The Purple One has opened the floodgates of funkitude with "FUNKNROLL", a new track from his upcoming solo LP Art Official Age, and from 3rdEyeGirl's debut, Plectrumelectrum.
Laying somewhere between '20s cabaret-jazz, classic Prince, "Auld Lang Syne", Wings, Robyn and late '00s club fodder, it's... it's... hypnotic.
