Funky DL - Enharmonia - 2025

Legendary London-based MC/Producer Funky DL is back with a brand new 6-Track EP entitled "Enharmonia". 

" Funky DL returns with "Enharmonia", a project that bridges the past and present, delivering a sound that’s as nostalgic as it is refreshingly new.  DL brings his unique sound, taking the listener on a journey of silky jazz samples, boom-bap beats, and modern hip-hop sensibilities. 

The project explores themes of unity, identity, and the human experience, all while keeping heads nodding and speakers pounding. The name Enharmonia plays on the musical term “enharmonic”- where two notes sound identical but are technically different. It’s a powerful metaphor for our shared humanity: we may come from different walks of life, but at our core, we feel the same emotions, fight the same battles, and chase the same dreams. 

From the unifying anthem, "Just One or Two," to the sharp social commentary of "Artificial Intelligence," this project is packed with depth, energy, and boom-bap groove. Whether you’re a longtime Funky DL fan or a first-time listener, Enharmonia is here to pull you in, make you think, and keep you vibing. " courtesy of Funky DL's Bandcamp.

Funky DL - Jazz Dust - 2021

 

Funky DL is back with a brand new instrumental project entitled "Jazz Dust" which is a 10-Track EP paying homage to Pete Rock and Q-Tip : 

"Eloquently produced, Jazz Dust showcases Funky DL's eclectic creativity in producing some of the finest instrumental albums. 

In offering of a less polished sheen to the sound, the dust and crackles are deliberate and help retain the raw and authentic feel of Jazz and Hip-Hop. DL displays his instinctive nature in approaching the production. Nothing is overthought or over complicated, instead the album takes a smooth ride across a range of moods that work just for what they are. 

The musical themes (directly and indirectly) pay homage to both Pete Rock and Q-Tip (A Tribe Called Quest), the famed New York Producers responsible for a plethora of Hip-Hop classics over the years. 

With essences of familiarity from the extensive catalogue of each, Jazz Dust hosts both subtle and obvious reminders of their works, which Funky DL cleverly weaves and stitches throughout this project; including hints of: 

"Electric Relaxation" - A Tribe Called Quest 

"Butter" - A Tribe Called Quest 

"Carmel City" - Pete Rock & CL Smooth 

"Act Like You Know" - Pete Rock & CL Smooth 

"Let's Ride" - Q-Tip 

"La Schmoove" - (Fu-Schnickens) - Produced by A Tribe Called Quest 

"For Pete's Sake" - Pete Rock & CL Smooth 

"Hot Sex" - A Tribe Called Quest 

Overall, this instrumental album pull no punches. Instead, what DL offers is an uncut insight into the sentiments that go towards being one of the finest Hip-Hop Producers to ever sprinkle... Jazz Dust. " - courtesy of Funky DL's Bandcamp
