FUNKAGENDA
DIBBY DOUGHERTY
COL HAMILTON
'He knows what is what, but he dont know what is what, he's just strutts, WTF!'
...
FUNKAGENDA returns to Lush! for the last weekend in January for what will be another night of quality house music. It's hard to know what to say about this man, except he knows how to get a room pumping.
He will be joined by DIBBY DOUGHERTY(yello). Dibby plays a unique blend of deep and chunky house and is the perfect warm up for the main man.
Resident Dj & Promoter Col Hamilton will also be on hand doing his thing!
Funkagenda Biog....
If you haven’t heard of Funkagenda by now then where have you been hiding?
Over the last 4 years, he has become a name synonymous with quality house music.
Already having featured on labels as prominent as TOOLROOM, POSITIVA, DEFECTED, AZULI, MINISTRY OF SOUND, SIZE, BIG LOVE and SUBLIMINAL, his production and remix skills are highly sought after worldwide.
And production is not the only string in his bow... His DJ talents are also a permanent fixture in clubs around the globe, with 2008 seeing him travelling to AMERICA, CANADA, RUSSIA, SOUTH AMERICA, ROMANIA, POLAND, SPAIN, FRANCE, ISREAL, SERBIA, GREECE and many more.
Starting his career at the age of just 13, helping to program backing tracks for his fathers club act, he quickly got a taste for music and life on the road. He formed his own bands at high school and became a multi instrumentalist, locking himself away in his home 4-Track studio for days at a time.
Then as he hit his late teens, amidst fronting a soft rock band, he was lured into the charms of dance music by the legendary VOODOO RAY.
From this point on it was a love affair, and whilst he continued to learn the more conventional side of music at college, with his A levels etc, he was burning the midnight oil in his home studio crafting Drum + Bass and Techno works.
In the late 90s during the house explosion it was here that he found his home. The hypnotic rhythms of ROGER SANCHEZ, DAVID MORALES and MAW were a perfect fusion of musicality + dance floor sophistication, and institutions such as WOBBLE and the mighty GODSKITCHEN were a Mecca for clubbers across the UK.
He began to learn the delicate art of DJing, although after years of manually timing beats on bargain basement samplers, this was not as difficult as he thought and soon he was picking up bar and small club residencies.
But his true love was production and at this point, with the price of a Dub Plate being about £50 it was not cost efficient to play your own material.
Enter the CDJ! Thanks to the wizards at PIONEER, many a bedroom producer now had the ability to play their own works out, and Funkagenda became a master...
Always re-editing and remixing tracks into his own style, his sets have a unique sound.
Currently enjoying huge support from the likes of MARK KNIGHT, PETE TONG, AXWELL, DIRTY SOUTH, STEVE ANGELLO, SEBASTIAN INGROSSO + even ARMIN VAN BURREN, Funkagenda is a driving force in house music today...
So we say again, where have you been hiding?!
