Made of Wood is the instrumental chillfunk project of producer and multi-instrumentalist Dan Waldman. The music blends elements of funk, trip-hop, lounge, electronica and jazz. The Chill/Funk Trip is Made of Wood's new album...

It will probably come as no surprise to learn that The Chill/Funk Trip album does exactly what it say on the tin. It offers the listener a unique chilled out, funky trip into the musical world of Made of Wood (aka Dan Waldman).

This is packed full of atmospheric, chilled-out vibes that will send you on a journey of discovery like no other. Part lounge music, part jazz this also takes beats from mild trance and trip-hop.

My personal favourite track was 'Simmer' which does just that for 4 min, 25 sec. But I have to be honest, there wasn't a single track I didn't instantly warm to. This is an album you'll get a lot of mileage out of. This is well worth investing your time and money in.
