This UV Funk radio show is dedicated to the long forgotten but recently rediscovered sound of the French West Indies that has been written down in Pop history by the name of Zouk. It was artists like the scene’s stars Kassav' and Francky Vincent from Guadeloupe or little known Claude Robap from Martinique that formed a music that is heavily influenced by disco, calypso, funk, latin music, afro or highlife. It’s a super positive music that made public and party life better not only on the islands but also via immigrants in France. Thanks to the Parisian label Heavenly Sweetness with their “Digital Zandoli”-compilations and some fresh reissues chances are high that you can listen to Zouk-tracks on open minded dancefloors today.

Here’s UV Funk host @philipp-demankowski delivering a mix with his favorite Zouk tunes. Enjoy!

Starting as a label that served basically as a platform for their friends’ music in 2010, Uncanny Valley evolved into a record label that assembles acclaimed artists from the electronic music scene not only from the label’s base in Dresden but also from Germany and beyond. With a strong emphasis on the records’ artwork the label heads Philipp Demankowski, Conrad Kaden and Carl-Johannes Schulze are constantly on a mission to establish and refine the artists from the roster as well as to search for new talents. Artists as Jacob Korn, Cuthead, Credit 00, Massimiliano Pagliara, CVBox or Panthera Krause all feel at home on the label, giving them the chance to develop projects that are not only music related but can also integrate different art forms. With the two offshoots Rat Life and shtum under its belt, Uncanny Valley does not stand still to explore the full spectrum of electronic and not so electronic music from House via Disco, Hip-Hop or Ambient through to Techno. A range that can also be depicted when the three label heads come together for a DJ set as Uncanny Valley DJs.
