What the fux is Nuevo Groove?!? I have no gotdamn idea, but I am sure some asshat sitting in a record company office will love the name. Plus Future Funk was already used for some shit. My folks over at OKayPlayer just turned me on to a band called Gordon Voidwell and they are the leading Nuevo Groove band in America.
The mistake I am making from the outset is trying to describe Gordon Voidwell because all the reference points would be for shit I have heard previously. Shit like Funkadelic, Afrika Bambaata, Prince, Shalamar, Devo all have their own unique sounds and so does Gordon Voidwell. I’m in a place where I can fux with this band right now.
I was feeling that Shafiq/Plug Research mixtape something serious and that joint was all over the place. The Gordon Voidwell ‘Voided Checks’ mixtape stays right in the pocket. That funky pocket, where I keep the “loud pack”, if you can dig where I am coming from. Take a listen to some of these tracks and tell me what you think.
‘Ivy League Circus’
‘Planet Love’ *this mah jammmmm!
‘White Friends’
Das Racist – ‘Shorty Said’ (GV Remix)
Gordon Voidwell fux with Das Racist hardbody. This is why the world is so damn church. The world is a big place, but the folks that operate under the same cosmic sine/cosine frequency is the small subset. We usually find each other one way or another. Now that I’ve found Gordon Voidwell I’m gonna go along for the trip. Are you coming too? [ll]

Voided Checks Mixtape – FREEEEEE Download
dudes lyrics got a prince and van hunt feel. his music is like a future prince on the love-funk tip. this dude, keri hilson, j*davey, the-dream and dam-funk are the fututre of soul, funk, rnb or whatever people call it. Even more important tho- lets all get together and hope for a KNICKS WIN
Good looking on the drop, I’m downloading this right now. How did the SFU go on saturday?
Gordon Voidwell’s mixtape is fire — but you ain’t seen nothing if you haven’t seen dude live.
I dug what I heard on here so I DL’ed the mixtape. Nuevo whateveryoucallit sounds a lot like J*Davey’s style. Whenever trying to explain their sound to writers, I always called it “electro-sex.” LOL!
