Joe’s Blues/Funk Review : Episode 2 – “Brooklyn Funk Essentials”
So if you’ve driven with me before, you’ve most likely heard these guys. If you’re looking for just care-free, as fun as it gets, let loose, dance music… this is it. BFE mixes old school influences with modern sounds, reggae, egyptian, and heavy funk. The two main vocalists are both award winning poets, so their lyrics are pretty great in some songs, which is rare for funk.
I decided this time around to put two songs on for this band to prove that they’re pretty damn amazing. The first song shows their versatility, the second shows how basass they are.
BFE – Dance Free Night

I dare anyone to listen to these and not get the urge to dance your asses off. That being said, they’re having a concert in Central Park and somewhere on Bleeker on June 27th (Saturday). I’ll be attending. Hope I get some fellow funk-lovers to join me.
