It's All Black - Fjordfunk (Tici Taci)

 


Title: It’s All Black

Artist: Fjordfunk

Label: Tici Taci

Cat Number: ticitaci064

Genre: Disco

 

1: It’s All Black

2: It’s All Black (Hardway Bros Meet Monkton Uptown)

 

Coming out as a CD single, ‘It’s All Black’ is a forceful piece of funk-fuelled psychedelia which, in its original form, is driven by a rubberoid bass, an eponymous spoken word intonation and a delicate, but vital, intermittent percussive knock. Its eleven minute length proves essential after around the half way mark when it loosens its shackles and soars, and then for the last three minutes or so, enters a world of cosmic abstraction. The ‘Hardway Bros Meet Monkton Uptown’ version is as its name suggests, a granular, dubbed out fuzzy fractal filled plough through the sonic undergrowth which, with its sweeping guitars and concave trajectory, complements the original wonderfully.
