For those that missed the live broadcast here’s the final part of Jimmy Monsta Funk’s mix series going out on Seance radio. Six-hours worth of sessions in total recorded in three blocks of single takes, and since split in to two-hour shows for broadcast.
If you’ve not checked Part 1 yet, it’s worth starting with Part 1: https://awkmo.co/the-monsta-funk-sessions-on-seance-2/
And then Part 2 here: https://awkmo.co/the-monsta-funk-sessions-on-seance/
150 records and six hours on from where he started, Jimmy Monsta Funk ties up ‘So Last Year’ with his feet firmly planted in house and techno. For those coming to the party late these mixes were comprised solely of tunes JMF picked up across 2014, selected and blended to perfection.
It’s getting hard to find DJs playing live like this anymore, and even rarer to find them doing it this good. Big ups Jimmy Monsta Funk, proper master selector.
Over the course of the next three Friday evenings Seance Radio has something different lined up for you between the hours of 21:00-23:00 UTC – www.seanceradio.co.uk
Awkward Movements presents The Monsta Funk Sessions
Something special here from one of the finest selectors and record collections we know. 6 hours worth of live recorded wax only sessions, done in three blocks with no edits and no redoes. All records that Jimmy Monsta Funk purchased in 2014, crossing over genres like no one else can, mixed to perfection.
Jimmy Monsta Funk is like the preacher from the electronic music church. The bits he writes for us are mostly based on the scene’s coming back around and deeper music history from a head who experienced it back in the day. But through a love of music and a constant to desire to learn he’s somehow achieved what few others do and stayed relevant without caring about times or scenes. The man absorbs knowledge like no one else and has played techno in every major city across the world. The everlasting influence comes from Detroit’s ‘Belleville Three’ (Derrick May, Juan Atkins and Kevin Saunderson), who in his opinion ‘have crafted some of the most amazing music and influenced a raft of budding home studio producers to release their tracks’.
