Funk by Funk Show (05/02/2024): Rasheed Chappell Interview

This summer I had the awesome opportunity to DJ a 30min funk meets hip hop set at the Fool's Leap stage at Boomtown Fair, an incredible immersive UK festival. It's taken me awhile, but I finally re-recorded the mix, and I'm quite proud of it.

Funk by Funk show (28/10/2024): The Allergies Interview

My Free Downloads Mix. 

Over the years I’ve given away lots & lots of free tune downloads. I think it’s prob about 100 in total! It dawned on me one day that it would be pretty cool to put together a mix featuring a load of my favourites from over the years. From my first ever freebie, the re-edit of The Prodigy ‘Narayan’ from back in 2008 which was a bit of a killer, dance floor filling, secret weapon in the Break da House days. To the latest, a great new version of the iconic Bruce Hornsby tune ‘The Way It Is’ that I used to listen to on cassette over & over again when I was a little kid back in the 80's. There’s a bunch of other great ones that didn’t make the mix like my whole Ghetto Funk EP from 2013, my NWA ‘Straight Outa Compton’ remix that’s one of my most ever played on Soundcloud & loads from the That’s Not An Edit series that I’ve done 13 freebies for now. 

I tried to include the full spectrum of genres I’ve been making over the years. Starting off funky into nu disco. Then from a bit of mid tempo bass into house & breaks. Even finishing off with my only ever go at dubstep or dugstep. 

So without further a do here’s 24 tunes (just) over 90 mins of my best freebies… ENJOY!

Bootlegs & B-Sides 

Bootlegs & B-Sides #27

This is my first Bootlegs & B-Sides of 2025 and it's with a heavy heart that I dedicate it to Andrew Cerutti, who tragically passed away this week.
Andy was my show's biggest Champion. He was also a musical guru and from the outpouring of grief on social media, he was clearly loved and highly respected in the culture.  I used to chat with him weekly and still can't believable that he is gone.
Rest in Peace, Brother and thanks for everything.
