thread of DâM-FunK

cuz there are only so many minutes of music that can be on a cd?

the track lengths don't look to be that big of a deal tbh - "search 4 funk's future" & "LAtrifying" seem to have been cut down a few minutes but every other track just has a few seconds on at the end and i'm sure that's because he had to mix all the songs into each other differently than on the EP & because of time constraints

a few seconds off*

he's done a collab with Trus'me on the latter's new album...sounding pretty good from Trus'me's myspace. http://www.myspace.com/trusme

(oh it's also a re-visioning of WasNotWas' 'Wheel Me Out.')

in with a late pass but yeah toeachizown is fuckin rad

the fader feature mentioned that he was rehearsing w a full band playing his stuff, presumably for a tour

!!!

i don't listen to much instrumental stones throw type ish but dam-funk is like the first dude where i really feel emotion, or at least identify with the emotion - the long, winding, whiny synth lines are so evocative imo

vast and warm funk. good stuff.

<3 his mad ass

The Nite Jewel track was pretty hot, hope they do more stuff

Nite Funk*

Every time I see the album title I think it's some weird faux-germanic spelling of "Touchdown"

volume 3 is growing on me so much. i love how each volume can be perfect for me depending on the mood i'm in

ahaha rev is who pipecock was talking abt upthread apparently

hahaha

that video is great

I dig him for like one track at a time and don't mind his shit coming up on shuffle, but way too samey to listen to for longer than that.

i should probably try listening to the rest of this guy's output but on the one ep i only like one track particularly, although i LOVE that track (hood pass intact).

the one ep i've heard. jeeeeez

Dam & live band performing "Mirrors" on some xtreme sports show.

apparently dam has a new song (9 mins!) called "don't let the smile fool u" that passion of the weiss posted but the link is dead now & i didn't see anyone else posting it, so he might've let an exclusive slip by accident or something

seems odd to day this about anybody, but he sings much better live than on record

damn can't find it...looks like it was leaked like feb 6th tho?

he's also produced a track on fatima's new ep (fatima = the girl of shafiq husayn's "lil girl" last year) - it's really gorgeous

LA needs one more blunted 80s revivalist besides funk + nite jewel and i can start pitching a trend story

playing optimo this sunday :O

feeling this joint he produced for fatima

(her whole mind travellin' ep is rather good btw)

xp. I don't even want to think how stowed optimo is going to be since this is the 4th last or whatever.

and it's a bank holiday. I'll be there but it's bound to get ugly

damn, forgot about that, i work daft shifts so don't tend to notice that type of thing.

I was serious. Afaik the only Human League songs I've heard before are "Don't You Want Me" and "Human".

being boiled is a tuuune.
