Funk Unit formed in 1997 as a sort of extension of Peter Schall and Andrij Kopytko's improvisation noise band, AHNAXO. With Funk Unit, Peter, Andrij, and third member, Ryan Zeigler, decided to create more cohesive and coherant pieces of music. With AHNAXO, they created automatist collages of sound, but with Funk Unit, the object was to create actual "songs."The band first set out to create an EP of drum'n'bass songs dedicated to the fictional character, Dom Delouise-- the fat little Italian guy in all of us who likes to drive fast cars, eat pork, and make the sweet noises of flatulation. However, the EP became a full-length album ("Hive Mind"), where only a few songs were dedicated to our fine cellulited friend. Funk Unitis currently working on a second LP as well as possible single releases on 2'3 Records, as well as other, beautifully independant electronic music labels.
