While I've been working more on a nice and easy hip hop instrumental lately, the "chocopop" showed up while i used my itunes in library in random mode.
Somehow I felt like doing something new and I gave him some new drums, percussions, some instruments and efx.

Hope you dig it.

D-Funk - 'Do It Right'
Grits N Gravy [Night Disco Vol 2 // GNG023]

Over at Grits N Gravy HQ we’ve (still) got the disco bug. In fact we’ve had it for years. Far before any other bugs that took over the world. The disco bug is the one that comes out & shines to the fabulous. It started off in New York then spread all over the world & now from Sydney, Australia the 2nd installment of Night Disco is upon us.

It’s been a little while since we’ve released music on Grits N Gravy. We’ve not been idle, far from it. We’ve been biding our time & waiting. Waiting for the time the discos are open & the people are once again dancing. So with disco dancing in mind Grits N Gravy label co-boss D-Funk bring you 3 upbeat slices of 21st century original disco music.

Night Disco Vol 2 will be released on Grits N Gravy across all sites on the 2nd September ‘22.

Night Disco Vol 2

Spotify

Do It Right [Grits N Gravy // Night Disco Vol 2]

This project was born out of a late-night, "toilet philosophy" discussion in a nightclub with two friends active in the tech house scene. We were reflecting on boring, disposable club music.
The EP was generated by AI as a raw, quick-fire response, but equal time was spent on the discussion as for making the actual music. It challenges the idea that musical legacy must be painstakingly produced to be serious. This is a testament to ideas over sterile production value.

This is a plea to the scene: Don't treat genuine emotions like waste.

Tracklist:
Two step forward two step backward
Let it go
Don't drain emotions to toilet
Legacy
Toilet Philosophy
