The funk renaissance isn’t limited to reissues of out-of-print classics. A new crop of musicians has gotten into the act as well, with a lot of great young bands that look to President (George) Clinton as a visionary. One of the best of the current crop, this Brooklyn-based nine-piece returns with its second album, Funkincense. The grooves again come on the back of heady blend of fat, horn-driven hooks, percolating beats, and tasty guitar-and-bass grooves that never stay inside the box for long. Highlights include the hard-charging Afro-funk track “Ticket to Cabo,” which features not only a snappy flute solo but also possibly the first prominent appearance of oboe in a funk song. The horn charts from “Catchers Mitt” and “Choom Gang” traffic in the Ethiopian-jazz vein, underpinned by a funk base. The slow and snaky “Klip Winger” offers a more psychedelic edge, with a nasty set of drum breaks that'll keep you from nodding off. Indeed, roaring through eight songs in less than 38 minutes, this is a band that keeps both your head and your feet engaged.
