Gettin' Funky With It!
Dear Friends,
We are thrilled to hear from DJ Matt that young club goers, born well after the heyday of Disco and Funk have "discovered" those driving beats. DJ Team MAM consists of Miguel Campbell and Matt Hughes, two young lads from Leeds who celebrate success on the only one year old Fina Records. Their "Modern Heat" gets them on the dance floor from Coast to Coast.
"It's minimal, it's retro, it's funky, and it's all the rage in every club from L.A. to NYC … and ironically enough, much of it is imported from Europe! A current trend at the moment in many of the world's big cities is a kind of stripped down 80's funk & r&b (think Rick James pairing up with The Whispers for a rock steady beat) made mainly by young people born much much later after it's first time around, and in places like Leeds, Great Britain. Although slightly repetitive, these new 80's funk mixes are great fun and might even get you pop n lockin! "

Wishing you a groovy week!
