What is it in music we like? Is it rhythm? Melodies? The groove, or that part where you just can't stop dancing to it? Or is it the feeling that you are totally in touch with the song; or that subtle unexpected surprise when the beat finally drops? For Jaksa Pavicevic, it's all of that... and more! What makes a song really stand out to him is emotion. With his label he tries to bring us the finest house and techno music- crossing borders, genre-blending.

Born in 2005, 'A Must Have' built itself a nice foundation. 2007 kicked off the first few releases by head honcho Jaksa Pavicevic, Tom D Vox and Sydney Roy, followed by remixes from Gui Sheffer aka Tropical Highlight and Sandji. The label soon drew attention. By summer 2008 the label was brought under Proton Management, kicking off a new era for the label. Soon 'A Must Have' became a firm base for young, upcoming producers like Marsbeing, Bollo and Shane Robinson.

2010 saw the first album released on the label. Soundprank's 'Endgame', a 12 tracker debut album by this talented Canadian, gained wide attention from artists like Chloe Harris, John Digweed, Nick Warren and Taho. By this year, Jaksa's unique eye for talent also brought some interesting artists like Leigh Myles and Ju.N to the label. While their original work may not be what one might expect from a dance label, a great team of remixers like Pacco & Rudy B, Qbical, Stefan Vincent, Royal Sapien and Sandji will indulge us with some rather tasty releases.

'A Must Have'; a rather bold name for a label, stands for Jaksa's personal experience when listening to new unsigned music. When it's good music, he simply must release it... And it's exactly this attitude that makes his label's releases truly A Must Have!

This groundbreaking DJ-Live hybrid group act has always been a very forward-looking combination of a live electronic music act alongside a dual-DJ set up between the two performers (dex+f/x). What the duo do is integrate various material, triggered & performed live via outboard equipment including samplers, sequencers, drum machines, outboard effects & keyboards alongside DJ vinyl & CD tracks; incorporating live remixing into the performance. This expandable format has proved very popular & successful and one of Ireland’s first & current only DJ live-hybrid acts.
PHUNK’DUP are now honing new material into a whole new stage performance of original material played live on outboard instruments to a stunning visual effects backdrop.

Very much both visual as well as aural, this multi-DJ live performance is in very high regard.

DJing for almost 20 years in various high-profile venues alongside this on very successful solo careers, Dean & Barry are also founders of Impulsive Music Ireland Ltd, a record company housing over 3 labels, and also VIRTU Recording Studios in Dublin.

They’ve also brought the live act to the Far East, Europe & America on sponsored tours and are devoloping their new live show for the international road presently, to tie in with their concept album release plans.

PHUNK’DUP champion their forward thinking sound week in week out at various club events. Their sound is very funk-driven yet takes in many genres to always ensure dancefloor effectiveness & reaction, dropping many variants during marathon 5-hours but always involving familiar classic loops, samples & tunes along the way… 
They feature regular on radio including national stations (2FM, FM104, Spin FM, etc) & the Internet plus host their own monthly PHUNK'DUP Radio Podcast available for free download via iTunes.
