There's alot of good stuff, but equally alot of pap, youve just gotta be able to distinguish the good from the bad ;) There's alot of people jumpin on the bandwagon n trying to make n play funky house due to it being the trend right now.

Totally agree with you Debs, them guys have got soul n funk :thumbsup:

They always seem to be the ones who take that one step further....superb......... :thumbsup:

Ben......hi hun.....i was coming from the angle i think Biskit is.....its not jus personal taste sometimes...(although that does count for all music interests) its about the funky house sound for me......there seem to be lot of mediocre artists out there slamming the same ol riff's and bass lines that feature on a lot of other tunes and think they have a tune...it just gets boring......but the good stuff is defo worth listening to.......silcone soul another crackin name.... phones:

Up North, pint o tetley
quality funky house is quality

the only music other than drum and bass that'll make my legs twitch
on a night out these days


but as with all genre's theirs always crap

but these days, with the technology its easier for a wider range of chav to produce 'noise' or music in some peoples ears

Hiya Hun :)

I do agree with what you said on a lot of the stuff using the same old riffs / basslines etc etc , and a lot of the stuff at the mo does all sound the same . . in the time ive been listenin to it not erd too much that sounds new and fresh so to speak . . .

was just his comment sayin " you have to be able to distinguish the good from the bad" really confused me , as you make yr mind up for yrself when youve erd summat for the 1st time weather its crap or not , just cos someone says "its fookin crap" dont make it crap in my book ,

if yr a dj that actual plays it out regular then that comment would have made a lot more sense to me ;) ;) cos you gotta be playin all the best / newest & freshest stuff about , to stay ahead and stand out from all the djs that are jumpin on the funky house bandwagon and playin the same old borin stuff that all sounds the same/similar :)

Funky House is definitely a shit word. Nobody knows what it really mean. MAW is definately Deep or Latin-Hoose. For me Funky House is a word for the commercial shit out there like Call On Me, Shitdust, Daft Crap and this Star To Fall crap Ive seen on TV yesterday
