Dam Funk – On and On
L.A’s Dam Funk is dropping his debut album on Stones Throw later this year, but it wouldn’t be an ST release if there wasn’t something special to it and in this case it’s the fact that the release will be available as a 5 LP, with 2h30 of music!
As L.A’s ambassador of Boogie Funk, Dam Funk’s made a name for himself in the last few years as a purveyor of some of the best sounds, rocking dancefloors worldwide and dropping tracks to much acclaim and plenty of support across the board. Accordingly his debut LP is awaited by many, us included, and the first taste of it is here now in the form of the LAtrik EP, the first of five that make up the album.
LAtrick is available on Stones Throw as a digital release, with more to come. Click the link to buy and look below for official words from Dam and ST as well as a download of the track ‘On & On’ taken from the EP. Big thanks to Stones Throw for letting us share it with you.
From Dam-Funk himself:
“LAtrik is more of my ‘electric style’ (hence the title of this volume) which is influenced by, yet never bitin’, such great artist as Juan Atkins (Cybotron) & Prince to name just a few. It also highlights the more Modern sounds of L.A. based Funk right now with instrumentals like ‘Toeachizown’ & vocal tracks like ‘Mirrors’ which, I feel are distinctly my sound, humbly speaking. I hope U dig it, as this was made 4 U! Stay tuned 4 Volumes: 2. 3, 4, & 5. – D-F”
From ST:
“Dam-Funk is currently putting finishing touches on his debut album Toeachizown which will be released this Fall as 5/LP set – two and a half hours of music – with CD version to follow. Toeachizown is a modern funk album, created in five distinct parts: LAtrik, Fly, Life, Hood, Sky. Stones Throw will be releasing a few of these volumes digitally prior to the vinyl & CD release in Fall. LAtrik is available now exclusively at http://stonesthrow.com.”
