning piano at 6 years old, which inevitably launched his love to create and produce.

Once considered the "Hardest Working DJ in Philly", Retro Roland was spinning 5-6 residencies on a weekly basis, including a highly regarded internet radio show, "Sounds of The True School".  During his 4 year run, Mr. Riso's guests included Ursula Rucker, The Last Emperor, Rich Medina and Mpozi Tolbert.

He also ran a successful monthly Jazz and Soul Record Show, which was widely popular amongst record collectors, DJ's and producers, including Cash Money, Jazzy Jeff and Quest Love.

Riso also helped engineer Cozmic Cat's legendary Philadelphia party, "Groove Lounge", which brought musicians, vocalists and DJ's a platform to perform in united, rhythmic harmony, which featured a then unknown, Jill Scott.

As an URB Magazine mixtape runner-up, The Soul Provider has shared the bill with incredible performers, including Afrika Bambaataa, Felix Da Housecat, Dubtribe, King Britt, DJ Craze, Vikter Duplaix, house pioneer Robert Owens and the legendary Barbara Tucker.  He recently opened up for Grammy nominated artist, Flo-Rida.

A number of Retro's remixes are in regular rotation on The Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show, featured on BBC Radio 6, with funk 45 releases on Matasuna Records.  Plus, Roland hosts a weekly music broadcast, The FunkBro Show, on RadioActiveFM.

Notorious for working the crowd and rocking the dance floor, Riso maximizes every opportunity to drop a funky "Retro Roland Riso" remix, morphing the room into a sweaty, swanky frenzy!
