#604 I Thought Of You / Matrices – Mike Bandoni

Description

Most notably known as the main man behind UK Funk heavyweights Funkshone, this sees Mike Bandoni making a welcome return to his solo work for this new 45 on Skyline Recordings. I Thought Of You is a delightful slice of Funky Soul/Jazz that sees Mike playing everything! A superb drum sound with layers of Rhodes, live Bass, Clav, Percussion and Organ, the cut is so soulful it hurts. A prefect balance of rhythm and melody and all that weve come to expect of Mr Bandoni. The flip features a sparser but funkier tune Matrices. Elements reminiscent of Money Mark, the Meters and Bob James combine to form a cracking three and half minutes of bliss. Again, a killer drum sound and instrumentation to match. One thing is clear. The new Mike Bandoni sound is here to stay and we here at Skyline Recordings dig it!
