The original ‘Funkberater’ is from the ‘Big Funk Band’ album by the UK based band Redtenbacher’s Funkestra featuring Austrian groove jam band Backwood Five. This glitch Hop Beat Fatigue remix features a hooky slide guitar intro, a huge crawling bass line, fat synth pads, morphed saxophone sounds and a down home sizzling Blues guitar solo by Robert Boogert aka Beat Fatigue. Although the two artists sit in different corners of the Funk spectrum - one being Electronica based and the other Live band based - their collaborations always cook up a mean groove under the motto ‘all is fair in funk’ and Funkestra listeners seems to approve.
