Today’s funky offering features on US rapper and producer, Andy Cooper’s 2018 record, The Layered Effect.
Described as offering “a punchy reminder of the creative fun to be had in digging for breaks, stringing up loops and layering sounds,” the record only came to my attention today, so I’ve been working my way through it as I write this!
Brimming full of delightful inflections from the world of jazz, easy listening, film soundtracks and Hollywood voices, it pays loving homage to the classic, funky days of early rap. Opening track Here Comes Another One is the track that got me into this album..check it out above and listen/purchase the rest of the album from here.
