Gilbert Le Funk __ Sunday Funkday : Tape #0

Not a DJ :-) 

I find joy in collecting what I call true gems of music, I'm a music enthusiast who seeks to share tunes and rhythms that are not easy to find... I like pretty much all kinds of genres as long as there was creativity and boldness in the sounds created. 

I could not consider myself a DJ, as I cannot do any tricks and I can barely match BPM :-) however I really like putting sets together depending on my mood and I never plan the song I will play, I like to enjoy the journey of blending songs together, if I like the final result then I share 

This is all about the music, I've been listening to music since I was born and I will continue to do so till my last step.

I will always be appreciative of all the DJs and Producers that inspire me.

music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything .💯🎶💃💥🚀🙏🙌👍

"How happy is the blameless vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each prayer accepted, and each wish resigned."

Gilbert Le Funk is a DJ, musician and record producer.
 
Starting to compose at the age of 11, he got into music production in the late 90s, greatly influenced by the eurodance and house music of Paul Van Dyk, Bob Sinclar, Armand Van Helden, or ATB. Though later he would spend the day listening to more diverse music, from Stravinsky to Casiopea, Incognito or Frank Zappa, which lead him to learn to play electric bass and trumpet as well as setting up is own studio, where he would first work as a musical arranger for other artists.

In 2005 he was moving away from acid jazz and his label La Musique Fantastique was born, starting his Gilbert Le Funk project by making remixes for labels Delecto (CAN), Catch 22 (NYC) or Transport (SF) as well as playing some of the biggest soulful house music acts all over Spain. In 2006 he produced “Work It Out” for DJ Disciple, a track that would mark a before and after in his career, making him responsible for one of the underground hymns during that year. Later, his remix of "L.A. Girls" was premiered by Dimitri From Paris and used on the MTV series "The Hills". In 2008, "Afrikantastique" got licensed by Defected and Subliminal and it wasn't long until he became a major player in the house scene. 

A solid string of releases have followed since then, topping the charts "All About the 90s", "Something", "New Dawn" or the more recent "Wanna Be Free", taking him to tour the world as a DJ, playing venues from the US to Costa Rica, Russia or UAE.
