Mister Super Juice is a South East based cinematic instrumental funk band comprising of up to 7 pieces, specialising in extended funk soundtracks and off the cuff improvisation.
The influence of the fantastic film scores of Lalo Schifrin (Bullit, Mission Impossible, Enter The Dragon, Dirty Harry, Kelly's Heroes, THX 1138), Roy Budd (Get Carter, The Black Windmill, The Marseille Contract, Who Dares Wins, The Stone Killer) and Curtis Mayfield's Superfly to name but a few are plain to hear in the bands compositions and improvisations.
The soundtrack concept allows the band the freedom to delve into all areas and sub-genres of funky music from cool jazz funk or New Orleans style grooves to psychedelic funk and acid rock tinged improvisation and beyond.
