Deeply funky Edwin Birdsong played keyboards and organs with a deft touch and an inimitable groove - making him a hot pick for samplists everywhere.
You may be aware of Daft Punk's wholesale rip of his track 'Cola Bottle Baby' - if you aren't you'll either be impressed by their breath-taking audacity or disillusioned when you hear this:
Edwin Birdsong - Rola Cola
Daft Punk - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger
The break from the Chemical Brothers 'Morning Lemon' is also an Edwin Birdsong riff, taken from his track 'Rapper Dapper Snapper' and pitched up to energising effect.
Chemical Brothers - Morning Lemon
Edwin Birdsong - Rapper Dapper Snapper
Until next time, keep your fingers dusty and your grooves clean.
