Saw Dam-Funk live last night

Do check his show if you get the chance! excited

He started his set spinning some face-scrunching `82 era funk records (original vinyl, folks), then segued into his own music. The moment that it switched wasn't as easy to determine as one might think, because of his authentic production approach. thumbs up!

Dam-Funk sings a little bit on his album, but he was full-on whistle reppin' it live soulfully over some of his best instrumentals (e.g. "Hood Pass Intact"). headbang I was reaaaaally feeling it.

He even played some brand new schitt cool shhh

He also went back into some original funk boogie records that I am pretty sure no one there had heard, mixed with some faves lurking.

Funkier than your grannie's pannies disbelief <---- funk face

Would love to see him one day, I really dig his music, especially since I grew up listening to that type of music.Too bad there´s not more of him on YouTube.

The second video sounds OK. It sounds kinda like Paul Hardcastle meets Prince.
