Music for night owls - John Peel after playing this on 27/3/93.
Featuring “live percussion & vibes”, I feel that Funk You Very Much, is an inaccurate title for what we get to hear on this track. I’d have gone with Sam-Bang, Thank You, Ma’am, given that the track sounds as close in style to fast paced Latin Music as it does to Funk, especially from around 1:48.
Funk You Very Much is not in and of itself, an original piece of music. Rather, it is a remix - by Jon Williams - of an Ultraviolet Catastrophe track called The Trip. Funk You Very Much found itself on a 12-inch of remixes of The Trip, all of which were given alternative titles. Of these, Funk You Very Much is the catchiest, Trip Harder is the most energetic and Twisted Twinkle is the most inventive. But it was Trip Harder which earned the men behind The Ultraviolet Catastrophe a windfall when The Chemical Brothers included it on their 1998 mix compilation album, Brothers Gonna Work It Out.
