Ep. 22 - Dâm-FunK




The House List Podcast show

Summary: Peter Agoston reports from the field in this very special addition to 'The House List' podcast (have you subscribed yet?)... We have a most outstanding guest this week! The world renowned Modern-Funk pioneer, producer/multi-instrumentalist, live-show takr, record breaker, Pasadena's native song, Damon Riddick aka Dâm-FunK. Since Peter and Dam have worked closely for years, we felt it would be a bit more creative to talk about stories not related to the many projects they've been a part of .... so why not start with your first ever DJ gig (in Eagle Rock, opening up if you will, for Kam) and go from there. While preparing for a club-date in Brooklyn, NY that night, the two guys linked up in the wee hours to talk high school, growing up in L.A., Damon's humble beginnings drumming in comedy-club housebands and how influential the late, great Ricky Harris was during that phase in his career. It's a candid, light-hearted, humor filled chat between old buds. We hope you can dig on that... We open the episode with material from Dam's latest EP 'Break Out' (available on Glydezone Recordings), and close with a collaborative song Dam did with the late Junie Morrison entitled "Magic". Special shout out to Keith Eday and PB Wolf. Don't forget to subscribe! You can find The House List on iTunes, Stitcher, SoundCloud and Google Play. Thanks for your support & keep tuning in!
