i know its a petty matter, and music is music blah blah blah but i think its a bit strange that this subforum is just called "funky". so if you could find it in your heart to vote on a new name, that would be great. and maybe the powers that be will consider granting our wishes in changing the name of our meeting place where we discuss all that is house.
cheers

I think it should be called UK Garage. Unfortunately that isn't one of the choices...

i didnt list that because there is too much good US house that should be included here

seems as though people from other genres fear the term House.
just name it that, because thats what this is.

I voted for Rare Grooves just for a laff, but it really should be house

to be fair all that needs to be done is swap the funky and house around, so it says
House
funky, deep, other
or something rather than what it currently is:
Funky
House

this, or gabber, keeps the trolls @ bay. or even just name it House, just house, not the way it is...it looks like "funky house" which it isnt.

Most pointless thread ever. If you people had your way UK Funky wouldn't have the stupidest (but best) name ever

I have to agree with this. Leave it as Funky, I actually like the genre name
