Event Description
Bay Area modern funk sorcerer B. Bravo has assembled a crew of intergalactic badmen to form The Starship Connection - a synthesizer funk / future bass quartet featuring Bay Area instrumentalists Teeko (F.A.M.E./FourOne Funk), Daren Grant (Bayonics), and Bob Menacho (Bayonics). In addition to playing classic B. Bravo joints like Midnite and Computa Love, the crew will be performing brand new original material on their sprawling array of analog gear. Their debut EP (Jointly produced by Bravo & Teeko) is set for release in early 2012 on Frite Nite Records.
K-Maxx, aka Ken Hopkins, lives for the music. He's a Bay Area original from San Francisco who's been involved with artists such as Dan the Automator, Too Short, Lenny Williams (Tower of Power), King Tech (Wake Up Show) and more. K-Maxx hosts the seminal "Ghetto Gumbo" radio show which can be heard Friday Nights, 10 PM til 2 AM on KPOO in San Francisco. Being comfortable making hip hop and R & B has led Ken to start creating his own boogie funk sounds he remembers from his youth, culminating in a forthcoming single for East Bay record label Sound Boutique Records. Owned and run by Sweater Funk's Sean Boogie, Sound Boutique Records will be releasing a single for his tune "Super Dunk" b/w "Love is Coming".
