They’ve been chillin’ in the background, grinding out hits for Wondaland’s queen, Janelle Monae (who also executive produced this project). “Punk prophets” Nate Wonder and Chuck Lightning combined their powers to birth Deep Cotton, a funky duo set on reprogramming your ideas of radio and good music. Dubbing their sound “haunted funk n’ roll,” Deep Cotton’s mixtape fixtape, Runaway Radio, compels its listener to abandon all notions of pinpointing a genre and labeling it along with the bad music one may be used to. Runaway Radio is reminiscent of Prince, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Outkast, Parliament Funkadelic, and The Universe. Seemingly, anything consisting of molecules influences the music. Move the furniture out the way, let your hair flow and funk out! Download the “fixtape” here.
