Snap of the day: Woolfy

Woolfy, the project of Ben Cook of Rong Music, makes disco and funk records with a consistent quality, with a link to his music provided.

If you like your disco then you can never go far wrong with DFA-affiliated label Rong Music, run by a New York by San Francisco team of two DJs, Ben Cook and DJ Spun, who have an unnerving knack of releasing (fairly) consistently great records. Today's SNAP, Woolfy, makes up a few of these on Rong, including the punk-funk-disco number 'Odyssey', which features a true 70's disco bassline, straight-up Prince-esque funk guitar and some fantastic breathy mid-tempo vocals. New single 'The Return Of Starlight' isn't bad, either, bringing in elements of cosmic house to create a trippy, yet still funky, number. There's plenty more of his work out there, too, including an LP with Dan Hastie under another moniker, Projections, and releases with experimental Hip-Hop crews Pharcyde and Plant Life (who can count both The Neptunes and Pharcyde as fans). The link below should serve your initial investigations well.
