Free Week w/ Dâm-Funk, the Vapor Caves, Austin Boogie Crew [outside]
A standout out-of-town addition to the no-cost concert bonanza, Resound Presents rings in legendary Los Angeles producer Dâm-Funk. All in the name, the prolific boogie ambassador epitomizes modern funk – from defining mid-Nineties hip-hop instrumentation to Stones Throw-supported solo artistry, including revelatory anthology revisits like 2010’s Adolescent Funk. The rest of the evening pinpoints Austin upholders of the genre: electro-funk-influenced duo Vapor Caves, combining vocalist Yadira Brown and producer BoomBaptist, and record collective Austin Boogie Crew, devoted to “soulful, synth-heavy, club-friendly” sounds.
