Toeachizown

Nu slechts € 17,99 These two discs slightly whittle a five-volume series of 35- to 40-minute LPs, a generous amount of modern--yet unapologetically nostalgic--synth funk from a former session musician who does it all in his Los Angeles garage. D m-Funk fits within the domain of future/past left-field R&B, alongside Sa-Ra and J*Davey, however, his inspirations are relatively focused, narrowed down to the fallout caused by synthesizer wizards Bernie Worrell and Junie Morrison that affected funk's developments for a few years, from the tail-end of the '70s to the brink of Chicago house. What also sets D m apart from his contemporaries is a total reliance on, and mastery of, old gear; that's how some of these tracks swing like the best of Mtume's '80s albums while bouncing, kicking, and squirming like Zapp and early Prince. A highly specialized sound that serves one purpose--unwinding, basically--should lend itself to listener fatigue after 140 minutes, but most of the 24 cuts do distinguish themselves with repeat listens. D m's warm synthesizers jab, ripple, glide, and writhe over an array of chunky machine rhythms, from the twilight slide of ''Candy Dancin''' (with a nod to Mary Jane Girls' ''Candy Man'') to the psychedelic flutter of ''Mirrors.'' Some of the melodies, like the twinkling figures throughout ''The Sky Is Ours'' and the low-profile ''10 West,'' where D m concocts an extended coda to Kleeer's ''Tonight,'' are nothing short of gorgeous. Whether you approach this as a longtime funk fanatic, as someone who dabbled in G-funk (DJ Quik, Dr. Dre) back in the early '90s, or as a fan of the Neptunes' airiest productions, TOEACHIZOWN should have the same positively mood-altering (or enhancing) effect. It's got a good beat and you can drive 15-miles-per-hour to it.
