Taki is DEAD (1976-2005)


Funk musician Taki76 passed away two days ago
in Philadelphia. At first the cause of death was rumored
to be suicide but we now know that Taki76 died of
"boredom" a very serious illness that affects millions of
people worldwide.
A close friend confirmed that Taki was very bored of
the current music being played on the radio and MTV
to the point where all Taki did in his spare time was drink
loads of coffee and produce bizarre spacefunk music while
abusing tons of vintage FUNK stompboxes and synthesizers
just so that the artist could numb his pain.
Taki76 will be buried in his GIBSON guitar case today in his
hometown (Montreal, CANADA) but the artist has no plans to
stop releasing new material (just like 2PAC).
NO, YOU HAVEN'T BEEN PUNK'D...BUT YOU'VE JUST BEEN
FUNK'D!

  • A ONE MAN FUNK MONSTER........OR JUST MISUNDERSTOOD
    author: LEONARDO TIMPANO

    Taki76 is like a mad scientist working in the basement of his Philly Lab manipulating & creating his very own purple-funk-enstein. Put 2getha using parts handed down by the funk Gods, this one man band has created a unique sound that P-Funk,Bootsy & Prince fans will enjoy on this instrumental funk monster. Also check out his other creation....the Ninja project! Peace & love from the Flava In Ya Ear crew, Sydney AUSTRALIA

  • Good ole brotherly-lovin'-bred funk...
    author: Sy Smith

    Mellow grooves, tight improvisation and melodies made from molasses... This is a different kind of Philly funk... the kind of funk that transcends trends, the kind that lasts much longer than heartburn from a cheesesteak! D-LI-SHUS!

    There aren't any vocals on this album but it has that old school funk vibe with retro funky sounds.I like it a lot.It's too bad he's not signed to a major label

  • Awesome
    author: Bethany

    Really great songs, funky with style and basically the best new funk music I have heard George Clinton would definitely say "funkadelic baby."

  • My whole skate class moved and grooved to the funky music.
    author: Jen of Drive Sports Skate School, Philadelphia, PA

    I'm always looking for new music to play in my skate classes that will appeal to a wide range of people with a funky beat. So, after I read the description, I thought I'd give it a try. All my students loved it and I haven't gotten tired of it yet. That means alot!
