Poets of Rhythm – Summerdays
Biography
Sometimes there are moments in history that are quite remarkable!!! Like the heroic revolt of Spartacus or the new view of the universe by Kopernikus or - in our days - the story of three kids that were captured in the mid 80`s by a musical style that was long gone, in fact, never really happened in their home town of Munich/Germany.
It was the explosive dynamics and the rough sounds of numerous late 60`s and early 70`s independent funk bands that sublimed their whole musical approach towards a even more defined stylistic expression. After early excursions through the universe of rare groove 45`s (collecting records and discerning the deeper contents of this music), they started to create their own small renaissance of this special style by founding their 7” label “Hotpie & Candy Records” to release first creative moments (yeah!).
Using specific equipment and recording techniques they developed a trademark sound that laid a foundation for a unique output that goes far beyond your average “Soul Brother No.1” style funk.
Growing local success led to the release of a now “classic” debut album (Practice What You Preach, 1993) and supported their urban guerrilla tactics to react against cheesy and overproduced mainstream entertainment (especially the then successful “Acid fake-Jazz” hype).
Following this LP, further 7” releases were issued on their own label (introducing different side-acts such as “The Pan-Atlantics”, “Bus People Express”, “The Soul-Saints Orch.”, “Bo Baral´s Excursionists Of Enlightenment”, “The Woo Woo´s” plus many others).
