10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
"Black Swan Lane" is a project founded by Jack Sobel of "The Messengers" who had the incredible pleasure of playing with Mark Burgess of "The Chameleons" on some live shows in the Southeastern part of the US. The project is formed with multiple band members including Mark Burgess, Yves Altana, Achim Färber, Jack Sobel & John Kolbeck of "The Messengers", Kwasi Asante who played on the last big Chameleons tour and album and a few other folks who provided some backup sounds. After the live shows, the 'experiments' that were taped in the studio started to sound like something that should be not only recorded but also heard and appreciated. There is no real theme that needed to be followed during recordings, but instead, a true evolution of sounds and appreciation for all types of music. Songs recorded were meant not to grow old and stale but to give an impression of true feeling and spirit. Memories of sitting around with friends in awe at the sound of "The Chameleons" and "The Sun & The Moon" was a true inspiration of getting this unique sound back out there. "A Long Way From Home" was worked on between concerts in 2006 and on into 2007. The project is both original and diverse, bringing many cultures and influences together as one.
