Hey...Reeno here.
I'm probably the last known electrofunk producer left in New York City.
You can see my studio pics here:

it's just ok to me...not John Robie's best--I would say "Slack" is his best record.

Larry Levan..but I can't because he's long gone.

I have to agree about Newcleus.....
some sophisticated, deep stuff.
I wish more current electro artists could be as musically creative as they were (and are)Also high on the sophisticated electrofunk list are Twilight 22, Arthur Baker/Robie, and Paul Hardcastle, and Man Parrish.
...and of course..that dude Reeno:

rOLAND R-8 MK II IS the best drum machine Roland made after the 808 and 909..so if you are on a budget this is the best you can get--8 assingnable outputs.
I use a vintage prophet-5 polyphonic synth--the warmest ever made.
Moog Source mono synth--amazing for bass.
Novation Nova--great all around VA (with built in vocoder) -

Perhaps the funkiest record to come out of New York City in the last 18 years.

A mini-LP of 5 funky tracks, including an electofunk cover of Kool & The Gang's "Summer Madness", make this a sure fire electro winner!

My favorite electro album artwork is TWILIGHT 22's lp cover.
Classic art and classic album.

I have this song on original vinyl.
I always reviSIT it from time to time and always seem to have the same opinion--It's decent, but nothing special or great.
Some records in my collection are just there for historical purposes, and not because they are "must have" records...I'd say that this is def. NOT a must have record.Reeno

I have two of these synths because I love them so much.
They are fantastic VA synths!
they can sound warm and analog, and digital and modern at the same time.3 oscillators, multi-mode filters...what more could you want?
I used one for most of the synth parts on "Reeno's theme", which you can download for free here:

Download my very first VOCODER track, "Reeno's Theme"--it's sure to please hardcore electrofunk fans.
This is done in the classic New York style folks. (after all, I AM from NYC)
