PETE CANNON & DR SYNTAX (feat. DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN & JEHST): Do What We Wanna Do (2014)

It’s a UK backpack-rap wet-dream as Mancunian knob-twiddler Pete Cannon teams up with Dr Syntax, Jehst and US West Coast Hiero legend Del The Funky Homosapien for ode to libertarianism Do What We Wanna Do. It’s a throwback to that kind of turn-of-the-millenium beat where it was the law that any video had to be a moving hand-held p.o.v. job shot through a fish eye lens with lots of trippy psychedelic filters. In …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DELTRON 3030: Deltron Event II (2012) Album review

Ignore everything I’ve ever said about releases taking a long time to come out. No one has ever taken the piss to this extent before. Mind you everything about Deltron 3030′s Deltron Event 2 screams ‘epic.’ There are the main participants (West Coast underground rap legend Del The Funky Homosapien, production legend Dan The Automator and turntablist legend Kid Koala), the collaborators (a myriad of major artists …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DELTRON 3030: City Rising From The Ashes (2013) Free download single

Holy shitfire! It’s a brand new Deltron 3030 single – City Rising From The Ashes – and for free download no less. As it says on their soundcloud page, ” ‘City Rising from the Ashes’ is the lead single from the forthcoming Deltron 3030 album “Event II” signifying an official album release date is upon us.” About bloody time – production was laughably described as being ‘well under way’ back in 2004. City Rising From The Ashes appears …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DELTRON 3030: Deltron Event II – 2010 release? – Listen to new track
As previously reported on monkeyboxing, the sequel to Del The Funky Homosapien, Dan The Automator and Kid Koala’s massive underground LP, 2000’s Deltron 3030 was (in time-honoured hip-hop fashion), due out some time ago. And there still isn’t a release date. But the monkey tirelessly searches the web so you don’t have to which is why we can reliably inform you that…READ THE REST AT MONKEYBOXING.COM

DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN vs. OSIRIS: Vulc hi-top
Man I used to love hi-tops the first time they were in so you can only imagine how gutted I was when they went out – I figured I’d just lie low until they came back in again. The thing is…READ THE REST AT MONKEYBOXING.COM

DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN & TAME ONE: ‘Flashback’ video + ‘Parallel Uni-Verses’ LP details + tracklist + 'Special' free download
Del returns to form in straight-up banger shocker. You’ll have to excuse the monkey’s lateness in picking up on the Flashback single but I’d virtually given up on Mr Jones because his solo projects haven’t exactly been setting my world on fire in the last half decade and more with those tinny arcade game samples and increasingly esoteric lyrics. But then again he’s not solo here is he? This time it’s former Artifacts rapper Tame One’s turn to reign in the whimsical excesses that Del’s mind haemorrhages when left to its own devices. Flashback recalls nothing so much as the sophisticated bottom-heavy funk-vibe of on-form Hiero while

DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN: Funkman – 2009 – Album review

DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN: Funkman – 2009 – Album review
HIGHLIGHTS: Straight From The Big Bad West Coast – Young Adrenaline
SOUNDBITE: “Hip-hop, an asylum, run by inmates who be wylin’/ So I’m coming with a heavier dose/ This medication, is safe for you slow folks”
RATING: 2/5
On paper this sounded excellent - it was full of western promise. Del, the man with ‘funky’ in his name, the man who dropped Mistadobalina back in the day, the man whose discography includes two of the dopest old school LPs ever under his belt was going to drop an LP called Funkman! News of this was swiftly followed by the ‘stimulus package address’ video shot in grainy black and white with funky president Sir DZL speaking to the hip-hop nation over a Hendrix-style guitar re-working of Hail To The Chief boldly claiming,”…for all of you who have been waiting, listening to hip hop and being so frustrated because of lack of funk - I’m here to bring your funk back to you.”

Ah yes, things were sounding good - and yet, somehow…READ THE REST AT MONKEYBOXING.COM

DEL THE FUNKY HOMOSAPIEN: Get It Right Now – 2009 – Single review/ Free download
RATING: 1/5
Is Del having a laugh? Get It Right Now seems to be based round a sample of a car alarm. Also, like a car alarm, it drowns out the possibility of focusing on any other sound – the rapping for example. Avant-garde or just shit?…DOWNLOAD/ READ THE REST AT MONKEYBOXING.COM
