AI is awesome Radio Funk
Hey you—yeah, you, the one with a heart for soul, a ear for groove, and a body that can’t resist moving when the bassline hits just right.
Aimé’s Kitchen Volume 126 is here, and it’s not just a mix—it’s an experience. This isn’t your average playlist. It’s a carefully curated journey through decades of music, where Motown classics rub shoulders with modern R&B, jazz-funk fusion meets underground hip-hop, and every track tells a story.
This volume is a celebration of music’s ability to transcend time. One minute, you’re swaying to Diana Ross’s velvety vocals, the next, you’re nodding your head to Thundercat’s psychedelic basslines. It’s a mix that respects the past while embracing the future.
So grab your headphones, turn it up, and let Aimé guide you through a sonic adventure that’s as smooth as it is surprising.
This mix kicks off with Diana Ross’s medley of Brown Baby / Save The Children, a soulful, uplifting start that sets the tone for what’s to come. Diana Ross, the Queen of Motown, reminds us why her voice has defined generations of music lovers.
Then there’s Prince and The Revolution’s Hello (Fresh Dance Mix), a rare gem that showcases Prince’s genius for blending funk, rock, and pop into something entirely his own. And let’s not forget Maurice White’s Switch On The Radio, a smooth, groovy track from the mastermind behind Earth, Wind & Fire.
These tracks are more than just classics—they’re the foundation upon which modern music is built.
If you’re a fan of modern R&B and funk, this mix has you covered. Thundercat’s She Knows Too Much (featuring Mac Miller) is a psychedelic, bass-heavy masterpiece that blurs the lines between jazz, funk, and hip-hop. It’s a bittersweet listen, knowing Mac Miller’s tragic passing, but it’s also a testament to the power of collaboration.
Anderson .Paak makes an appearance on Mission Road with Like, a track that blends soulful vocals with a laid-back, groovy beat. And then there’s Moodymann’s Don’t You Want My Love, a deep, hypnotic cut from one of Detroit’s finest.
These tracks prove that the spirit of funk and soul is alive and well in today’s music.
But Aimé doesn’t stop at the well-known hits. This mix is also a treasure trove of underground gems.
These are the kinds of tracks that make this mix special—the kind of music that you won’t hear anywhere else.
Diana Ross’s medley of Brown Baby / Save The Children is more than just a song—it’s a message. Released in 1973, Save The Children was a call to action, a plea for peace, love, and unity in a world that was often divided. Paired with Brown Baby, a tender, loving ode to Black children, this medley is a powerful start to the mix, reminding us of music’s ability to inspire and uplift.
Guru’s For You (featuring Me’Shell N’Degeocello & Kenny Garrett) is a perfect example of jazz-rap fusion. Guru, the legendary MC from Gang Starr, was a pioneer in blending hip-hop with live jazz instrumentation. This track, from his 1995 album Jazzmatazz, Vol. 2: The New Reality, is a smooth, sophisticated cut that showcases the best of both worlds.
She Knows Too Much is one of Thundercat’s most beloved tracks, and for good reason. The bassline is hypnotic, the lyrics are introspective, and Mac Miller’s feature adds a layer of melancholy beauty. Released in 2017, this track is a testament to the power of collaboration—and a bittersweet reminder of Mac Miller’s immense talent.
What makes Aimé’s Kitchen Volume 126 so special is its ability to blend genres seamlessly. One minute, you’re listening to a Motown classic, the next, you’re immersed in a modern R&B jam. Then, before you know it, you’re nodding your head to an underground hip-hop beat.
This mix doesn’t just jump from genre to genre—it weaves them together in a way that feels natural and cohesive.
Another standout feature of this mix is its use of remixes and reworks. Tracks like Janet Jackson’s The Knowledge (Q Sound Mix) and Prince’s Hello (Fresh Dance Mix) show how a great remix can breathe new life into a classic.
These remixes aren’t just gimmicks—they’re reinventions, taking familiar tracks and making them feel fresh and exciting all over again.
