If there’s one man in the world of funk who needs no introduction, it’s Bootsy Collins. Always up for embracing the best in new technology, Bootsy’s been funking out with the VoiceLive 2 and VoiceTone Synth. Bootsy may not need an introduction, but hey – that’s not to say that he shouldn’t get one anyway!
Rising to prominence in, as some might say, the best backing band James Brown ever had, Bootsy played on some seminal JB cuts, including Sex Machine, Super Bad and Soul Power. As if that didn’t give the man a lifetime’s pass to the Super-Funk hall of fame, he went on to join George Clinton and Parliament, together creating what are often cited as the quintessential P-Funk albums.
So reads the first chapter of a CV that never slows up and never quits, the opening salvo for a man who’s massive influence on the world of music resonates to this day and can never be over-stated.
Bootsy may be a bass playing legend, but he’s also a top-notch vocalist who likes to stay ahead of the curve, which is why he gets the very latest cutting edge tools to give him the sound he wants, such as TC-Helicon’s VoiceLive 2 and VoiceTone Synth
“’Glory hal-ley-Stupid’ is what I said when I first started funking around with the TC-Helicon VoiceTone Synth. And then I hooked up the TC-Helicon VoiceLive 2 vocal pedal and I said ‘hold up, time out, I can now restore the Roar, and stay funked up at the same time’. If you are into quality, clean dirt in yo’ funk, then check these two Golden nuggets out. Funk up and away! Bootsy baby!!!”
