I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, The Get Down 4 Real: Step Step Steppin', from Darren Barrett and it's really strong. Opening with The Get Down 4 Real, Youngehae Jeong, Paul Reinhold, Clara Moser on bass and Julian Miltenberger set an evil groove, with Warren Pettey and Santiego Bosch on keys setting the stage for Darren Barrett on trumpet to set a great melodic groove on trumpet. Quite exciting. Barrett leads the way on Flow Against the Flow with a loose but structured trumpet melody with obtuse yet perfect key strokes and electronic overflow on a tight drums rhythm. Excellent! My favorite track on the release is funky, DSYWJ funky organ and keys over an intense rolling drum/bass groove. Barrett with muted trumpet really coaxes an understated melody giving this track a Headhunters feel. Wrapping the release is We Out No Doubt a laid back groove with a excellent drum line and recurring melodic theme by Barrett. I really like this release. Check it out.
