Music
Part of a Doctoral Study in Music Conducting by Davaron Edwards titled "Reimagining the Wind Band Through the Lens of Blaxploitation Films". The film is set to the musical composition by Omar Thomas titled "The Low-Down Brown Get-Down" which "is the soundtrack for a nonexistent blaxploitation film. It pulls from various sounds and styles of African-American folk music, such as funk, R&B, soul, early hip hop, the blues, and even film noir to stitch together its 'scenes.' The title pulls from and is inspired by 'post-jive' African-American Vernacular English (AAVE). The word 'Brown' in the title, in addition to its reference to none other than the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, whose most-famous licks and bass lines pepper the intro and recur throughout the piece, also refers to the melanin of the people who created these sounds."
