experimental electronic music

kutmah wird anfang august sein lange erwartetes albumdebüt “the revenge of black belly button!” (oder trobbb!) via big dada veröffentlichen. mit dabei ist eine lange liste hochkarätiger gäste, darunter gonjasufi, jonwayne, natureboy flako, ta raach, jeremiah jae, zeroh, zackey force funk, n8noface, sach, akello g light und dj chris p cuts. gemeinsam erzeugen sie experimentell-medidative zen-loops, schrullig berstende beats und abstrakte raps, glasklaren punk und noise und sogar folk- und blues-inspirierte nummern.
gepriesen von flying lotus als -einer der einflussreichsten djs des beat-movements-, werden kutmahs fähigkeiten und seine vision als produzent auf “trobbb!” in den vordergrund gerückt. dabei ist das album eine äußerst sentimentale angelegenheit, die stark seine vergangenheit referenziert, aber auch der zukunft entgegenblickt.

zackey force funk was born into this wild world in tucson, az in 1974. in and out of prison since the age of 17, zff began producing on pirated software his brother gave to him once he had given up a life of crime to focus on writing tunes and raising his family. first discovered by kutmah back in the golden era of myspace, zackey’s signature “force funk sound” swiftly grabbed the attention of a number of formidable producers. as these tunes were scattered across various labels, finding their homes on their respective collaborator’s projects, zff continued to hone his style, delving deeper into the psychedelic future funk realm of which he has created for himself. the fruits of his discipline all add up to “electron don” hnr52 a 15-track collection of early productions that serves as the initial transmission of a fantastical mind that has many more stories to tell. “electron don” gathers together various unreleased and classic tracks recorded by zackey force funk circa 2009-2011 in tucson, az. included here are a treasure-trove of classic productions by the electron don himself, as well as tracks by luminaries salva, mike gao, lorn, jellphonic, cupp cave, crimekillz, mark lowe and paolo xz.
