Upstart Music, circa 2008. The brain child of then UK based D-Funk. Quickly nominated at the International Break beat awards, Upstart set out it’s stall early; to release quality break beat led music from across the globe. Fast forward to ’14 & Upstart are still going strong all be it based in Sydney, Australia nowadays.

Everyone loves a good bit of nostalgier so after listening back to the tunes we’ve released we decided to update some of our classic tunes & have drafted in an all star line up of both old & new names alike.

Upstart boss D-Funk takes on one of the label best selling tunes in the shape of Rogue Robot’s ‘Off My Face In ‘97’. His updated version flexes old skool 2 step garge vibes, a sound he’s become known for recently. Bubbling basslines & lighters in the air!

Rogue Robots - 'Off My Face In '97' (D-Funk's 2 Steppin In '02 Mix) [Upstart Music]

Doug Masters... Housing Around (Vol 1). 

Here's a little mix that I put together under my very clever alias Doug Masters. Over an hour of quality low slung grooves... 

A few years ago I used to play loads of house but have been focusing on the more funk/breaks stuff recently. As I've got back in the studio & made a house EP, which will be released on Bloxbox Records soon, I thought I'd put together a mix of great tunes on the deeper & more 4/4 side of things. Think deep, space rout disco grooves all the way through to my take on house. Hope ya enjoy...

Smash The Funk

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.
