about

Markey Funk's debut solo concept album. Released on Audio Montage Entertainment in 2009.

"(forgot the word)" is an enthralling 12-track journey, weaved with hundreds of samples from across decades, continents and genres of music. Inspired by classic 90's Ninja Tune and Mo'Wax releases, Markey Funk embarked on a mission of creating an album using vinyl as his only source of material - a challenge that took him 5 years of dedicated crate digging to accomplish. By combining hip-hop beats and psychedelia through a colourful cross-cultural tapestry of sounds and occasional spoken word, he tells a personal story of self-exploration and artistic growth.

With all its incidental crackle and pop, this album is an ode to the lost era of casual record digging - when your only source of information was a person by the counter, and "world music" and "bargain" sections could lead to life-changing discoveries.
