Funkier Session #029 - Steve Hookway

Different Strokes with Neil Wiliis on Ndcradio.co.uk 070425

My hour started off nice and funky, quickly built up the tempo to cram in a few promos, and ended up with a few dusty disco belters north of 130BPM. Fun times!

I was lucky to snag a very special guest for the second hour. French DJ, singer, composer, multi instrumentalist, producer and audio engineer David Baluteau AKA Joi N’Juno. He’s another one of my favourite producers, specialising in funky, danceable tunes with African influences. His mix is bloody brilliant - lots of tropical sunshine sounds, some solid nu-disco and housed up worldwide oddities, with a few of his own in there, including a bit of unreleased stuff. Loved every minute of this one, and I hope you enjoy it too.

BRIAK MIXTAPE #SPRING25

No guest mix this time, so I kindly stepped in to supply the whole 120 minutes of grooves. We kicked off with some lovely soul a’la Aretha and Marvin, then went into some low tempo boogie, some weirdness, some African vibes, more weirdness, and via a few stop offs along the way we ended up with some beautiful, lesser known disco. I had fun!

Funkier Sounds Episode 158 - 2 hours of Even Funkier

For my next session I bring you an hour of tasty disco house vibes from Dee James. Listen, enjoy, share and follow... https://www.instagram.com/djdeejames/

Funkier Session #031 - Dee James

The latest Funkier Sessionis a good one - a 96 minute beast of a mix from a UK-based DJ and producer called NTRIK. I loooove this mix - there’s loads going on but it flows really well… starting off on a lovely boogie tip but building to something chunkier with original and remixed disco, some house and varied funky vibes. A few classics and some new discoveries in there too. It’s a really nice one, and you’d do well to give it a listen to see what I mean! As always, I'm looking for more mixes, so give me a shout if you wanna get involved - all welcome!

Funkier Session #032 - NTRIK

I started this episode slow and slinky, but switched things up halfway to road test a few promos. Tried to keep it a vaguely summery vibe this time, and covered lots of bases as usual.

This fortnight’s guest mix was from Leon Dahl, who’s an ace producer based in NZ that I’ve appeared alongside on some compilations. It also turns out he’s a wicked DJ, as shown by this mix - an hour and a bit of eclectic but very funky sounds. There’s a lot in here but it flows so nicely - there’s funky stuff, old school stuff, ghetto stuff, banging stuff… all the good stuff! And then a genius slowdown at the end - didn’t see that coming. 

Give Leon some love if you will - https://soundcloud.com/leon_dahl https://www.instagram.com/leondahl_aka_leon_d/
