Kool & The Gang ~ Summer Madness The 1974 Monster Mix
“Summer Madness“ is the song Rocky played when he fed his fish in the hit movie. It was already a jazx funk classic in 1977 with its dramatic and engaging mix of shimmering jazz that makes me think of the visual distortion you see on the roads during heatwaves, they almost look like puddles sometimes and the tension filled ARP synth performance that is couched in a totally funky and sublime drum track. They created magic.
It was the B side to “Higher Plane“ and while it has become infinitely more popular even though it never charted. Sampling gave the song new life starting in 1988 with Rodney O And Joe Cooley’s single “Give Me the Mic”. Since then, hip hop culture has heavily sampled the R&B more popular now than in 1974, “Summer Madness“ has been used in the 2000’s in movies, video games, soundtracks and even at UFC.
The simple but intricately complex song touches just about everyone who listens to it. Man, is it hot! it is currently 27 Centigrade or 81 degrees and the low will be 21 at 11PM. The heat is driving me crazy so much so I had to put down this remix cos I didn’t have the energy after working all is draining! Drink lots of water, it makes a difference. I have been taking cold water baths right from the tap, and refreshing soak in spearmint scented epsom salt. In the last three weeks we will have had two nights that dropped to 57.2 F.
Anyway, I finally finished this hour long Monster Mix, it’s not the one song repeated 40 some times back to back but a real remix that lasts a little over an hour. I looped a lot of the hypnotic pulsing to give the song more space to breathe and the next thing I knew I was at an hour and four I feel like I am on a journey headphones on and eyes I present to you, the Monster Mix of Kool & The Gang’s “Summer Madness“ on this steamy Monday night in the middle of a heatwave that has been going on for nearly three weeks. Its a cool breeze for your ears and brain.
