Dam-Funk’s first new tracks leading up to his next album Invite the Light are now released on the 12″ maxi-single “I Don’t Wanna Be A Star”. The record contains two vocals – the title track and the Prince cover “17 Days” – and two instrumentals. Record cover by Freddy Anzures.

A video for the title track “I Don’t Wanna Be A Star” is currently in production with director Eric Coleman – expect a premiere in early September 2012.

Also release today is the Dam Drum: a handheld drum machine and sequencer with four unique sounds selected by Dam-Funk. This is a collaboration with Dam and Bleep Labs, who designed and built the drum in Austin, Texas.
