XL Middleton - Xl Middleton / Eddy Funkster

Release Date:08/12/2016;Notes:Limited vinyl LP pressing. 2016 release. As co-founders of the label MoFunk Records, and the production team behind one of modern funk's signature anthems, "Press Play" (featuring Zackey Force Funk), XL Middleton + Eddy Funkster's album is truly an opus long overdue. In sound, it draws heavily from LA's musical well over the last several generations, bringing forth hard electro funk styles on "Show Some Respect," bouncy lowrider funk on cuts like "Solicitation," and giving a progressive nod to ‘90s g-funk on the LBC'd out "California Fly," which features Domino of "Getto Jam" fame. Furthermore, XL + EF channel the more modern feel of ambient, pad-heavy funk on songs like "On Our Way To Funkmosphere." In spirit, it's more of a P-Funkesque party, as the entire MoFunk roster plus extended family join in variously on all of the album's seven songs, contributing everything from vocals to guitar and talkbox. This is kind of party you'll want to join in - an ongoing celebration known as modern funk.;Track List:1. Mofunk Anthem (Feat. Moniquea Diamond Ortiz);2. Show Some Respect;3. Solicitation (Feat.
