Released on Urban in 1988, the 12-inch takes some of Brown's most recognisable funk grooves, drum breaks, horn stabs and vocal snippets and stitches them together into a relentless five-minute dancefloor workout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mix draws on an impressive selection of material, including \"Funky Drummer\", \"Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine\", \"Cold Sweat\", \"Soul Power\", \"Get On The Good Foot\", \"The Grunt\" by The J.B.'s and Lyn Collins' \"Think (About It)\". There's even a nod to Kurtis Blow's \"A.J. Scratch\", making this a particularly interesting snapshot of the growing relationship between funk, hip-hop and sampling culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original UK pressing (Urban URBX 17) also features \"Stone To The Bone\", a remix of \"Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose\" and \"Cold Sweat\". The US Polydor pressing differs, replacing the original B-side selection with Norman Cook and Streets Ahead's \"Payback (The Final Mixdown)\" and Danny Krivit's \"Funky Drummer (Bonus Beat Reprise)\".\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn essential piece of late-'80s DJ culture, demonstrating how the raw ingredients of James Brown's funk could be reassembled into something entirely new. A brilliant record for breakbeat enthusiasts, hip-hop heads and crate diggers alike\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Funkadoobian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55737768739153,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9850\/9393\/files\/James_Brown_The_Payback_Mix_f.jpg?v=1794221731","url":"https:\/\/thefunkadoobian.com\/products\/james-brown-the-payback-mix-keep-on-doing-what-youre-doing-but-make-it-funky","provider":"The Funkadoobian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
