Dj. Funk-Master. Tarot reader. Chako Mercado!!! The Loveless Comedy Show would be 99% less fun and bumpin without @chakifunkwizard

The special thank yous in my new album. People that mean a lot to me!

@chakifunkwizard is an electro-funk artist blasting out raw electro-funk, basement synth freakouts, and basslines that hit like a brick through a windshield. Performing as a one-man alien funk unit, his live show sits somewhere between a dance party, performance art, and a full-on cosmic ritual. His latest release, “From L.A. to the Bay” on High Occulture Records, is a career-spanning 12" packed with essential cuts and three brand-new tracks aimed straight at DA FUTURE. It is all killer, no filler – punk-funk, synth burners, and deep grooves. “All of this material is appearing on 12" vinyl for the first time,” notes Chaki. “And every track has been newly remastered by mastering legend Shawn Hatfield at Audible Oddities, which gave everything new life and extra THUMP.” The album also features guitar work from Steve Bartek of Oingo Boingo and was pressed by Third Man Records, delivering a loud, full-bodied sound built for DJs, collectors, and anyone who takes their funk seriously. “Plus the digital version has my new track ‘F*CK ICE’ featuring El Vez and Black Bibles!” adds Chaki. “This one’s for everyone who’s supported me over the years – the funkateers and the Frankensteins.” Order 'From L.A. To The Bay' from now on via @highocculture here: /album/from-l-a-to-the-bay-2 . . . . .
