Funkier Radio

Continuing my self imposed tradition of the boss man taking on every episode ending with a zero, I’m back in the hot seat for episode 40! I set out on a soulful excursion, but things soon ended up getting a bit bumpy. A few curveballs too, was loving some Cooly G towards the end. I’m dead pleased with this one, particularly how I didn’t let my ADHD rule the show and actually let the tracks speak f...

This was definitely a mix of two distinct parts - started with some 80s vibes, flitting rapidly between some well known bits and more obscure stuff, then almost accidentally flipped into cosmic disco mode, mining my small but quite good collection of tracks from a few Nordic producers. Definitely preferred the second half, where I slowed the mixing down and let the tracks breathe a bit. TRACKLIST...

Had a spot of USB trouble with this one, so 40 mins is what we've got. Covered quite a bit of ground in a short time, lower tempo with some worldly grooves and a couple of my own bits. Was annoyed to have to cut this one short! TRACKLIST 1 Even Funkier - Take Control 2 Fred Simon - Island Of Magic (feat. Amalia) 3 James Rod - You Are Me Dream (Sambasoul Re-Edit) 4 Fatnotronic & In Flagranti - Boto...

I’m back with the freebies after a bit of a break last month, and this time I’ve turned my attention to the wonderful House Party by Fred Wesley, from way back in 1980. I’ve kept things simple, beefing up that groove and extending a few parts to make it a real head nodder. It’s all about the trombone solo!

I was in a dusty old mood for this one as reflected in the music - lofi vibes into broken beat, a bit of acid and ending up, as so often happens, in disco land.. TRACKLIST Herbert - The Audience Muzi - Queen (Dan Kye Remix) Flaurese - Muscle Tissues Apparel Wax - MINI002A Felix Leifur - Feels Like Inverse Cinematics - Detroit Jazzin' (All Good Funk Alliance Remix) Momenta - Your Love (Fradinho Rem...

Episode 180 started fast and deep, and I accidentally went a bit too banging from the outset so had to rein things back in a touch. Kept things on the more underground side of matters this time, bouncing through the genres… and once it settles down I think it’s one of my better recent mixes. Some absolute belters in the last 15 mins! TRACKLIST KX9000 - High Def Jack District - Party Pumper Glenn U...

Funkier Sounds Episode 179 (moody funk and worldy jazz) by Funkier Radio by Even Funkier

First radio show for a while and I feel a bit bad for abandoning it. But easing myself back in with a simple selection of tunes that I love, with a few of my better ones sprinkled in too. Didn’t broadcast on Twitch, so this one’s a Soundcloud exclusive! Excuse some dodgy mixing and piss poor scratching! TRACKLIST Rare Silk - Storm The Pharcyde - Passin' Me By Lauryn Hill - Everything Is Everything...

I bookended this one with a pair of 80s classics, then the bit in between was a bit of everything. We had broken beat, boogie, garage vibes, disco, African sounds and some good old housey goodness. TRACKLIST The Human League - Love Action (I Believe in Love) Yvonne Brown - Goin’ Down (FunkyDeps Re-Edit) Elijah John Group - Keep A Little Love For Yourself Sirhan - Le Flute Michael Grey - Brother Br...

This month’s freebie is an edit of a tune that will always hold a special place in my heart, because it was top of the charts in the UK when I entered the world! Yes, Too Shy by Kajagoogoo was number one on Valentine’s Day 1983, and it feels like a good time to revisit it… and yep, I’m pretty shy so it still speaks to me! This one’s had my standard Funkier treatment of chopping up the extended ver...

Back once again with what’s really a continuation of last week’s fun session - a nice mix of funky bits with some disco early on, then things get a bit banging for a while. I do this most Mondays at 8pm on https://twitch.tv/evenfunkier. Maybe see you there one week…? TRACKLIST 1 Barbara Boeing & Stump Valley - Mar dei Sargassi 2 DJ Fudge - Keep On Wondering 3 Random Soul - No Credit (VIP Boogie Ex...

Here’s the latest episode of Funkier Sounds, which was a fun one - I DJ’d at a friend’s house party at the weekend, but the playlist I made didn’t copy over to my sticks. So rather than let it go to waste I used it for this show! So we’ve got a solid selection of chunky tunes with some soulful sounds, percussive acid vibes and choice disco cuts. TRACKLIST 1 Knuckle G - Whisper From The Heart 2 Ree...

Time for another Funkier Session, and we're keeping things international as we head over to Poland to tune into this great mix from Pan Funk. Filled with funky disco and disco house heat, lots of love has gone into this one - it's clear that he knows a thing or two about good tunes! Check out his soundcloud for more mixes - https://soundcloud.com/panfunk

Back with a full two hour session this week, covering a load of ground as always. We start chilled and magical, move into some bumpy grooves, take in some boogie and soulful sounds, get a bit banging for a while then finish with some wonderful disco. Fair share of curveballs thanks to The Cure and Phil Collins. I enjoyed it! TRACKLIST 1 Tour Maubourg, Ismael Ndir - Opening Theme 2 Hansi - Spanish...

First radio show for I think 5 weeks… whoops! Had a bit of stuff occurring, plus Christmas and all that, but that’s no excuse. It was a fun little session, just an hour to get a feel for it again. But it was alright. No real plan for this one, just played some tunes. TRACKLIST 1 Don Carlos - Alone Paradise 2 Jamie Antonelli - Divine 3 Robjamweb - Southern Breeze 4 Gee Lane - Neon Beach 5 Doc L. Ju...

This was my first one for a little while - personal and technological issues have been getting in the way once again. So it felt good to be back on for a full two hour mix! Started with a small tribute to the legend Jimmy Cliff, as the news of his passing broke a few hours before. Then into some moody and deep vibes for a while until I switched things up, we went to Africa for a while, slowed thin...

I’ve been unable to do my show for the last few weeks, so I was very happy to be back on Twitch for a full two hour sesh. I had no plan, so I jumped in at mid-tempo and worked my way up gradually. We had disco, deep house and boogie amongst other bits, and it was fun! TRACKLIST 1 First Choice - Love Thang (Dr Packer Rework) 2 Aurra - A Little Love [The Reflex Revision] 3 Even Funkier - Say The Wor...

So I very nearly didn’t have a free download for you this month - I was working on something but it didn’t work out and I had to abandon it. Then a family holiday took me out of action for a bit and left me with just a few days to rustle something up. I managed to pull it out of the bag by smashing two random tracks together, and I think it’s actually not half bad. It’s a Lady Gaga track called De...

Very happy to be back with a two hour session - my first for a little while. I’ve been downloading some new tunes recently so this was billed as a ‘new finds’ session, although it ended up being a bit of a mixed bag - some new bits, but interspersed with a few favourites from my collection. But a real mash up of styles and plenty of genre hopping! TRACKLIST 1 Fuga Ronto - L'uomo Invisible 2 Ben Ja...

Just a one hour session this week as I slowly recover from being ill, but since it’s my first one in three weeks it felt like I had to do some sort of mix. Kept this one slow and slinky, around the 100BPM mark throughout, and managed to cover a good amount of ground in 60 minutes - with some P-Funk, some Hip Hop, some R&B and some sexy disco vibes.

I kept things fairly moody for this one, with a mix of deep house and broken beat kinda vibes - it was fun flitting between 4/4 and those looser percussive vibes. Then things went a bit bumpy in the last half an hour or so, with a few US and UK garage flavaz just because I fancied it. Don’t forget - my show is now on Twitch, and broadcasting LIVE every Monday (an upgrade from the old radio show wh...

Times are a’changing for my Funkier Sounds radio show - I’ve made the difficult decision to take it off NDC, its home for the last few years. It’s purely so I can be a bit more flexible with when I do it and the format - guest mixes have been a real pain recently, so now I’ve got the freedom to do one hour, or two, with or without a guest mix. I’m going to try and do it weekly too instead of every...

This episode was a rather special one - it’s my last on NDC radio as I’ve chosen to move on from the late time slot to somewhere with a bit of flexibility while I ponder my next move. I’ll be taking it on to Twitch for a bit. So for this final episode I thought it would be nice to take a look back at some of the guests I’ve had since my little show started back in May 2019, so every track was an o...

My latest show was just me on my own again, just for an hour. But nevertheless I managed to cram in no fewer than FIVE of my recent tracks - two compilation appearances, one remix and my latest two free edits. And the rest of the hour was mostly made up of other tracks on the compilations I’m on, plus a few promos. Links to those edits below! https://soundcloud.com/evenfunkier/daddy-cool https://s...

I’ve somewhat dropped the ball on guest mixes, so this one was two hours of me - you lucky people?! It was fun though - starting things off slow and soulful and gradually building things up from there. 38 wonderful tracks from the worlds of funk & soul, disco, latin, boogie, electronica, house and more… I hope you enjoy!
