This album is truly an advance back to the original funk with a little future flavor! Eddie "Maggot Brain" Hazel drops with Bootsy on if 6 were 9. This might be my favorite from the funk mob. The whole album has a kind of eerie dark ambient yet Funkadelic diversity. I cant stop listening to it. Fuzzy would have fit nicely on this one, but he did counter with his orignal "P" album, which only had 3 good songs that should have been on the funkcronimcon album, it has the same flavor.

the bomb funk in 3000, this is the album tapofom should have been if you love funk then get this the first cut under the influence has george clinton with herbie hancock, and bootsy collins what a treat a jazzy tune, there is a tame version of cosmic slop and yes gary shider sings on there so funkadelic fans don't worry, if 6 was 9 was calmly remade by bootsy, like i said funk in the year 3000, freaks has george, bootsy, mudbone, gary shider, and bernie worrell, blackbyrd has some solo joints on here as well, tell the world has sly stone, bobby bryd, maceo, bootsy and godmamma man this is so funky, sax machine has bobby brrd, bootsy, and maceo reliving their james brown days, the winners are pray my soul done by eddie hazel you hear this and you will think how far eddie could have gone if he were still here, the next one is orbitron attack which has a long guitar solo by eddie, man edddie in that song proved he is the king of funk, and heavy metal i felt you man they never wanted to hear you. rest in p.

Heavy, choppy beats drive this double-CD of nappy old-school funk married to the smoother Axiom sound. It's a party! Deadly guitars also make this an outstanding dance album - enough to cause roomfuls of people to fall helplessly into butt-shaking line.

Unfunkinbelievable. This hunk o' wax is so DAMN funky, it's got stink lines comin' off it. I don't even have Disc 2, and I can recommend the Funkcronomicon unequivocally. The other reviewers have mentioned the version of "If 6 Was 9" found here, but I gotta say it: Transendfunkindental. When I grow up, I wanna be Bootsy.

Bill Laswell is a genius for putting this project and Praxis with Bootsy together. I've listened to this set more than a dozen times just to hear If 6 were 9 and Cosmic Slop. For many people, this is a great intro to Buckethead.

This is definitely one of the funkiest, mind blowing, entertaining cd's I have ever had to privilege to listen to. From beginning to end, there is rarely a dull or uninteresting moment.

If you dig funk, then this album is a must have because you've never heard funk like this before.

AXIOM FUNK is a great introduction to P-Funk type music for the uninitiated, as well as a demonstration of the contnued vibrancy of the genre for the already converted. Maceo's work on SAX MACHINE (disc 2 song 2) ranks among his best. Additionally, the production values on AXIOM FUNK are spectacular. The sound is crisp and clean. Just hope we see another release from this outstanding project.

This album is a true work of art!It is a double album of uncut P-FUNK at it's best!This album covers almost every genre of FUNK that you can think of and has some of the greatest P-FUNK legends as well other great players.The production from Bill Laswell is first rate and the performances from cats like:GEORGE CLINTON,BOOTSY COLLINS,MACEO PARKER,EDDIE HAZEL, FRED WESLEY,HERBIE HANCOCK and BERNIE WORRELL are STUPENDOUS!This album can hold it's own with almost any classic FUNKADELIC or PARLIAMENT records.What also makes this album very special is that it has EDDIE HAZEL'S final work which turned out to be awesome!My fav songs are:UNDER THE INFLUENCE,ORBITRON ATTACK,SAX MACHINE and TELLING TIME.If you are a true FUNKATEER like myself then you must pick up this joint. Don't FAKE THE FUNK! This album will set you free.
