De Wolfe Music
Format: CD
intro
Enjoyable collection of obscure, but funky-sounding film and adverts music mainly from the 60's and 70's
On the lookout for new food for the sampling machine, or digging through crates to fit more titles in a DJ's bag, was the reason that record labels started to re-issue groovy and obscure beats from complete unknowns. The Music De Wolfe catalog however contains a lot of recordings that were always meant to be consumed like DJ tools. The theme to 'Bite Harder' is dry and funky 1970s warehouse music. Get it now and know in advance what many of the next hypes will sound like. Or try this yourself. Cut up, hustle and go! A whole mountain of useful breaks, hooks, bits and pieces here. This is what folk heard when they watched films and television or when they went Christmas shopping 35 or 40 years ago.
