Free Funk

Free Funk is a style of funk music that emerged in the late 1960s and early 1970s. It is characterized by its heavy use of improvisation, syncopated rhythms, and distorted electric instruments. Free Funk is an attempt to expand the boundaries of funk music and to create a more open and experimental sound. Its influences come from a variety of genres, including jazz, blues, soul, and rock. It was developed in response to the growing popularity of funk music and was seen as an attempt to push the genre forward and make it more creative. Free Funk is often seen as the precursor to funk-rock and fusion. It has been cited as an influence on later artists such as Parliament/Funkadelic, Miles Davis, and Herbie Hancock.
