Round 26 : The Ambient Porno Funk Revival Project
This Round Is Done!

There hasn't been a round in a long time, not since I got really busy doing stuff. Let's do a round with the theme "Ambient Porno Funk". What's that you ask?

Well first, there's Ambient. I'm sure you run into Ambient all the time when you go into a lame restaurant with that puts Avocado on everything and calls it "upscale". There's a whole categorization mechanism for this kind of music, with Ambient being similar to Trip-Hop but different from Electronica and not quite the same as...basically, it's slow mesmerizing ambient music. Go search for it on Youtube and you'll run into it's connection with meditation and LSD. Or rather, the only way to like Ambient is to do LSD and meditate to it.

Then we've got Porno Funk. There's clearly Funk, and if you don't know what that is, go look up James Brown, Jimmy Nolen and probably "Popa's Got a Brand New Bag" and "Sex Machine". Then to get the "Porno Funk" sound, go listen to Isaac Hayes and "Shaft", with the guitar riff that was used in every porn form then. Finally, go search youtube for "porno funk" and you'll then have the idea. There's even elements of Disco and Smooth jazz.

Your challenge is to somehow combine elements of Ambient and Funk in a pornotastic to create a modern rendition of the genre that would make Ron Jeremy proud.
