Post-disco R&B and the early house music it birthed, along with the progressive funk of <a href="spotify:artist:1AEcpjnSCmm53IBZQo3g9z">Dâm-Funk</a>, are among the influences absorbed by Nicky Benedek. The Los Angeles native made his debut after he sought out <a href="spotify:artist:1AEcpjnSCmm53IBZQo3g9z">Dâm-Funk</a> at a Funkmosphere night in nearby Culver City. <a href="spotify:artist:1AEcpjnSCmm53IBZQo3g9z">Dâm</a> obliged by composing the lyrics for "That's My Jam!" and also fronting the track, released as the A-side to Benedek's 7" 2011 debut for the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Proximal%22">Proximal</a> label. An untitled full-length for <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Peoples+Potential+Unlimited%22">Peoples Potential Unlimited</a> followed two years later. After a handful of 12" releases, including a collaboration with Martine Syms, were released during 2015 and 2016, Benedek completed the Bene's World LP, which <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Leaving%22">Leaving</a> issued in 2017. Additional Benedek output has been credited to C.O.O.L. Band and Manzanem, and he has recorded as Rx with <a href="spotify:artist:683gIqfxdjjg2sowYxBHIQ">Delroy Edwards</a>. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi
