With its distinctive bass lines and smooth guitar riffs, funk has made waves in the music industry since the 60’s. Intricate beat rhythms and groovy instrumental layering have made funk the genre of boogieing. And now, modern artists are taking note of its hypnotic qualities when composing their next summer jams. Cue the Age of Neo-Funk. There’s a reason why Calvin Harris’ “Funk Wav Bounces Vol. 1” or Childish Gambino’s “Awaken, My Love!” make you nostalgic for a time you weren’t born into. And there’s a reason why Earth, Wind & Fire is still relevant in the music scene today. So tune into this playlist of groovy head-bobbing jams that span from yesterday into today.
