Damu The Fudgemunk ‎– Brooklyn Flower

Brooklyn Flower is a privately commissioned project in conjunction with Slice-of-Spice Records, and ReDef Records.

The title track is a reworking of the Ramsey Lewis and Minnie Ripperton versions of the Charles Stepney classic, Les Fleurs. The intention of this track and project is a dedication for the birth of my daughter. These samples, and others deemed relevant, were referenced to Damu The Fudgemunk, when the project was first commissioned in late 2009, and as expected he produced something quite extraordinary and sublime. This is not a track he created for himself, or intended for commercial release.

The record has a full color cover, illustrated by legendary De La Soul artist, Joe Buck. It is pressed on white vinyl (so the A-Side looks like a flower, and B-Side looks like the Obama campaign logo) and has individual gold stamp numbering up to 500. This is a promo only release, which will be distributed to family, friends, and industry associates.

Although it will be very hard for Damu's fans to get hold of a copy of this record, due to the lack of commercial availability, the audio will be made available for free download in December 2010. There will also be a limited number of copies made available for promotional giveaways through the ReDef (www.wonkabeats.com), and Slice-of-Spice (www.slice-of-spice.com) websites, so keep an eye out for details.

An update on this will be provided shortly...
