About Me

TO CONTACT........ [email protected] .......... Lost in space, then crash landing on the Earth (aka Seattle)- the Funkscribe channels his home language through the circuitry of analog synthesizers and funky music. Whether funk, soul, go-go, hiphop or whatever- the music of the Funkscribe must be ultra-stanky and always on the one. The Funkscribe has shared the stage with Dr. Funkenstein George Clinton, and through this interplanetary funksmanship has realized that a higher state of funky mind is a necessity in this crazy world. Check out the songs he recorded with Gary "Starchild" Shider, Michael "Kidd Funkadelic" Hampton, and Lige Curry- all of the P-Funk MOB! the Funkscribe uses an arsenal of analog synthesizers to preach the funk gospel- Some of the synths he uses are the Moog Prodigy, Moog Little Phatty, Arp Pro Soloist, Rhodes, Wurlitzer 200A, Hohner Clavinet D6, Arp Omni String machine, Roland Juno 60, MPC2000XL, and many more. Free your mind and your behind will follow.
