First up is Spinna's version of Prince's 'Starfish & Coffee' which has now become 'Maple Syrup Jam'. This musical moment is nothing short of sweet as Spinna mashes two classics that go together like peanut butter and jelly. J Rocc follows up with 'Re Purple Music', which transforms Prince's music into an outstanding dose of Disco-Funk.
Enter the live experience of Prince as one die-hard fan goes all-out to archive concerts throughout the career of The Purple One. From just a single Mixcloud account compiled in the playlist below, we have almost 200 shows to enjoy by this renowned musician.
In addition, the original designer of Prince's iconic logo gives a brief overview of his work. Visit the design portfolio of Mitch Monson here at Behance to discover his thoughts and memories behind creating this timeless work of art.
"More from the bulging back catalogue of Park Rangers, an obscure Japanese reggae band who have spent the last decade delivering surprising cover versions of well-known pop, rock and disco songs. On side A there's another chance to wonder at their 1960s rocksteady style re-make of Pharrell Williams' mega-hit happy, in which the Neptunes star's lead vocal is replaces with a cheery Hammond organ solo. It's the kind of cover that can't help but put a smile on your face. The same could be said about their similarly minded flipside cover of Prince classic 'Kiss'. While it's not as instantly recognisable, it has a similar feel thanks to the band's canny fusion of tuneful Hammond organ solos and retro-futurist reggae riddims." - Juno Records
