FunkinYou continue their KOKO residency on February 2nd, with a flurry of pumping house from special guest DJs and underground scene-setters. Playing the first Saturday of every month, FunkinYou’s relationship with the Camden hub has blossomed; with house-head’s flocking to the venue in droves and busting-their-shiznit to the throbbing, funky electro beats on offer.
As per-usual the FunkinYou crew is pulling out all the stops, with an exclusive set by regular DJ/Producer Thomas Gold. Having travelled here, there and up-your-stair with the FunkinYou fraternity in 2007, Gold is one of the primary reasons the club-night has become the house connoisseurs choice for filthy, funky electro basslines and pumping tunes.
Joining Gold will be a host of top-notch talent from the underground scene, including resident DJ Mr. Arkoss. Not one to beat about the bush, Arkoss delivers everything from deep, soulful house through to rougher-cut, pounding electro tech. Just as long as it’s getting hardcore on the dancefloor, the man’s a happy bunny. Joining both Arkoss and Gold will be Philgood and Ram, and Mario C with their own blend of underground house and deep, dirty basslines.
DJs Dennis Veli, Blake Baker, Paul Malcolm: Lenny G and Jim Lansdown, will all be spinning their yarn in the second room, with FunkinYou’s usual foray into house-scene superstardom. And while the beautiful boys and girls are getting familiar on the floor; acts including contortionists, live percussion and trapeze will be creating the ultimate carnival atmosphere through to the early hours of Sunday morn.
Trust us; believe us; take our word when we say; February is gonna be a month to remember… even if house ain’t your scene.
