---> The Funky Seduction

Love this stuff.

Don't get me started on what I think of the whole rebranding of an already existent style of House - jumped up, urban London DJ's thinking they've invented the deeper side of House. Though I do admit, the sound is slowly developing.. perhaps in a few years a new sub-genre, god forbid it actually be called "Funky" (I mean, come on!), might give credence to their efforts today. But, as it stands, it's simply Deep House music.

ps. Do you know if that Supa D "Rinse 3" CD being sold is mixed? I'm assuming it is, would be awesome if it isn't, few tunes on there I'd like to have.

There are a few tunes you can buy right now. I've just bought DJ NG's Tell Me, Geenes & Zinc's tunes and, Foot Loose. Also check MA1's I'm Right Here on junodownload. I know that it isn't where I want it in what I want to hear but, I've been wanting something different lately. I've never really been interested in house music till now.

P.S. wasn't Dubstep just a "rebranding" of Garage music.

I'm well into this Supa D set off Rinse that makes me feel like a homozexual when I'm inwardly singing along to some diva style vocal tune

Some of its bland as fuck but who cares

really feeling the stuff apple's doing: raw, minimal, almost breaky house.

check the 'sample of wots to come' in particular.

http://www.myspace.com/appleko

his apple tec stuff is also pretty cool

this stuff is starting to get interesting.

I've been meaning to listen to apple for a while

Really feeling the tunes on his myspace, surprised he lives up to the hype

Im enjoying this stuff. Kemet fm in Notts has a good Funky House show.
I used to be big into Deep House & Broken Beat and to me this sound is nothing new. I don't think their is any need to rebrand it.
Regardless the tunes are deep and soulful just how i like it.
I like the idea of mc's over the top though and rewinds
Downloading the set on Blackdown now.

Got all them.. bar 'Tell Me'. Tune annoys me, always have, always will.

As for Dubstep.. to a degree yes, I mean it branched off from 2step didn't it. But at the same time it fast became it's own thing, with its own following. The majority of Dub today doesn't even sound like "Garage".. but that leads me on to my second point, without trying to get too geeky, but what is "Garage" anyway!? I consider Garage an off-shoot of US House music: chunky 4x4 drums, soulful vocals and rare groove sampling, skippy beats, jazzy.. And clearly alot of "2step" isn't that. So "UK Garage" was a bit of a branch off from the earlier stuff in it's own right, anyway.

agree in part but there is currently some more innovative stuff being made which isn't really anything like deep house or funky house in a traditional sense. i think something more concretely 'new' will emerge out of it sooner than a few years.

yeah it is mixed.

would be really good to have a comp of this stuff would give it a kick of exposure for people with a passing interest.

Im liking this "sometimes i wake up early in the morning" tune that Marcus Nasty is playing.
Not sure about the MC's though sounds abit wrong on this kind of music. Maybe it's just this particular MC being a tad Swag.

He just said "no homo bruv"
This is House music ffs. Would be funny if this turned into a homophobic Grime like scene. The Irony is almost too much.

While I agree that from what Ive heard and who's leading the scene over there that something new will come of it soon, I cant agree that (and again, this is only from what Ive heard) its anything new. I played house since 97 and was into pretty much every style of it except the over the top gospel or 'gay' house. I have tunes that sound all broken-beat and percussive from way back. File under deep tribal and/or SF deep/techy. Like I said though, I havent heard a lot of whats being classified as 'funky' over there, and would like to hear more and be proven wrong cause I love finding new genres and I cant wait to hear a new variant on one of my favorite styles.

LOL! Isnt it ironic, dont you think?

@ Kidlogic

Alot of it's sounds very King Britt/Seiji/IG Culture/Recloose influenced. Very much Broken Beat. It may morph into something more original though, which will be interesting.

well yeah, 'new' and 'house' is an oxymoron really but it's a variation on a theme, which the lineage of house always has been.

i'm interested in this stuff getting more grimey and techier whilst maintaining it's funkiness.

Yeah, the bits I have heard were right there... which is cool, I dig it... but...

This is exactly what I want to hear too. Maybe we just need to produce a little and help it along, eh Boomy?

This is dead on btw.

Buju House tune. Ive heard it all now

Waits for the "Boom by by" remix

As weird as that sounds, maybe house needs this ironic injection of masculinity (pun intended) with the MCs and the ragga vox and rewinds.

I really like the idea of hard, techy broken beat that still retains enough house influence to fall into that catagory, maybe this influx of grime heads will take it there.

Im going to try to make some tunes that would best be described by the descriptions of what it sounds like 'funky' sounds like, and not what Ive heard, and see what happens.

I agree i would love to hear a style of House music go in that direction.

Then when the sound got really big i would like to sit the people down and show them clips from the Paradise Garage etc and see the reaction they have to the Gay origins of House. Culture gone 360
