About Me

Scott McGill, by day a downtown graphic designer, but by night....... .....Clubbing on his birthday (1994) at Voodoo switched Scott onto the sounds of techno, acid house, and electro. It was here he heard the likes of Andrew Weatherall, Green Velvet, Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Stacey Pullen, Laurent Garnier and Robert Hood. Not long after he became an avid collector of vinyl and it's rarities, which duly led to djing.From here his djing skill was recognised and has led to him playing at clubs such as Ideal (Wolverhampton), Bad Taste Sessions (Ireland), Hanky Panky (Peterborough), and Force (Leicester), Superconductor (Leeds), Voodoo (Liverpool), Alcatraz (Liverpool) and of course his own night - T-Funkshun.T-Funkshun was a challenge to bring Detroit techno, and deep soulful music back to Liverpools nightlife. Scott's versatility playing anything from jazz, disco to electronic music, and determination were reciprocated by good friend Mark Forshaw; so subsequently turned T-Funkshun into the success that we know.Nearly 5 years of bringing some of the world's greatest talents to the UK, for the first time in some cases, has left him with a great scrapbook, CV, and a bulging contacts book. Now T-Funkshun has been halted so Scott can fill his potential more personally as a dj, artist, and lover of music. Keep your ear to the ground.
