Band/artist history
In August 2002, a new section on Prince.org was created just for musicians. Within that section, members began comparing and critiquing each other's songs, primarily similar in style to Prince's genre - an updated version of 60's and 70's funk, a style that Prince referred to as "New Funk".
One of the groups' more prolific artists, Jason Dodson, made an open invitation for a world- wide collaboration with any artists from the Prince.org musician's community. He called it the New Funk Order. Soon the decision was made to instead create a compilation cd of original music with a few collaborations. The 18 artists that came together covered many styles of music, making the New Funk Order a truly Prince-inspired concept.
Jason then started work on formulating the NFO into a non-profit organization for artists dedicated to preserving the freedom of music. The New Funk Order is a musical movement, a rebuttal to the political "New World Order" that encourages corporate globalization and the exploitation of art. The New Funk Order demonstrates that artists can provide free music to the public, without the corporate control of a record company. Music is not free. Radio stations can only play a certain percentage of artists that are signed and record companies don't exactly sign artists these days based on artistic merit. The New Funk Order seeks to bind the greed and lies of the past and loose a new freedom in the land of sound.
The online music community newfunkorder.com gives home and opportunity to talent from around the world. Marching on with the message "Just as the gift was freely given unto us, in turn it is freely given to you," they carry Prince's "Free the music" strike against the music industry forward.
