Sorry yesterday I had forgotten to do my Music Wednesday. So just for today, it's going to be a music Thursday!
Anyway, today I'll be talking about the genre, funk.
Funk is a mixture of soul, R&B and with some jazz, orginating in the late 1960s. The Red Hot Chili Peppers is an example of a band that plays funk music. Funk is an interesting genre with several influences from other genres like how it's syncopated rhythms come from jazz's influence, while the melody is influenced from soul and R&B. Funk also has that groovy and catchy bass line, or guitar riff, or solo. In this song below, I'll let you hear, there're the usual instruments, a guitar, bass, drums and even a trumpet! Believe me, I feel that this is the best song by RHCP.
