One of Funkinova's early recordings which, at the time of being included on the Dance Party Album had already had  over 33,000 plays on Soundcloud. 

This was one of the first Funkinova-produced tracks where he realised that he did not have to re-produce the original sound but could get creative with the instruments and sounds.

The Tramps - Disco Inferno

After 20+ years in the business they produced their best track in 2005!

Depeche Mode - Precious

Hi all, so from 2016 to 2024 I assembled and produced a large collection of covers of many of my favorite tunes as my own hobby (and many during COVID lock-downs!) and I have accumulated over 3,000,000 plays across the world which is awesome!

I am much more of a producer that a musician. These first 8 years of my music was mostly based on midi cover tracks often downloaded from the Internet but heavily reproduced and re-imagined variously on my two Yamaha keyboards (Clavinova and PSR 975), but also using PC midi editing & DAW software.

Towards the end of that period, I added some of my more original electronic music which I produced over the past two decades under the name of Funkleberry in order to consolidate my Soundcloud accounts. 

But in 2024 I got into AI music generation and I am now  a freelance songwriter and AI music producer. It's been a fun journey!
