Part two of the Jazzgle series bears a title I've been carrying around in my gut for a good two years now, a reference to the style of a drum'n'bass goliath: godfather smooth, don dappa deep, big daddy Bukem. It starts where his feet end and goes that much further underground, though maintaining the same longitude within the globe of jungle. As mentioned in the preface to the first part, the second features the sexyphone, albeit not as much as I had anticipated, and also ratchets up the use of the human voice - an element I tend to like understated in my tunes but which I think works well here.

When I was first planning out the series, I placed all the selections for it into two seperate piles: one for amen tunes and one for non-amen tunes. The second pile was twice as large as the first. Upon listening back just now, I realize I subconsciously segregated the tunes in the non-amen pile into two categories as well: the horny, funkadelic vibe of the first mix, and a softer, more sublty stated oomph this time around. If these were the two halves of a mixtape, I'd say the first was the more fixed presentation of structural compositions, and the second was the meandering might-go-anywhere of improv. The result is a light, airy, eerie, ethereal mist, a state just this side of disaster as though the notes were about to fly apart but some sonic half-something were still holding them together.

Apart from a funkgle mix focusing on pre-drumfunk drumfunk, it's unlikely that I'll be doing much more non-amen work in the future, but I feel this project was a nice little diversion for myself, that it has helped me develop a greater appreciation for this type of tune than I had beforehand, and I hope the same may hold true for a few fellow addicts out there. Whether it does or whether it's made you wonder what the hell swallowed Tykal's balls, stay tuned for part three, I promise it'll pound some life back into that brotherly break in a way it's never been broken before. And when I come for blood, I don't come for some piddly ass clot, I come for a full on heart attack with a side of stroke and grand mal seizure.

In vinyl I pray, Amen.
