FAT ASS.

FAT ASS.

Everyone sing along. London funky too.

But you’re only allowed to download this if you promise to buy the entire album.

Sorry, them’s the rules.

Hello.

I haven’t ripped or posted buggery since… November last year.

I sort of moved country. I left my vinyl in the old country.

I’m back in the old country again. It’s nice.

I’m still infused with the power of UNGH.

But listen. This is very good. The EP is called +

This is Wiseblood, the alias of one Christopher Laufman from Pittsburgh. Fetch:

All I know is that this music:

a) is fucking brilliant

b) is completely weird

c) reminded me of the first time I heard any of my favourite music.

I absolutely love this. It’s so, so odd. Huge snare drums, synthesisers played wrong, and… actually, EVERYTHING PLAYED WRONG. Some of the most exciting new music I’ve heard in ages. Like sort of Prince and the Animal Collective and a lo-fi Cee-Lo Green.

Human funny singing! VIVA!

ATTENTION PEOPLE OF LONDON: NU POSITION

THIS IS HOW YOU DO IT PROPERLY.

Oh, they laughed at us. They didn’t get the snare drums. They didn’t understand that ‘UNGH’ is both noun, verb and adjective.

But we have the last laugh. Come and laugh with us. HERE:

Where did all the snare drums in the world go?

CHRIS PHILIPS, K2 AND DJ KARIZMA FUCKING STOLE THEM.

All the world’s stolen snares and sex noises will be at Cargo on Rivington Street, EC2 on Wednesday 23 December. You may arrive at 8:00. Then there is a party, probably the best in Europe. And then ugly lights, everybody inspected in the small hours of Thursday morning.

DJs for the affair Chris Philips and K2 (dear old friends of mine with a grasp on the funk firmer than that of Silvio Berlusconi on the electoral system and judiciary of Italy) and DJ KARIZMA, flown in and pampered for the evening.

I will be on the VIP blowjobs-this-way guest list, because I deserve to be.

But I will not be attending, because I just moved to fucking Copenhagen and I will be at my girlfriend’s mum’s kill me please

Jesse Johnson: Verbal Penetration.

Dear human beings:

GOOD GOD. UNGH!

The new album is here and it is a motherfucking monster. Excuse my French.

A bit of Curtis Mayfield in the mix. Jazz. Weirdness. Soul. A bit of monster heavy funk. The guy’s made progress.

Go and buy it. Because Jesse needs to get paid.

Paul Laurence: Make My Baby Happy

Bad haircut. Heavy funk.

I’m going to have to rip the album. Props to whoever posted this to YouTube.

Craig Holliman Rest in Peace

theheaviestfunkintheworld — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 19:32:33 +0000

I just learned that Craig Holliman of Cinema recently passed away.

He made a classic album, not just of Minneapolis funk but of… modern soul music. Bam. Done. Simple.

A really, really nice man from the little I knew of him, too, and condolences (belated) to all who knew him.

If anyone knows where to find the video of Put You in My Pocket please let me know.

I’ll keep posting this link until everyone’s heard it.
