And this is proved by the latest opus "Serial" https://youtu.be/k5lD_KgN3rw Gin'Gas is not a one-man band - it's a hot band with its own philosophy, great lyrics, rhythm, sound and pulse. Get up, stand up, am sexy funk! Funkit with us! We're coming to meet you! Gin'Gas has been making music for more than 30 years and has given birth to a whole movement that has seen the birth of Sun Klyosha and the Wolves of Bekesh and Freaks on Floor. It's not for nothing that they are called the pioneers of Lithuanian funk and its leader Funk the Lithuanian apostle. The line-up of the big funk band is still being polished, as the band is already presenting the 1st part of the 4th album ReFunked PartOne, dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the band. The main line-up of the band consists of 12-13 musicians from all over Lithuania: Funk'ers from Šiauliai, Vilnius, Klaipėda and Panevėžys, playing only live! That's how the United Front of Funk pulsates here! The sound of the album is thanks to the analogue record label Studijofonas and its father Gintautas Litinskas, to the composer Jievars Jasinskis, who wrote the arrangements, to the god of analogue sound Vladas Straupas, and to the composer and sound designer Paul Jasiunas, and to the whole team who created the remixes and new mixes: Pablo MF, Pete Roche, Julius Soundman, MARTS, N_Works, Kristina Jatautaite and the Funk Choir... The band's frontman, vocalist MC, and situation generator and controller, the unchanging and always "changing" Remigijus "Funkit" Ruokis, and his right-hand woman, the master of the velvety voice Agnė Michalenkovaitė, maybe even the divine Kristina Jatautaitė, and other frequent singers, the expressive drummer Mindaugas Vaškys, the bassist - rhythm and harmony machine Paulius Rūkas, the concrete Antanas Balsys and Gintautas Litinskas, keyboardists - the precise nuevo Martynas Šiaulys, percussionist - the adventurous Aurimas Povilaitis, saxophonists - the hot Arūnas Viduolis, Kęstutis Sova, and the stylish baritone - Laimonas Urbikas, trumpet players - the temperamental Dmitrijus Levencovas, Irmantas Bimba, trombonist - the technical Valdas Surdokas and guitarist - the explosive all-rounder with an extremely wide range of voices Vykintas "Vykis" Jasaitis... And sometimes their own sound operator for such a gang... Performing a multifaceted hot programme, these guys know how to move any audience, who start to drown in the groove and join the party together, such an explosive funky jazzy soul charge for everyone according to his or her own Ph and footing... New superFUNK "Serial", "Banana Nano", "Link Funk", "Broadway", Superhits "Jons Deyo", "I know a girl from the ad agency", "What if I did", "Ask who believes in fake rumours", "Don't tell my now", "Anybody love", "Mage", "Vine", "Music for the film", "Heperdido", "Wynchester rap", "A t drns?", discofunk "Užupis Anthem"... creates such an aura that your feet start to move and those who don't dance hip-hop or funk just naturally try to "tus". The band's programme is full of quality non-synthetic soul-jazz-funk. It is like a heritage without which it is impossible to understand electronic dance music, which uses funk riffs as a starting point that enriches not only the product they create, but also the fantasies of the remixers, which can be heard both on the new vinyl and on the CD, which will be available for purchase.
