DâM-FunK


Dam-Funk (not gonna keep typin that lil accent thingy on top of the a) was introduced to me by a sista of mine who knows me way too well. Hailing from L.A., my homie Dam is known for that modern electro-funky boogie sound so native to Southern California. He is the lone member of his "band" representing himself on all instruments (which includes the KEYTAR), engineering, and production. Just try to imagine all of the goodness your 50 year old parents listened to when they were in college, modern clean riffs, and add some sun to your day while your driving west on the 10....that's the music of Dam-Funk. I heard something about a venue in Culver City that hosts his talent on Monday's Funkmosphere, but don't know full details. I also hear Dam is out globally making that yayper on tour right now. Glad to know he is spreading that funky butter all over the dry toasted world.

This music made me wake up from musical stagnancy and realize creativity still exists. Also, shout out to Stones Throw Records for representin boogie oogie funk!
