"Known as Los Angeles Ambassador of Boogie Funk, Dâm-Funk represents the citizens of the Funkmosphere. Headquartered in the Culver City section of L.A., Dâm (pronounced: Dame as in Damon) spent the last few years cultivating a musical renaissance rooted in the early-80s styles known as Boogie, Modern Soul and Electro-Funk.

For Dâm, Funk is not a fad - its a way of life. When you listen to beats like the one above, which is the first time many people heard Dâm-Funk on wax, its clear that he might well have been responsible for some of those OG g-funk lines on some of our favourite records too.

As a DJ/selector, Dâm attracts the most discerning Boogie Funk aficionados to his Monday-night Funkmosphere parties. But its not just collectors at the bar toasting to the melodic sounds. Anyone who grooves to the likes of Slave, Aurra, early Prince, Prelude Records and the like, will get a dose of those groups unknown contemporaries more obscure but equally Funk-worthy.

Earlier this year Dâm-Funk's debut 12″ dropped on Stones Throw Recordings with stunning artwork and two amazing tunes - Sidewayz and Burgundy City, the latter being one of the most heavily rinsed records on Benji B's Deviation Radio Show in 2008 (link below).

The new Boogie sound of LA has come to life thanks to Dam-Funks vintage synths and futuristic vision. He plays all the instruments and uses no sequencers no computers".
