ALL GOOD FUNK ALLIANCE (Funk Weapons // Washington D.C)
—————————————————

The All Good Funk Alliance formed in 1997 and
consists of Frank Cueto and Rusty Belicek.
They’ve been creating music and DJ’ing since
1995 and have a slew of releases and remixes.
Their style blends funk, breaks, and Latin
grooves to produce a style unto their own.
Originally starting out producing house tracks,
the All Good Funk Alliance moved to the arena
of party breaks and renamed their house
persona to B-Team. Initially signing to Defective
out of Baltimore, and then having their third
release blow up on the classic label Maxi out
of New York the All Good boys were soon on
there way. They have been featured on several
mix comps, television shows, commercials and
a ton of labels. They have even opened up for
the legendary James Brown! The AGFA also run
the well respected Funk Weapons and Super
Hi-Fi labels which has been charted by the likes
of Quantic, Dublex Inc., XLR8R, and IDJ to
name a few.

NEIGHBOUR (Funk Weapons // Homebreakin’ Records)
—————————————————

One part sexy robot and one part aerobics instructor, 25 year old Matt
Dauncey has managed to find the middle ground between music and
athletics. By harnessing the power of wrestling suits, tennis
sweatbands, vintage synthesizers, and electric guitar, Neighbour has
tapped into an ancient power-source that has given him the capacity to
conjure up frenzied dancefloors wherever he is needed. Through a
mysterious process that involves not one, but TWO gigantic crystals,
the Homebreakin Records co-owner has managed to combine the raw
ecstacy of the early days of disco with razor-sharp futuristic
production.

His hybrid DJ / live performance tore across the continent this year,
culminating in an incredible series of festival dates across western
Canada, including headlining slots at Shambhala 2009, Soundwave, Bass
Coast Project, Astral Harvest, and Summer Break. In addition to
playing almost 100% original production and remixes, Neighbour plays
live synthesizer and electric guitar alongside his legendary DJ sets,
which range from no-nonsense electric funk bangers to gorgeous
technicolor remixes of classic garage, disco, and house music.

Not one to be pigeonholed, Neighbour has spent the better part of the
last two years collaborating with everyone in sight. Upcoming
dancehall tracks with Calgary’s Ouda Ouda, boogie-raps with fellow
performer MC ThinkTank, and an unbelieveable slate of remixes and
original releases guarantee that as soon as you think you know that
“Neighbour Sound”, it has grown into something completely different.

Some people say that dance music isn’t as fun as it used to be; then
again, some people haven’t seen a grown man in a unitard shoot lazers
out of his guitar far away into the night sky.
