We welcome Lack of Afro as he talks about his latest and possibly final album, ‘Love Dealer’. Marking a bold new chapter in his sound, the record sees him swapping his trademark funk and soul grooves for a shimmering, disco-infused direction. He’ll share stories behind the music, the inspiration for the change in style, and what Love Dealer means to him.
A 30-minute “Lack of Afro Trunk of Funk” follows, featuring classic tracks from across his career, with a deep dive into the beats, brass, and basslines that defined his journey before stepping onto the disco floor.
