Part 1, LAtrik, available now!

Dam-Funk is currently putting finishing touches on his debut album Toeachizown which will be released this Fall as 5/LP set – two and a half hours of music – with CD version to follow.

Toeachizown is a modern funk album, created in five distinct parts: LAtrik, Fly, Life, Hood, Sky. Stones Throw will be releasing a few of these volumes digitally prior to the vinyl & CD release in Fall. LAtrik is available now exclusively at stonesthrow.com.

From Dam-Funk himself: “LAtrik is more of my ‘electric style’ (hence the title of this volume) which is influenced by, yet never bitin’, such great artist as Juan Atkins (Cybotron) & Prince to name just a few. It also highlights the more Modern sounds of L.A. based Funk right now with instrumentals like ‘Toeachizown’ & vocal tracks like ‘Mirrors’ which, I feel are distinctly my sound, humbly speaking. I hope U dig it, as this was made 4 U! Stay tuned 4 Volumes: 2. 3, 4, & 5. – D-F”

LAZERBITCH is not your ordinary outfit. Before they became what they are today, LAZERBITCH’s Libby Picken worked together with some respected names in electronic music such as John B (and we think he’s great, by the way), Paul Oakenfold, Donald Glaude, and T-1000. Picken also worked with drum and bass producers Tech Itch, Kraken and DJ Dara.

Having good taste in music and having the privilege of working with top producers as a foundation will certainly help to form a better final product. Not only is LAZERBITCH cranking out catchy tracks, but the subtle edits on Picken’s voice give the group the modern twist it needs to be set apart from being  just another 80′s influenced band or run-of-the-mill synth pop group. LAZERBITCH will keep you guessing on their style from one track to the next.

So, take some cool synth pop sounds, 80′s influence, solid electronic instrumentals then add Picken’s charming and melodic voice, and you’re getting closer to the LAZERBITCH sound. The group doesn’t stop at that, though. We hear some punk sound in “High School Shootout,” and then if you visit the LAZERBITCH Myspace page and give a listen to the “Pussylips” track, you’ll see they also have an electro/hip-hop feel as well.

Big up to LAZERBITCH and we’re looking forward to future releases.

WHAT? OKAY! Lil’ Jon mixtapes. See for yourself if they’re your thing. Lil’ John collaborated with DJ Spider to make mixtapes Rockbox Vol. 1 and Rockbox Vol. 2. Volume 1 features rock and Volume 2 features nothin’ but that New Wave shit, baby. So, does this mean Lil’ Jon is attempting to follow non-mainstream trends? It’s kind of hard for Lil’ Jon to break out of the mainstream reputaiton he has, but we’re definitely feeling the Nu Wave mixtape more than the rock. Sorry rock fans.

Overall, we find Lil’ Jon laughable, but his fame and ability to create a marketable image and form of music are undeniable. After all, he’s the “King of Krunk.” Ya heard?
