THE STORY BEHIND THIS RECORD BEGINS IN 2004 ON NEWBURY STREET IN BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS. JUICE BELUSHI FOUNDING MEMBER PAUL FOLEY IS DRESSED HEAD TO TOE IN 80'S REGALIA, INCLUDING VEST, FINGERLESS LEATHER GLOVES, FEDORA AND CHAIN CONNECTING NOSE-RING TO EAR PIERCE. IT'S LIKE A SCENE OUT OF MICHAEL JACKSON'S BAD, MINUS THE DANCING. AT HIS FEET IS A BOOM BOX BLASTING FREESTYLE AND 80'S ELECTRO-FUNK, HE'S HANDING OUT MIX CDS. NEEDLESS TO SAY WE WERE INTRIGUED!
FAST FORWARD A DECADE AND WE'RE PROUD TO SHARE THIS UNDERGROUND STORY IN ITS INCREDIBLE MUSICAL FORMAT THAT'S ABOUT AS BOSTON AS "PAHKING YA CAH FAH A BOWL OF CLAM CHOWDAH WITH WHITEY BULGAH".
JUICE BELUSHI IS PAUL FOLEY AND JAMES TROCANO'S LATEST MUSICAL ENDEAVOR. JUICE BELUSHI MEANS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, AND QUITE FRANKLY, SOUNDS LIKE A MONIKER FOR A COUPLE OF DIP SHITS. HOWEVER, DESPITE THE ABSURDITY OF THE NAME, THE MUSIC CREATED IS AT AN INVESTIGATION DISCOVERY NETWORK LEVEL OF SERIOUSNESS. THEIR PRODUCTION STYLE OF SAMPLING, CHOPPING AND LAYERING IS DEEP-ROOTED IN THE TRADITIONS OF HIP-HOP'S HALLOWED GOLDEN ERA (THE BOMB SQUAD, MARLEY MARL, PRINCE PAUL, SD50'S), WHILE THE ACTUAL AURAL OUTPUT OF THESE PRODUCTIONS EVOKES THE SPIRIT OF EARLY TO MID-90'S DEEP HOUSE (LARRY HEARD, BLAZE, KERRI CHANDLER, ROMANTHONY). IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THIS AUTHENTICALLY CLASSIC SOUND, THEY SAMPLE EXCLUSIVELY
FROM ACTUAL VINYL RECORDS AND FURTHERMORE, THEY DO NOT USE COMPUTERS; IN FACT, THEY NEVER HAVE. THEY HAVE ONLY VERY RECENTLY LEARNED HOW TO SEND EMAILS AND USE THE GOOGLE. THEY STILL HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MIDI CABLES ARE USED FOR. JUICE BELUSHI TAKES YOU BACK TO A SIMPLER TIME WHEN ENTHUSIASTIC AMATEURS COULD TRIP OVER A DRUM MACHINE, BUMP THEIR ELBOW ON A SYNTHESIZER AND IN DOING SO CREATE SOMETHING INTERESTING AND BEAUTIFUL
