Work It

From the days of Funky House and Dirty Breaks came an cross-border duo called The Beat Freakers. Full of funk and big skills in performing live, The Beat Freakers testified to the Chicago and Toronto underground during the early-mid 2000's. A dynamic fusion of phat tracks and funky styles left its mark whether playing to massive sold-out indoor venues, or playing from the back of a rental truck to the most willing listeners. Again, The Beat Freakers - a class act that has been on hiatus. Wonder what their new word will be?

Killa Sound

Free download of Zinc's
Killer Sound EP.
Mini release of remodeled House music. UK Funky is a bit like UK Garage, subtly more 4/4.

“I like the vibe of that scene,” Zinc says. “It sounds like a cross between regular house and UK garage, with mainly 4/4 beats and basslines, but not as fast or cheesy as Bassline House.”

Beijing Nightlife, as the city prepared for the arrival of Zinc.
