What ever happened to Plaza De Funk ?

Italian by birth Plaza De Funk moved to London in 2005 releasing award-winning records and receiving huge support from the likes of Fatboy Slim, Elite Force, Plump DJs, Rico Tubbs & Black Noise. In 2008 he walked away from Breakspoll with the award of Best Breakthrough Producer but where is he now ? His last post on Facebook post was in 2014. 

This DJ mix i downloaded as a promo back in 2007.

Bosketta-Worlds Apart [Available at Bandcamp]

Save those generic pop House mixes for someone else.  We don't do that type of stuff round' ere.  I wish there was some sort of expanation for this.  It's dirty raw and loud.

BARRACUDA / HEART BREAKS / BONESBREAKS

#10 equals another notch in the saga of "Go Bang".  This one is valid of the tenth version, but that being said, I wasn't trying to do anything but pass some time.

I WANNA GO BANG #10

FAT VIBEZ TV#006 - Iva

Starlight Thursdays 127. We have a very special mix for you this week. Our very own Gruv42 put together a mix that a lot of us DJs and Producers dream about. A 100% original mix, meaning she produced all these tracks and mixed them in a DJ set. I personally would consider this a crowing achievement, especially being that the mix Is really good and the individual tracks are amazing as well. 
-BK Love-

I had a goal at the beginning of this summer to create a mix of all original tunes. The summer kind of got away from me, but fortunately, Starlight Reunion gave me a reason to revisit this idea and make it happen (I made it on September 20th, so still technically summer, right?)! This mix of 18 original tunes spans about 70 minutes. It’s a little different mixing my own tunes - I don’t like to mess with them quite as much as I would someone else’s music, I just like them the way I wrote them. Some of these tunes have been released, some are tunes that I’m still tweaking for release and some will probably only ever be played by me (unless you ask me for a copy). Lately, I’ve really enjoyed writing songs that have half time components and some of those really wubby sounds that make bass music so incredible. I’ve been getting better and better at bringing the bass and creating space for all of the elements in each track. These tunes have been written over the course of the past year and together, they represent my journey to relearn production software and updated production techniques after a very long break from making music. For me, progress is the most important part. I am always learning, always getting better. I hope you enjoy these tunes, straight from my heart. This is absolutely me in audio form.

EP 127 - Gruv42 - A Mix of Original Music - Starlight Thursdays Episode 127

LUV U

Both Ellis D & Rennie Pilgrem have been in the EDM scene since the beginning of time (haha) and both were a part of an act called Rhythm Section along with Richie T & Nick Newton. Rhythm Section were an electronic rave act before Ellis D & Rennie Pilgrem moved onto their own careers as an artist. This mix from 2010 was recorded LIVE at Rough Tempo Radio a place at that time that had guest mixes from top breakbeat acts. The mix itself starts out with some old school breaks sounds as Rhythm Section then moves on to individual mixes from Rennie Pilgrem & Ellis D.

Ellis D & Rennie Pilgrem - LIVE @ Rough Tempo Radio June 2010

"Call It Techno" was the blueprint track which was written on June 4, 1989.  It was at the forefront of European Rave Culture and became a well known track in the U.K. & Germany.  The documentary "We Call It Techno" explains it right from the beginning and from that came the second & third Love Parade themes being named "The Future Is Ours" off the XL/Citibeat LP by Musto & Bones.  And "My House Is Your House" from the Break Boys which was Frankie Bones aka on Fourth Floor Records in 1990.

Frankie became the American Pioneer of Rave Culture on both coasts in 1990, playing Techno as a movement.  The Peace, Love, Unity Movement which in 1993 became PLUR after a fight broke out at an event in The Bronx which had Richie Hawtin as it's headliner.

And the rest is history.  If words can paint the picture here, the first 5 Soundcloud links will describe a DJ who has a journey of a lifetime & still is active in 2024.  The music that comes from the heart & soul of the Brooklyn Underground.
