It's a good one, always found some good rare tracks in his mixes you won't hear anywhere else.

Besides this record collection thing above, which is so great, he just dropped a little EP called Glyde 2Nite:

oh damn...the Hood Pass Intact EP is incredible. D-F's stuff is really great I've come to realize but he's better when he works with a vocalist. new album looks to be full of that kinda thing which is a good sign!

^^awesome thank you! (still need to hear the mix you posted earlier though)
digging the new album a lot, much more energetic party feel imo, less of the spacier out-there funk of "come on outside" or "searchin 4 funk's future" which are two of my favorite tunes from toeachizown so i'm a little bummed it doesn't quite have that spacey vibe (though "acceptance" on the new one works pretty well)
ariel pink tune is one of the weakest here, pretty much exclusively b/c of ariel lol (and i am a fan of AP at least the pre-before today albums)

He just did a 2-track single with Ekkah as well.
"Space Between Us" is the better of the two songs, but "What's Up" is the only one on Youtube.

enjoying the DJ-Kicks, it sounds p much exactly what you would imagine a Dam Funk DJKicks to sound like, which is good.
― socka flocka-jones (man alive), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 03:05 (seven years ago) link
Surprised there's almost no discussion of "Invite the Light" on here. is it because this thread is hard to search for or are people tuckered out on the dude's sound? I'm on listen #4 now, it gets a bit better each time, the longer tunes like "O.B.E." and especially "Floating On Air" are excellent, I also dig "Surveillance Escape" for its sheer campiness. The Ariel Pink tune pretty much bites it though, I'm afraid.
― frogbs, Wednesday, 28 December 2016 18:33 (seven years ago) link
Thanks for the reminder - slept on that one! The Nite-Funk EP is really nice.

Don't love it as much as Toeachizown or the Steve Arrington joint, but that's just relative points on a scale of stuff I love
― Rock Wokeman (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 December 2016 18:48 (seven years ago) link
wasn't a huge fan of the Arrington album - it is nice but to me it just feels like he's adding lyrics to already-finished D-F tracks, several of which I'm pretty sure were released already. The title track rules though. 7 Days of Funk is pretty nice.
― frogbs, Wednesday, 28 December 2016 18:53 (seven years ago) link
Arrington is such a fun lyricist and I love his voice so I feel like it's his record as much as Damon's. Funkzilla is fine too but just a bit lesser on my scale
― Rock Wokeman (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 28 December 2016 19:10 (seven years ago) link
I dig his SoundCloud funk better than the albums and I'm not sure why. He's got a recent one up there, "I smoke music"... I mean that's the greatest title ever.

will check it out, everything on this comp is great but a lot of these artists have only released like two singles
vinyl version is quite a bit different, only 12 tracks but a few of the tracks show up in different versions & it's unmixed so most tracks are like a minute or two longer. "True To Yourself" is like 8 minutes longer
