This monster Underground Disco classic was produced by the legendary Patrick Adams and it’s considered to be one of his best and rarest pressings. Released in 1977 on P&P Records, “Dance Dance Dance” was ahead of its time laying ground for the signature sound he’d soon to be known for on productions for the likes of Inner Life, Loleatta Holloway, Bumblebee Unlimited, and Musique. This Classic release combines a smooth blend of Latin rhythms, an infectious bass line and Arp keyboards that create a dubbed out cosmic vibe, while Marta Acuna’s dreamy vocals glide in and out. This is the perfect tune to close out an evening of hot summer dancing, a NYC Disco Classic. This Highly sought after and extremely rare 12” has seen other lives as well, heavily sampled in Underground House tracks like Alex Neri’s “Planet Funk” and covered by Joey Negro and his Sunburst Band.“Absolute disco classic right here… out on P&P back in 1977. One of our favorites…a record everyone needs to hear.” - Bicep

Inside of the bay area’s sweater funk crew is k-maxx, one of modern funk’s most prolific voices and producers to emerge over the last half dozen years. K-maxx lets it be known on ‘For The Record’ that he is in a lane of his own. As soon as you hear the game within the sexy dialog and his infectious voice that hypnotizes you over his masterful arrangements, there is no doubt he’ll have you coming back for more. Only someone who baptizes his whole city every week with the gospel of the funk can write like he does, let alone transcend the vibe of every dude in the city moving through ladies they can’t let go. That’s real life transcended on ‘For The Record’, K-Maxx has walked through the darkness with the torch of his music, lifting the experience of his record to a plateau where we doubt he’ll be a underground secret for much longer. K-Maxx’s production wizardry is just as masterful as the wind through the pipes, as he clowns the lyrical boundaries of love songs with stuffin for your muffin, then lights it up on the one with masterful 808 breakdowns just for fun, forever cementing his place in modern funk for the record.
