Moodymann, now this, DJ Kicks is on a bit of a roll...

this DJ Kicks set is incredible

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

I dunno if its "officially" been outed as Dam Funk yet but it definitely is

Nice, I was just listening to STFU (1) last week

ain't he doing a real studio album this year?
― frogbs, Friday, 17 May 2019 17:59 (four years ago) link
"deeper" is almost his version of minimal techno

just walked home from the bar in (fucking finally) 79 degree bedstuy jamming the new ep and it may have been a 2019 highlight

“awaiting the light” from private life ii is like the spacey intro to Arnie Love’s “I think I’m out of your life” by Arnie Love stretched out over 5 minutes <3

i highly recommend any and all Moon B records
― brimstead, Thursday, 28 October 2021 02:10 (two years ago) link
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
― frogbs, Thursday, 28 October 2021 02:43 (two years ago) link
was able to get a copy of Invite the Light for $20. would call it a steal but it looks like most copies are similarly priced. its such a good album too, kind of like his own Songs in the Key of Life in how it stretches his sound to every corner he can take it. packaging is super cool too, ultra shiny, almost like a hologram. all three records are white with different color labels. actually kind of sucks that so many copies are out there, suggests this was a gamble that didn't work. doesn't mean you have to miss out though

Nice one for the collection
