Store Categories TROUBLE FUNK Pump Me Up / 7" NEW VINYL / Funky Delicacies 2014
Two all time go-go classics, served up for the first time on the same platter, "Pump Me Up" and "Let's Get Small" show you why Trouble Funk has been called the missing link between funk and hip-hop. Trouble Funk first achieved popularity in the late 70s and became popular with their groove-oriented, swinging funk instrumental driven, DC-specific, laid-back-yet-hard-charging brand of funk called "go-go," and remained popular through two generations- first with their funk-loving peers for whom they churned out hit after local hit through the late 80s, and next with the hip-hop generation, getting sampled by everyone from Boogie Down Productions to Will Smith. This limited 7" release on the original TF Records label includes all the breaks from the original 12" singles and with the open "Pump, pump, pump, pump me up!" DJ's have been cutting up for decades.
