Mr Doris & D-Funk - 'Perfect Timing' *FREE DOWNLOAD*

Paris.... coming from Montreal. Eclectic citizen of the world.

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.

Dj  Producer

A child of the '90s and club kid of the naughties, Reuben Lowe began his DJ journey in the heart of Edinburgh, Scotland, immersing himself in the city’s vibrant music scene at a young age.

Raised by a single mother who was an artist, Reuben’s early influences were shaped by an eclectic mix of music from the '60s and '70s - from Pink Floyd’s psychedelic rock to the soulful sounds of Paul Simon and Dire Straits. These formative influences led him to the local disco and house music scene, where he regularly soaked up live percussion at iconic venues like The Bongo Club, grounding his sound in rhythm and soulful groove.

In his early years, Reuben made a name for himself by hosting a series of successful club nights and becoming a regular presence behind the decks at prominent Scottish venues and overseas. 
But Reuben’s path to where he stands today has been marked by both triumph and hardship. Losing his mother as a teenager profoundly impacted him, and years of pouring his heart into DJing eventually led him to step away from the scene.

During this period of introspection, he explored music production as a path of self-discovery, channelling his experiences into a more profound creative process. Meditation and a new outlook on life shaped his sound, and Reuben now returns with a style that reflects a deeper, more immersive listening experience.

Reuben Lowe’s music embodies an energetic blend of progressive, melodic, and deep house, weaving together multicultural influences with emotive storytelling. His soundscapes are crafted to move dance floors and leave audiences feeling both deeply connected and uplifted. His productions draw on global influences and celebrate organic sounds, creating a unique sonic journey that touches both heart and soul.
