The Funktion is a 25 year old Drum and Bass producer hailing from Oxfordshire, England. With his debut release on Kasra's acclaimed label Critical, as well as a heap of tunes on Bristol based
labels RUN DNB and Traffic, he has shared 12's with the likes of DJ Fresh, Break and Audio. The Funktion is one to look out for in 2012, as his new 12" release Detonate // Natural Selection is out now. The Funktion likes to experiment with the darker side of drum and bass, but still likes to aim his tunes for the dancefloor.

My preference is for dark, rollin', techy d'n'b, but I love all sorts of electronic dance music. Generally, it's got to be fast, up-front, rhythmical, atmospheric, emotive.

BIOGRAPHY:

Hustle Audio began life in February 2009 with James Green (Decade) and Phil Innes (Phil Hustle) teaming up to create an imprint that served as a base for Nottinghamshire and midlands producers and artists.

After gathering rapid pace in the scene, the label quickly spread it's wings worldwide. Many new signings followed resulting in a torrent of fresh beats. 

With numerous article features, great commercial and pirate radio exposure, a dedicated following of fans and producers alike, Hustle Audio has gained deserved respect amongst the highest ranks within Drum &amp; Bass.

We're here to provide what we think is a quality output, nothing else. No "philosophies", no pretentious ideals or stereotypical agendas, just solid music.

Now back in 2018 after a 5 year break, expect more music very soon!
