Hailing from the UK, Duke Slammer is a producer who values the art of “the funk” more than most. “Flatland,” a one-off freebie from the active artist, is a fine example of the brand of synth-soaked, funk-laced boogie and house he is keen to craft. Built around a thick, squelching bassline, “Flatland” is light-hearted but by no means simple, as the tune restlessly shifts through a handful of melodic ideas and percussion patterns, keeping things lively across its entire run. In addition to sending along his new track, Duke Slammer has also shared a cheeky animated video for “Acid Duke” (lifted from an upcoming 7″ release for the Karl Marx Land label), which can be watched after the jump.
