4 Hours Of Function, Live Recordings From Malmoe


Helena

Recommended Posts

We've been running Function as a monthly across-the-board soul & funk club for over three years now in Malmoe, Sweden. Our crowd (about 500 punters in their 20's- 40's) is fantastic and open-minded.

On March 20th, our guest dj Johnny Hitman from Soulkombinat in Berlin, recorded all sets directly from the decks. So now we have 4 hours of uncut music from an entire Function night to share. It's been great fun listening to the mixes and we plan to record more nights in the future and make this a regular feature on our website.

Hope you enjoy!

Wow Helena! I can tell you quite a few people in the UK would dream of a club like that - "500 open minded punters"....."monthly gig"....etc. So you must be doing something right :thumbsup:

Brilliant, great tunes. Hopefully make it over soon.

you have got really good taste ....

Thanks for the comments everyone! :yes: We're glad that you're enjoying the tunes. :D As Helena wrote above, we will try to record some more of our nights and put up the audio here (and elsewhere).

.....always pop down to the great beaches of Skanor with my family

The Skanor / Falsterbo region sure is lovely. Some of the nicest beaches I've ever been to and the nearby villages are well worth a visit. Check out the beautiful Osterlen region (Kivik, Simrishamn, Vik, Kaseberga etc.) located on the eastern side of Skane on your next trip if you haven't been there earlier. :thumbsup:

Thanks all for your comments. And thanks again Johnny Hitman for an excellent job behind the decks and for recording the night!

Yes Steve, we ARE very grateful. :lol:

It's a lucky combination I think of a great popular venue in the city, a very cultural city with lots of music-interested people and of course four enthusiastic and ambitious residents/promoters...
