M8/M8 Craig Bartlett Spirit of House.com's PICK OF THE WEEK - December 8, 2008 Black man in the White House" features woodwind specialist Rick Keller and is the Groove Junkies' way to celebrate the election of Barack Obama as next president of the United States . The project comes your way as a massive package of not less than 14 mixes to choose from. The Groove Junkies' Funky Roots Rub' is a funky tribal house gem featuring spoken words by Prophet alongside horns, sax and flute by Rick Keller. The groove on their 'Politically Correct Mix' is more hefty, with the synth stabs getting slightly techy. Stuttering Munx (Tim Nice & Johnny Young) take the track to the main room using a relentless tech house groove as base for the vocals and cool synths. Scott K. and Joey Kay team up for some serious jackin' Chicago house with jazzy twists out of this world, while Scott K. on his own goes for an organic rework featuring jazzy piano, lovely guitar and funky bassline. Finally we have Outer (aka Richard Amaya) delivering hotness with his afro funk soaked remixes that are nothing less than irresistible. Mike Fossati souledUp.com Black Man In The White House' is the first track taken from the album, and in case you haven't guessed, it's a tribute to new US president Barack Obama's huge political victory. And boys and girls, it's jumping! Rick Keller, a very talented saxophonist plays some amazing notes through this release, and accompanied by the filtered organ keys, low 303'esque bassline and deep low spoken lyrics, this track has a feeling of a deep, proper house track! For me, it's the Politically Correct Mix, but the other mixes are also very worthy of a listen and play! Great sax! Gareth Morgan JJazproJect Magazine This has been floating around for a few weeks now and it doesn't take a genius to understand where it takes its inspiration from. While the rest of the world was still breathing a sigh of relief, Evan and Parrish were already hard at work putting together this funky spoken vocal number. There are so many mixes that I barely know where to begin. There's something to suit most audiences with my own picks being "GJ's Funky Roots Rub" and the "Scott K and Joey Kay Chicago Bump Mix". The sassy brass in both tracks had me hooked from the first few listens. With the subject matter so topical it may well be that the instrumentals come into their own in the months ahead. Either way this is well worth getting your hands on. Dean Serafini WorldDJ.com After not only a historic election which saw Barack Obama elected the new U.S. president - he has also become the inspiration for Groove Junkies' latest release, Black Man In The White House. The men behind Groove Junkies, Evan Landes and Parrish Wintersmith, have come together with Rick Keller to produce their latest single to be released on MoreHouse Records. The package comes with a staggering ten different versions, including remixes from: Groove Junkies, Scott K & Joey Kay, Outer and Stuttering Munx - it's worth noting this release has many versions as instrumentals of each version are provided. Rysh Paprota Swagger Lifestyle.com 'Funky Roots Rub' - For the dancefloor, this is my first choice - the energy is the best compared to the rest! 'Politically Correct' Mix - This is funky, but something about it makes you wanna just think, and it's perfect for the video, or vice versa. It's house music and funky alright, but I think relatively compared to the rest, it's best for just soaking in this time in history.
