D-Funk > 'The Boss' [Grits N Gravy]

I am a dude of science and have always been fascinated by phyzix & the natural order of stuff. From the really really big intergalactic planetary expanses of them cozmos and gettin down to the subatomic bits & quannum mekanix. The whole spectrum. Galaxies, moons, booty's, mollycools, atoms, Adam's, electros, newtrons, brotons, gravitrons, energy(light & dark meat), rays, waves, lazers, beams, blood, sugar, sex, magic.... all that junk. Everything. In my travels thru space & time I've spent my life trying to figure out what is what and what isn't. Since I'm literally talking about Rocket Science I fine tuned my enormous brain(like super huge it's insane) with a precise mix of PED's in heavy quantities. I'm a professional so I use what the pros use. I discovered that everything is vibrating at varying rhythms & intensities and it don't stop. Among the vibrations exists a fundamental freakuency that has existed since the beginning of time yet seems to be from the future. It is the source of all creation, the best parties, coolest & pimpinest people and is so good the word bad has the same meaning as the word good. I'm not a scientist. I am Rocket Science ya heard. And the totally awesome vibration I'm talking about is THE FUNK. It was cool back in the old school and it's the coolest today and the prophecy says the funk is what's up in the future. Same as it ever was. So my life is bout it bout it for the funk. Nothing but the funk. 

Oh yeah my point is that on the subject of music, I like funk. All kinds of different ways, if there's some funk flavor on it I probably dig it. I have probably the best taste in music of anyone I know. I have spent my life listening to the best stuff. And until recently was strictly on the listening side of things.....

That is until October 19th. On that date I operated a DJ controller by myself for 5+ hours. If you read all this yeah I'm gonna give DJing a try. If I create half as good as I consume I'll be funking you and all your friends in the near future. Can you feel that? Hey sup? You been warned. Stay tuned🚀💯🚀

Sydney-based, British born DJ, D-Funk has amassed a fair few achievements in his 25-years on the decks. Making his club debut at The Depot in Bristol in 1995, he’s gone on to DJ all over the world, playing notable sets at Space Ibiza and Ministry Of Sound and released on labels including Sunday Best and Bombstrikes. 

Getting his first set of decks at 14, Doug initially fell for the sounds of jungle and techno before a night dancing to house icon Tony De Vit in 1997 turned him towards the slinkier sounds of house music. 

His DJ career began to take off during his time at university in Wolverhampton where he started to pick up gigs at the Canal Club and Mezzanine, playing alongside DJs including Joey Negro, Mr Fingers, Scott Bond and Lisa Lashes, before a move to the South-Coast town of Bournemouth led him to eventually start his own night ‘Break Da House’ in 2004. 

The night took off, attracting big names including The Stanton Warriors and Plump DJs and eventually led to D-Funk’s first release, the ‘Electrotek’ EP after Dub Pistols headlined one night and Barry Ashworth from the band decided to release Doug’s music on his Westway label. The track found its way onto a TV ad in Portugal, as well as becoming a mainstay on Kiss FM’s breakbeat chart and gave Doug the confidence to pursue a career as a producer as well as a DJ, eventually leading to releases on Adapted Records and Ghetto Funk among countless other labels over the next 15 years. 

Moving to Sydney Australia in 2009, Doug started his label Upstart Music, releasing his own productions alongside tracks from the likes of Crackerz & Jam, Niko & Lyall and Rogue Robot and later started the funk label Grits N Gravy alongside friend and funk producer Philly Blunt, with the label winning the ‘Best Label’ award at Perth Dance Music Awards in 2010. 

Since living in Sydney, Doug has held down residencies at The World Bar and The Standard/Middlebar for the best part of a decade, as well as regular slots at Sash, Ivy, Goros, Hugos and many others. He’s played events for high profile companies such as Blackberry, Telstra, Jagermeister,  Sydney Cricket Ground & Saatchi & Saatchi. But there was still demand for him back on the side of the world and he regularly returned to Europe to play at Space Ibiza (including a set at the penultimate night of Carl Cox’s Revolution party) as well as touring in the UK, Europe, Asia and Canada. 

Now 25 years into his career, Doug is about to mark the 10th anniversary of his label Grits ‘N’ Gravy, with a compilation due this year mixed by himself and Philly Blunt, and has been busy producing house, hip hop and nu-disco with his current production partner Mr Doris.
