Funkymix Collection ((better)) Info
The Funkymix Collection is a premier remix service for DJs that focuses on hip-hop, urban, rhythm crossover, and Latin music. Produced by Ultimix since 1985, these collections provide DJs with "club-ready" versions of popular tracks, featuring extended beat intros and outros to facilitate seamless transitions. 1. Core Features of the Collection
- Start with one loud piece. Let the Glitch Hoodie be the anchor.
- Layer in a pattern. Throw a striped long-sleeve under that checkered vest.
- Finish with heavy shoes. Chunky sneakers only. If they look like they belong on a moon rover, you’re doing it right.
The Origins: From DJ Booths to Digital Libraries
To understand the FUNKYMIX COLLECTION, we must go back to the 1980s and 1990s. During the golden age of remix services, DJs needed "exclusive" edits to differentiate themselves. They would take obscure funk records—like those from The Meters, Lyn Collins, or Jimmy Castor—and extend the percussive breaks. FUNKYMIX COLLECTION
Who Is This For?
- The DJ: Essential for transitioning between genres or finding that perfect 100 BPM groove to keep the floor moving.
- The Producer: A goldmine for sampling. Even if you don't sample directly, studying the arrangements teaches you everything you need to know about rhythm section dynamics.
- The Casual Listener: Be warned—this is not a passive listening experience. It demands movement. If you put this on at a party, the energy will immediately shift from "background chatter" to "people tapping their feet."
Video Remixes: For VJs, the Funkymix Video series provides music videos edited with the same DJ-friendly intros as the audio tracks. Community Perspective The Funkymix Collection is a premier remix service
