A devoted music lover from Jerusalem and his radiant collection of signals of well-being and joy - binaural fusion acoustics, evaporating jazz hypnagogia and the waltzing flight of the spirit of life over the valley of death.

Recorded specially for Grains of Peace - recreational zone and charity marathon for Ukraine on 20ft Radio, Kyiv.

Grains of Peace w/ Markey Funk @ 20ft Radio - 28/03/2022

“Journey To The Centre Of The Eye” is an hour long mix I did with JJ Whitefield in anticipation of his upcoming “Ethio Meditations” Remixes project I’m very happy to be a part of!
The title and cover design are heavily inspired by two of my favorite psychedelic albums:
Nektars debut album of the same name and “Psychedelic Psoul” by The Freak Scene! The mix features a vast variety of psychedelic grooves and styles from around the world! Dig!

JJ Whitefield & Thur Deephrey - Journey To The Centre Of The Eye

Dj Fontana x Markey Funk 25.8.25

Spectrum Road (26/09/2024)

The story of "Inner | Outer" begins in 2015, when two members of Berlin bass combo X.A.Cute and Jerusalem's psych grooves expert, Markey Funk, set up a spontaneous jam session in the basement of an ex-spring factory building.
The outcome of that meeting - now known as "Aquasonic Research Society" (Som Recordings, 2020) - was so inspiring for the three that they determined to record again the next time Markey is in Berlin. Eventually, two more sessions took place in consecutive years at Oberbaumstübchen, overlooking river Spree, U-Bahn tracks and Universal Music headquarters. The change of location also led them to depart from the bubbling aquatic motives towards darker mesmerizing soundscapes that explore themes and mysteries of deep outer space and the human body (sometimes described as "inner space").

Recommended to be played in the dark

1) Tell us a bit about yourself and your record collection.

I’m Simon Hill part of the psychedelic soul band MNP. Also playing bass in The Palms and a bit of everything in Beta Hector. I also make animation by the name of Manalishi. Life ain’t too shabby. I’ve been collecting vinyl for 25 years. Help!

2) 45/7 is all about celebrating the 7". Can you tell us a bit about what you love about the format.

A 45 is condensed goodness and love.

3) One hour of vinyl goodness... can you talk us through your selection for your 45/7 mix?

The mix is half stuff I’ve bought during fun times in lockdown. I just grabbed a shoebox and pulled out the rest of my babies. Some of them are filthy rotten and some are just pure beauty.

4) Where can people catch you / listen to your music? 

The Palms rehearse in a park somewhere in Hove every other Friday night.
Myself and Toby from Mnp deejay monthly in The Jolly Brewer in Brighton but we’re waiting for them to open!

Izabo - Summer Shade (Vanguard Remix By Markey Funk)

Jerusalem-based musician/producer/DJ/turntablist/crate-digger and music archivist, Markey Funk is a staple of the Israeli groove scene. Starting off as a Hip-Hop and Funk DJ, Markey's musical palette has grown constantly wider and deeper throughout the years, embracing everything between Folk, Psychedelia, Early Electronic and Library music from around the world. While being famous for his explosive Soul-Funk-Psych-Groove DJ-sets, he’s also known as a freak of the 1960′s style, cinema and counter-culture. Besides collecting records and playing them for happy audiences, Markey has been writing and producing his own music for more than a decade: from hip hop beats, through fully sample-based debut album, to remixes for a wide variety of local artists. Recent years also saw his first globally distributed releases on vinyl: sitar-beat 7inch single under the moniker Les Hippies and the concept space-age groove full-length album "The Mystery of Mordy Laye", based on unfinished recordings by an anonymous local band from the late 1970's.
