house + funky stuff i know nothing....and want some... bellini markamus? any suggestions? any 1 else? andy perhaps? ta... just some lables/producers....whatever... i prefer stuff like spooky - belong (not THAT housey) if ya get me...
Darren Emerson is down with some funky stuff........ Anything on subliminal tends to be good as well.
well, where the fuck do you want me to start Any idea what kind of House you're looking for as there are so many extreme variations? I'll do a very wide and broad sweep through DJ's, Artists and Labels For the bigger, US vocal stuff opt for Masters At Work (MAW Records) stuff on Yellorange, Ibadan and maybe even Subliminal though I don't feel they're as hot as they once were. Old School US; Todd Terry, DJ Pierre, David Morales, Robert Owens - though he's back on the up again! For deeper stuff Charles Webster/Presence is a total master as is Rob Mello, Tiefschwarz, Nick Holder & Ian Pooley. Plus stuff on NRK is always good to look out for, Pagan records, Toko and Glasgow Underground. For real floor shaking, jackin stuff opt every time for Derrick Carter and virtually anything on Classic records, Basement Jaxx and stuff on Atlantic Jaxx, Cassius (though there new album isn't that hot), Daft Punk and, DJ Sneak, Yousef French/ funky/ disco crossover?!? - Dimitri From Paris (total master!) or Bob Sinclar Latin/ New Italo House; Claudio Coccoluto, Cosmo, DJ Pippi Dubby; Groove Armada Dark or Tribal; Danny Tenaglia (and Twisted records), Steve Lawler, Lexicon Avenue (and anything else on Forensic records) God, I'm barely scratching the surface here! Tell you what, I'll pass on my new mix. Always pretty varied, bound to be something on there you like.
Quality underground house on labels like Classic, Seasons, Music For Freaks, Hi-Phen Music Delivery, Tak, Brique Rouge, Lowdown, Shaboom, Tronicsole, Paper, Riviera, Wally's Groove World, Silver Network, Bumpin City, Courtsquare, Camoflage, Nordic Trax, 20:20 vision, Dufflebag, Panhandle, Aroma, Igloo
fuck yes Paperecordings! Igloo! 20:20 Vision, for shame for shame! Joe, I'll take a stack to Promise a week on Friday when we do the next People Get Real. Failing that if anyone misses one, I'll see Rob about maybe getting it up online, it's a fuckin corker
Since this is the only thread I know anything about. My fave producers at the moment are Brett Johnson, Tony Senghore, Freaks, Derrick Carter (for all his rubs and dubs as well as his own stuff) Rob Mello, Joshua, East Coast Boogiemen, Mark Farina, Stacey Kidd, Swirl People and JT Donaldson.
Joshua is sweet!! have ya heard his new one!! was listening to it on Plastic fantastic today!! is totaly sweet like!!!! nd The Derrick Carter tune on the new mixmag cd is lush!
Exactly what Simon says! There are so many different sub-genres within "house and funky stuff". Dependent upon what kinda stuff you like. For your general funky as hell stuff though, try labels like Defected, Subliminal, Sondos and Fluential. A lot of it's by ear anyway. There are so many independent artists and labels doing some real good stuff atm, you jus gotta look for it.
not to sure of the nam i fink it was nu cycles or sumfink!! id never heard of the bloke till today!! totaly sweet though!! heard the van helden remix of modjo (on fire) ?
Subliminal, Defected and the like are a mostly a bit too straight-up, boring, funky house. Delve deeper
aye but for the most part it sounds like they're treading water a bit. 1999 was a really important album for me, it was always gonna be hard for them to follow it up. They still kick ass live though
