Album US 2011 on Wonderwheel Recordings label
Rock and R&B/Soul
Janxta Funk by the Pimps of Joytime is a joyous and groove heavy drive down an open stretch of highway on a sunny day with no rush to get anywhere, yet always chugging along and pushing forward. Pulling you in with the title track that lays down the philosophy of this hard hitting Brooklyn boogie band and their message of the groove. The tone is set for a taste of the dance party, throw yourself into the mix kind of show this band puts on when they hit the stage. Drawing inspiration from Afro-beat, disco, funk,hip-hop, Latin, electronic, and folk forms this release truly is a melting pot of sounds. Enjoy the synth heavy disco funk of ‘Keep the Music Playing’, or the laid back roots based slow jam ‘Blues Wit You’, either way it’s a jam baby, and it’s a damn funky one at that. Groove to Pimpin’ Music, or chill out to Walkin’ featuring the legendary Roy Ayers. There is something for everyone. A little gritty and janky, yet clean and tight, this album will rock you and make ya move your dancing feet. Source: http://www.wonderwheelrecordings.com/the-pimps-of-joytime-janxta-funk/
