While I've been working more on a nice and easy hip hop instrumental lately, the "chocopop" showed up while i used my itunes in library in random mode.
Somehow I felt like doing something new and I gave him some new drums, percussions, some instruments and efx.

Hope you dig it.

D-Funk - 'Do It Right'
Grits N Gravy [Night Disco Vol 2 // GNG023]

Over at Grits N Gravy HQ we’ve (still) got the disco bug. In fact we’ve had it for years. Far before any other bugs that took over the world. The disco bug is the one that comes out & shines to the fabulous. It started off in New York then spread all over the world & now from Sydney, Australia the 2nd installment of Night Disco is upon us.

It’s been a little while since we’ve released music on Grits N Gravy. We’ve not been idle, far from it. We’ve been biding our time & waiting. Waiting for the time the discos are open & the people are once again dancing. So with disco dancing in mind Grits N Gravy label co-boss D-Funk bring you 3 upbeat slices of 21st century original disco music.

Night Disco Vol 2 will be released on Grits N Gravy across all sites on the 2nd September ‘22.

It’s our very own funk prospector Pecoe. He was hiding in Frankee’s afro wig. Wonderful to see you, I hope you’re not empty handed? What a wonderful treat! A deliciously crafted edit of the soul queen “Etta James - Fire” It certainly is…I have a sneaky feeling this will be getting a lot of air play over the yule tide season and New year. Blessings brother Pecoe, we’ll see you next year for your second EP.

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.
