<p style="text-align: justify;">Last month 1-O.A.K.'s <a href="http://drop.io/ltldrgn_1oakrmx">remix</a> of Little Dragon's "Blinking Pigs" was selected by the group themselves as the winner of Filter Magazine's remix contest. But when I thought about it, the irony of the remix being named&nbsp;"God Made Me Funky" could have been obvious to most crate diggers who might have instantly recognized the break, but there is a deeper irony.&nbsp;The reason being is that "<span id="lw_1267435447_0" class="yshortcuts"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAfVsuVEYD0">God Made Me Funky</a></span>" was originally recorded by Herbie Hancock's Headhunters as the music for a radio commercial for famed Oakland BBQ joint <a href="http://www.eandjbbq.com/">Everett &amp; Jones</a>. The legend has it that once the commercial started airing people liked it so much they began to request it thinking it was a song instead of a commercial. And as with 1-O.A.K.'s <a href="http://drop.io/ltldrgn_1oakrmx">remix</a>, it's the deep funk of the drums that makes the song go. Those are the drums of Oakland's own and Headhunters' drummer&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mikeclarkmusic.com/bio.html" target="_blank"><span id="lw_1267435447_1" class="yshortcuts">Mike Clark</span></a>, who confirms this story in his interview in the&nbsp;<span id="lw_1267435447_2" class="yshortcuts">Wax Poetics</span>&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.waxpoetics.com/2008/04/wax-poetics-issue-28/" target="_blank"><span id="lw_1267435447_3" class="yshortcuts">Issue #28</span></a>. &nbsp;Town Business indeed!&nbsp;</p>
