about

version: 3.3 [juneteenth2023]

these are the original notes for 'funkee X' [tracks 1-15]:

This jumpy collection features the efforts of pause artists Messrs. Miguel Frasconi, Marvin Green & Oswald. Mr. Frasconi has perpretated much of the material while Mr. Green pioneered 'Fido Dance Pause' & disc-overed 'Willow'. Mr. Oswald concocted 'Here We Are' as well as overhearing project continuity, speeds, edits, mixes, discosculations & lyric transcripts. Brief fragments have been borrowed from Mr. J. Tenney's 'Viet Flakes (1969), a borrowing original, burrowed within. Also featured prominently is 'This Beat Is Mine' (no it isn't) which Mr. Oswald subsequently pilfered from Mr. Frasconi & rederived as 'Bird Funk Pause' (soon to be made re-available on the album SPOORS) as well as 'Sinotcha Funk Pause'
