Hi,
I have tonnes of funk in my house.
Good funk is heavy on the rhythm. James Brown developed the emphisis "on the one". For this you need a good bass player.
More importantly you need a good drummer.
Get the groove going and lets funk!
First record with the word Funky in the title.
James Brown Good Foot & Soul Power
Superbad

There are two types of music. Music I own and music I don't.

SCIDB, Dean a great insight there in that first clip. I always hear this music as the strong 2 and 4 thing.
in fact you can hear this in the click track that he plays with. so to hear him talk of the 1 is great.
Who listens to the bass player anyway??? (sorry leonard)
Check out the drum demo in video 2 especially the 2nd half. you will hear his 2 and 4 on the snare.
Then the 3rd video. strong 2 and 4 from drums but the bass is using the 1 technique mentioned.
love this thread
fascinating stuff.

One of the most-sampled breaks ever at 1.21.
