DAM FUNK LIVE AT THE VINE BAR CIRCA 2008

Freethescene.com is known for telling you things on the LA underground scene before it happens. I can’t believe I didn’t drop this one. Well it happened already Dam Funk is huge. This is a DJ set I recorded of DAM right before I joined the Payday! crew. This set was dropped about a month before his debut 12″ release of the timeless hit Galactic Fun. If you didn’t know already, Dam Funk is the worlds Boogie Ambassador. This guy wrote the book on boogie, funk, and street cred. Homeboy was helping Mac 10 back in the day laying down shit. When you see this guy live as soon as he walks into the room all the sudden it gets funky. Just everything about this guy is Funk. When he DJs it’s all 100% wax original pressings, 2 turntables,an old school casio microphone (to keep the MC sounding backyard boogie status), and Los Angeles’s funkiest dude going to town on the decks. This is first DJ I have ever seen where I thought, “Thank GOD this guy exists, DJing is still progressing to another level, and this world isn’t doomed by sorority girls djing their Britney mashups through itunes”. Enough talking, enjoy this golden set, let me know what you think.
