masterVOLUME

"Master Volume" is a collaborative project born from the encounter of two Parisian producers united by their love for funk, specifically the 80's Minneapolis music scene, epitomized by artists produced by Prince, such as "The Time," "The Family," and beyond Prince's tutelage, a band like Mint Condition.

On one side, we have the producer/beatmaker "Lemy Leopard," who has already honed his craft in producing a kind of New Jack Swing 2.0, characterized by edgy, syncopated beats that captivate the body, sometimes approaching the distinct energy of Minneapolis-made funk. On the other, the composer/arranger Buddy Sativa, whose stylistic range, although very broad and somewhat elusive, is fundamentally based on influences from hip-hop, funk, and jazz.

Following an interview of Buddy by Lemy, a camaraderie formed over their mutual love for this music, leading to their first collaboration on the instrumental track "Master Volume 1" as a tribute to this genre. Pleased with the outcome, the two decided to take their collaboration further, resulting in an EP, the second track of which you can already enjoy."

MasterVOLUME is back!

This time, they’re groovier, funkier, and fresher than ever.

MasterVOLUME is the electrifying result of two Parisian producers (Lemy Leopard & Buddy Sativa) joining forces, united by their deep love for funk. Inspired by the golden sound of the 80s Minneapolis music scene, this project pays homage to the artists who defined an era. Think Prince and his legendary productions for The Time and The Family, and even bands like Mint Condition, who carried the torch beyond the Purple One's reign.

With MasterVOLUM3, the duo delivers a modern twist on that timeless funk sound—packed with infectious grooves, irresistible rhythms, and the kind of energy that takes you straight to the dancefloor.

Get ready. The funk is alive, and it’s louder than ever.
