Brand Spankin' New [Explicit Lyrics]

Editorial Reviews
Album Description
SPANK is J.D. Porro and Daryl Lowry. Their debut CD "BRAND SPANKIN' NEW" is a result of a shared vision and musical talent. This CD was produced in J.D.'s living quarters on a military base in Okinawa, Japan using computer music software. Don't be misled, the music on this CD was recorded using real musical instruments, with the exception of drum programming. A lot of sacrifice and dedication has produced an effort that will hopefully lead to productions on a much larger scale. These guys have a dream and will settle for nothing less than to someday......SPANK THE WORLD!

While it's always been difficult to attach Wayne Horvitz to one particular style, this much can be said about Zony Mash, the keyboardist's quartet: They rock. They also swing and dispense a plentiful allowance of funk and soul while spicing the mixture with just enough of the Downtown blare and confusion that Horvitz built his reputation upon. As a band, Zony Mash can hold its own. Andy Roth provides a stable drum foundation for bassist Fred Chalenor, who continues to push his instrument up and over in small, interesting ways. Guitarist Timothy Young provides an effective (but certainly not a scene-stealing) foil for Horvitz. But make no mistake: This LP belongs to the keyboardist. Here, Horvitz leadfoots everything from a Hammond B3 to a Moog synthesizer, providing a wild, unpredictable ride. Buckle up--Mr. H. can drive like a banshee! --S. Duda

The Best.......2003-03-14

How do you know when you *really* like an album? After you hear it over and over, you start buying other CDs by the same artist. But THEN, you notice that the other CDs are not as good as the first. BUT you loved that first one so much, you just keep buying and buying the artist's work, hoping you'll eventually find another one as good as the first.

After BRAND SPANKIN' NEW, I bought all of the other Zony Mash albums, Wayne Horvitz's solo stuff, and albums by his other bands, The President and Pig Pen. None of them are quite as good as this, but most of them get very close.

Zony Mash successfully walks the line between serious, avant-tinged jazz and MMW style jam music. Honestly, I don't get into the latter, but I really love this album.

These guys kick A$$........1999-04-20

Zony Mash is a mix between Medeski, Martin, Wood, and John Zorn's "Naked City" style, not surprising being that frontman Wayne Horvitz was in "Naked City". Their style is rocking-funk/smooth grooves and great composition. This is not your typical 4 man band that plays standard funk, this is a bit on the edge of avant-garde, but not quite reaching that realm. If you haven't heard them, you need to, NOW. IMO, they take a backseat to nobody. Both the newest album and the first album are equal in quality, and I say don't hold back, buy both.
