Blues Baby September 26, 2014Jules 1 CommentAwwww yyyeeeaaa!! Some bad ass blues-y business goin on here. I love the trippy effects at the intro that blossom into some groovy gravelly bass carried through the rest of the song. It’s a perfect seasoning for sampling those blues lyrics. There’s a slow motion, stoned kind of feel that just makes you close your eyes and smiiiiiile. This beauty right here is a collaboration of Adam Deitch (drummer for Pretty Lights), Break Science, and Manic Focus. You can definitely hear the signature sounds of each artist melding into a rather fine specimen for the electronic music world! It’s only their first babe together and I’m already holding my breath for the next one! Blues, Chill, Electronic"Break Science", "Manic Focus", blues, funk, pretty lights, you gotta moveShare : Tweet
That’s Funkedub. June 6, 2014Summer 1 CommentI knew when I saw that Gramatik had shared an Opiuo song it was going to be Oh so sicK, but I didn’t know that I wasn’t going to be able to stop listening to these two latest tracks. Snorkle has that solid Opiuo thump, kick beat backing up some Gramatik grade funk and bright cascading beeps, doubt it could get better. They’re still retaining those delicious slippery wet sounds but have added some new interesting ones, for instance, Quack Fat has a legit Tin Cup vibe going on. I have a feeling that tonight’s show at King King is not to be missed, especially if you’ve yet to catch Opiuo live. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-do-lab-presents-opiuo-soulular-and-gridwork-tickets-11563700339 http://opiuo.com/ Funkedubdubstep, funk, Funkedub, gramatik, King King, Opiuo, Tin Cup, wetShare : Tweet
I love Foreplay. April 29, 2014Jules 1 CommentSo Kill Paris just dropped his Foreplay EP today. I ran out to my balcony and screamed at someone walking by “FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSSSsssss!!!!!!!” ..I didn’t really do this but I wanted to. I’ve loved Kill Paris for a while now. First time was at the King King for my birthday last year in May and he blew my damn face off. Also, my friends hassled that guy so badly til he finally (and begrudgingly) wished me a happy birthday. (THANK YOU BTW AND I AM SORRY FOR LOVING YOU SO!!!!) I was super stoked to see him at Coachella the first weekend and I definitely didn’t give a shit about any other headliner. Again, he did not disappoint. The energy at the Do Lab was absolutely ridiculous, the wind was blowing like crazy and everyone was just losing their minds. That guy just knows how to command a crowd! Yes it was pure heaven and the BEST way to end the weekend. The entire EP is funky and fun. Very distinctive Kill Paris sounds and energy that will not disappoint. My fav is the Silence of Heartbreak. He is sooo good at those feels but in an upbeat way… how does he do it?! “Silence Of Hearbreak Feat.

Your money’s no good here, bitch. March 3, 2014Summer 1 CommentThis glitched out remix of Pegboard Nerds’ High Roller from Astronaut has got funky Seventies guitar and bass with zips and lasers, what more could you ask for on a Monday?… I only wish they had captured just a little bit more of the reverberating growl of “high rolla” from the original. Regardless, this one will get you moving and hopefully chase away any of those Monday blues.

Bangin’ Blues January 22, 2014Jules No CommentThis song is a great 1, 2 if you ask me, with a blues-y intro and dropping into some straight up bass funk with a damn HARMONICA and BANJO?! I am so into it that I can’t get out. Bass, Blues, Funkblues, DEFUNK, Em Casey, funkShare : Tweet

back up plan… to back up my back up plan. January 1, 2014Summer No CommentSkii Tour & The Funk Hunters got together and decided that everyone needs a back up plan. This beat with reverb and slide wistle kind of buzz is retarded good, not to mention awesome lyrics and back up vox. Plus a little swing if that suits your fancy. If you don’t start moving when you hear this, call the paramedics, you may be dead inside.
