Boogie Lights Drops Groovy Tech-house Single “Keep The Funk”
Boogie Lights, the Denver-based DJ-producer-multi-instrumentalist known for reimagining disco and house through a funk lens, is gearing up to release his debut album DISCO DANCE THERAPY. Now the versatile artist drops the LP’s second single “Keep The Funk,” an energetic track that aims to revive a funk spirit within the new wave of tech-house music. A groovy anthem featuring contributions from The Boogie Bunch guitarist Rix (Ricky Feria), “Keep The Funk” masterfully blends live instrumentation with a pulsating house beat and a sample from the YouTube video “What Does Funk Mean? Prince Theory” by the channel ‘Prince’s Friend.’
“Aiming to bring funk back to house music – specifically to the new wave of tech-house – this groovy track combines live instrumentation with a punchy house beat and a YouTube sample that defines what funk music truly means.” – Boogie Lights
“Keep The Funk” begins with a tech-house four on the floor rhythm that draws listeners through an exploration of funk music’s core elements. The song prominently features altered vocals from Eloy Lasanta, the creator of the ‘Prince’s Friend’ YouTube channel, as he delves into the essence of funk and its distinction from electronic music. With permission from the YouTube creator, Boogie Lights transforms his voice to guide listeners on a sonic voyage while toeing the line between these two genres. “Keep The Funk” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
