this sound is UK FUNKY

I came across some interesting sounds during our last venture out to Fabric: London
Whilst the night was predominately Dubstep/Drum & Bass...one DJ/Producer known as ROSKA, was destroying the D-floor with his a unique selection of tempo bending tunes..
These tunes contained elements of glitchy beeps, tech house, tribal sounds and were stitched together with heavy/basslines, breakbeats and elements of grime/garage vocals. UK Funky is far from what one can imagine when thinking of typical 'funky' music...but in a way the structure makes it very danceable, and this was proven by the packed Room 2 in Fabric.

The ability of Roska to seamlessly blend bass heavy dubstep with smooth vibing tech has meant that his very recent Radio 1 Essential Mix has been on replay on my ipod, along with a selection of fresh sounds coming out of this musical utopia......the UK.
