P2P | 30 January 2024 | 101.38 MB
Damon “DāM-FunK” Riddick (pronounced: Dame-Funk) is the epitome of funk and one of the genre's most passionate proselytizers, out to save it from devilish depictions of cartoonish caricature. To Dam, funk is a way of living, “a feeling of struggle and staying cool through it all.”
DāM-FunK grew up in the Los Angeles city/suburb of Pasadena. A ‘70s baby, he came of age in the era of the Uncle Jamm’s Army parties, of electro-pharaoh Egyptian Lover, of Prince’s purple reign. His parents nurtured his musical talents as a child, and by his teens, he mastered the drums, then the drum machine. A chance encounter led to an apprenticeship under funk songwriter/producer Leon Sylvers III (SOLAR Records). By the mid-90s G-Funk era in hip-hop, Dam found his musical skills in high demand by rappers such as Mack 10 and MC Eiht.
In 2006, DāM-FunK and a few friends launched the popular Funkmosphere party in L.A., bringing the boogie back. It was around then that Dam drew the attention of record label Stones Throw, a partnership that has seen the release of his debut Toeachizown (2009) and Invite the Light (2015), as well as an anthology of early productions, Adolescent Funk (2010), to Higher(2013) with Steve Arrington, and 7 Days of Funk (2013) with Snoop Dogg.
