Details:
Modern Groove Syndicate's third release has been a long process well worth the wait. Recorded in April 2006, it took MGS another year to mix and master it to their satisfaction. The selectors for the 2007 Theresa Pollack Award for excellence in the arts said, Modern Groove Syndicate "understands the 'rub' between the moving parts that make the beats sing and are conscious that it is the melody that glues the cracks up tight. MGS is an instrumental funk band with a knack for burning improvisations that can only come from seasoned vets with sharp musicianship and cagey instincts. When they play, there is a joy that can only come from hard work and a healthy dose of chemistry. A lot of bands fool around with this style of music. Modern Groove owns it."
