Funkier Session #012 - Pete Ellison

Two lads from Newcastle, UK. We have spent the last 10 years DJing together under the name RJ, playing regular gigs locally to supporting big acts around Europe. 

Sharing a love of House Music since the turn of 2000, artists such as Copyright, Soulsearcher, Sandy Rivera and Harry Romero, and labels Defected, Sulphuric, Subliminal, Strictly Rhythm were heavily influenced in our sets. Our tastes changed by 2007 where Chicago/Jackin House had become our focus, the adaptability of the music was what captured it for us, being able to use soul, hiphop, Jazz or disco samples in a more upbeat fashion gave us something unique to offer as the genre within the UK was relatively unknown. Fast Forward 10 years and we entered the lower levels of BPM looking at those original Disco and soul records which provided us those sensational funky loops & samples 10 years previously has kept our fascination of re-edits and reworks of originals. 

2018 kicked off our Strut2Disco events, a party designed to offer the coastal area of Newcastle a insight to those artists & influential DJ's providing us with some of the most creative Disco edits and reworks out there, past and present.
