HISTORY OF THE LABELThe label “ Funkdango music recordings “ was born under to influence of new electronic trends as well as the current blend of all types of musical concepts. It is trying to bring about a different vision to the musical scene mixing in with clear details of funk electro and break thus bringing a whole new meaning to club electro. The recent transformation in music have laid down the label’s guidelines. Today almost anything goes to create groove on the dancefloors. This is seen in present productions where the fusion of various elements creates rhythms which would have been inconceivable in the past.In it’s production, Funkdango, bases itself on these structural changes, but does not limit itself to only current trends. It brings together the latest electronic sounds, strong baselines and studied background tracks to create an energetic sound on the dancefloor. To achieve this it takes from the electro sound of the 80 s the house and funk of the 90’s and from the great choice of sounds available today at our studio’s musical libraries.IBIZA.BOOKING Music&Management +34 630 70 75 05 +34 638 17 66 78 +34 971 30 85 71 [email protected] [email protected] www.carloslamar.com
