Whenever someone who was named in Daft Punk’s “Teachers” roll call plays – you should automatically attend. Well, this is one of those dudes. The king of booty house and the don of ghetto tech… DJ FUNK. If you are in the bay, you should be marking your calendar for May 22nd (next week) at Lights Down Low. Peep the Facebook page.
The first time I heard DJ Funk play was in the late 90s at a massive rave I was also playing at. These were pre-internet times when the only way to know what a DJ was about was through mixtapes or live sets. I had heard tales but didn’t really know what to expect. He came up to the turntables with nothing but an old suitcase and slapped it down on the table behind the decks. When he opened it, all that was in it was 100+ records, none of which were in sleeves. He started just grabbing tunes and launched a full on assault of raunchy booty clap complete with hood-tastic scratches. It was awesome.
