Dam-Funk @ Bowery Ballroom
This appearance marked Dam-Funk’s first performance with a live band in NYC (according to PBW), and the “ambassador of boogie funk” turned the Bowery Ballroom into his very own Funkmosphere. Lazer lights, electronic voices, synthesizers and the chronic smoke-filled air all intensified the energy, the aura, that Dam-Funk projected single-handedly through is performance.

An Artist State of Mind
Being an artist in nature, means to be expressive, emotional, and to constantly shape our revolving reality. Essentially, we make something out of nothing; our detail is razor sharp, and sometimes we are too critical that it’s hypocrital.

A few days ago I had decided to that I was to unplug myself from the Twitter matrix. I had an opportunity to do some spring cleaning on some social networks, and close some of those annoying accounts down.
