Planet Rump DJs

Planet Rump is keeping things funky-fresh by focusing on writing and recording their next album and taking a break from performing live. But worry not! DJ Tantric and Miss Strawberry are continuing to rock the party via frequent DJ sets, and Nasty Ness is keepin it extra funky in the Caribbean! Get ready for the re-emergence of Planet Rump's live set this spring with brand new songs and super-charged live performance energy!

Until then, don't stop dancing! Check out the video clip of Planet Rump's DJ set at Glasslands and some photos from other recent get-downs, and definitely come let loose at the Golden Arrows album party on Thursday March 3 at Canal Room!

Funky in the Street x Atomic Dog: Nite Club vs The Little Star Dweller Edit




Check out this dope remix/mashup of Funky in the Street by Nite Club! Just like our new music video, this is a tribute to George Clinton: land the mothership in Brooklyn and let's funktify the universe!

The track samples "Atomic Dog" by George Clinton, off his 1982 album Computer Games. Awesome video!! >>>
