Featured in TIR Episode 135 (Part 2 of 2): Danish bassist Ida Nielsen, best known as a member of Prince’s New Power Generation and 3rdEyeGirl bands, but also an increasingly prolific artist in her own right. That includes five solo albums since 2008, with her latest, 02022020, released earlier this year. That record is a mellow departure from her customary funk and danceable grooves.

Here she shares her musical life with and apart from Prince, describing what it was like performing with arguably the greatest musician of all time. She also offers assurance that her next album will be a return to funk grooves and slap bass.

Featured in TIR Episode 134 (Part 1 of 3): One of the deepest purveyors of hardcore funk, who since the 1990s has flown farthest off the mainstream radar -- Phillip Jones, more commonly referred to as Phil the Funky Instrumentalist, and PTFI for short.

With throbbing bass, sputtering synth and psychedelic guitar and a sensibility perhaps best described as P-Funk meets Dr. Dre, PTFI has released five albums of his own and produced several for other artists. All of them are wall-to-wall heavy funk, and along the way he has worked with U.S. Funk Mob members such as George Clinton, Cordell Boogie Mosson, Tracey Lewis and Michael Hampton. His latest, The Future Is Now 2020, came out the first of this year.

Here PTFI shares how he became a lifelong funkateer, his musical inspirations and techniques, and why he will always remain true to uncompromising funk.
