Catalog #:	RSB 041CD

"True to BBE's tradition of releasing compilations compiled by Hip Hop and Soul' most forward thinking producers, they have enlisted the Wu Tang Clan's RZA for the second installment of their new 'Kings of' series. Along for the ride is the original 'Legendary of Deep Funkster', DJ Keb Darge sharing duties on this 2xCD set of hard-to-find classics. Keb Darge has been passionate about music since birth, in the 70's, he was a regular visitor to legendary 'Northern Soul' (a term which is attributed to Godin) nights at The Wigan Casino, in the 80's he turned his attention to funk, and is solely responsible for the Deep Funk movement. RZA is a member of Wu Tang Clan, an actor (Coffee & Cigarettes, Rhyme & Reason) and film composer (Kill Bill Vol I, Ghost Dog -The Way of The Samurai). The 'Kings of..' series releases are homages, not to 'lost' musical genres, but to music that 'fits' within a specific genre, which may have either been forgotten, or may only be remembered for the first time."

"Matthew Herbert brings in his own unique style and reproduces a version of 'Nice Dream' that constantly reflects his own production flair and craftsmanship. Reminiscent of one of his many aliases 'Doctor Rockit,' Herbert expresses his own creative stamp on the bare elements he takes from the original. With Mara Carlyle providing vocals, the end result is a curiously quaint waltz, echoing accordions and soft fluctuating pads." Feat. Matthew Herbert w/ Mara Carlyle, RJD2, Shawn Lee.
