Description
THE FLOOZIES-funk/hip hop/down-tempo-live looping duo
Show Date: 2009-11-21
The Floozies are a live looping duo made up of brothers Matt and Mark Hill. After forming in January 2008 in Lawrence, KS, they’ve gone from rocking house parties in their hometown to sharing the stage and collaborating with the likes of Galactic, Lotus, Perpetual Groove, Particle, edIT (Glitch Mob), Vibesquad, EOTO, Euforquestra, and many others in countless venues all over the Midwest. Their shows are an exercise in groove exploration, as they improvise their way through funk, hip-hop, and electronic music, bending and molding beats in new ways every night. Nothing is pre-recorded, nothing is planned, and no one performance is ever the same as another. Their new album, “Lunar Real Estate,” shows that they are skilled instrumentalists that know how to produce a fresh, slamming, electronic beat symphony that is simultaneously primal and compelling. It features 13 studio-produced tracks, some produced solo by Matt, some collaboratively, and some, for the first time, solo by Mark. It also features cover art designed by rising graphic design star David Bywater (byh2ographics.com). Does it sound like their live show? Nope. Their live show experience is nothing like a studio album, and that’s the way it’s supposed to be.
Matt Hill – Guitar, Keyboards, Bass, Live Looping, Production
• Major influences: Robert Glasper, Lettuce, Amon Tobin, John Scofield, Timbaland
Mark Hill – Drums, Production
• Major influences: SCI, Galactic, Welder, P-Funk, Vibesquad, Martin Sexton, the Grateful Dead
