It's the collaboration that the modern funk world has been waiting for - Blue Blade Piranha is basically a Zackey Force Funk album, produced in it's entirety by XL Middleton. You've already heard the first single 'Jam Likely,' originally released pre-covid, and the subsequent previews 'Commando' & 'Tie Me Up.' Now, get ready for the full-length, which takes the journey from the streets to the stars.

'Glide Through Galaxy' has been remixed in the way it was originally intended to be - a miscommunication led to the track being released on Zackey's '4x4 Scorpion' album before it could be fully fleshed out. It's hitting harder than ever now! ZFF & XL even take their brand of modern funk & blend it with house on 'Rude Sensation.' ZFF's first stepper (read: a more mellow, easy going take on funk) appears in the form of 'Don't Be Late'; we get a vaporwavey, slow motion, thick-as-molasses cruiser on 'Girls And Gangsters,' and the duo even take it to minimal wave territory on 'Cocaine Cream.'

DJ support from:

- J Rocc

- Anthony Valadez & Novena Carmel (KCRW 89.9 FM Los Angeles morning show)

- Walla P (Voyage Funktastique)

- Soul Clap - Funk Freaks

- WeFunk Radio
