Uptown funk exists because Bruno already explored the sound on unorthodox jukebox
Treasure was already a hit.
Edit: Equally important in Uptown Funk is Jeff Bhasker (808s and heartbreak, FUN, beyonce I Care) AND Bruno's old live gigging buddy who perfected flipping the 80s sounds he started on 808s and heartbreak by the time Mark's album came around..
