In this ultra-smooth episode of Dem Vinyl Boyz, we pour ourselves a drink, dim the lights, and spin An Evening with Silk Sonic—the Grammy-winning 2021 debut from Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak’s funk-soul superduo. With velvet vocals, vintage vibes, and razor-sharp production, this album pays tribute to 70s R&B and soul while keeping things playful, fresh, and irresistibly cool.

Featuring silky tracks like "Leave the Door Open," "Smokin Out the Window," "Fly as Me," and "After Last Night," the album glides through themes of heartbreak, seduction, and suave confidence—all with lush instrumentation and undeniable charisma. Bootsy Collins, the funk legend himself, sets the tone as the host and spiritual glue of the album, giving it that extra flair of authenticity and funk royalty.

In this episode, we break down the magic behind Bruno and Anderson’s chemistry, the retro recording style, and why An Evening with Silk Sonic was more than just a passion project—it was a full-blown revival of a genre. Equal parts homage and innovation, this record brought soul music roaring back into the spotlight with class and swagger.

Join Dem Vinyl Boyz as we groove through An Evening with Silk Sonic, an album that sounds like it was pressed in 1974 but made to shine in the modern era.
