New DMF Release Alert 🦾🚨

Head Front Panel - Tactile (DMF005)

Release date : 01 March 2024

So excited to welcome the first guest producer into the DMF fold : Head Front Panel. A huge source of inspiration to myself / DMF since those highly sought after HFP 12”s hit the record store racks in 2014. HFP delivers a superb well rounded 4 track EP titled ‘Tactile’ for DMF’s 5th release.

Music for Kerrie's DMF en route !

Test Pressings approved! DMF005 incoming, expected release date : early Feb 2024!

brand new territory for my label Dark Machine Funk as I invite my first guest into the fold, and I’m so happy to share its Head Front Panel!!

HFP has been a big inspiration for me since those sought after HFP 12’s hit the racks in Eastern Bloc in 2014 and I’ve long since admired all the subsequent releases and live sets that John has put out under the moniker. It’s a real honour and privilege to release John’s music on DMF, not only is he a seriously talented and accomplished producer, live act and Dj he’s also a super sound human, an important factor to me!

Very grateful to be able to make this happen and I hope you love the tracks as much as I do!

Will share pre order info after Christmas
