This was described as funky house back when it was released, and it is one of my all-time favourite songs!

 

 

Never gets old, it's so perfect for every summer :heart:

Banger :music:

I was only messin' with you TheSnake! Lotti PMed you GIRLI so I was curious to know your response to Tara.

 

Don't leave because of this! In hindsight I probably shouldn't have done that as I don't know you too well. I do apologise, this definitely won't be happening again.

 

(In all seriousness 'I Feel Love' is the pinnacle of disco)

 

Well it wasnt that funny. This was only meant to be a small thread in the Dance forum. You didnt all have to spam on here.

 

I thought if there are threads for Robbie Williams or The Saturdays, then why not one for funky house

 

Perhaps I will stay here and hold my own against those who dont like me on here.

 

I Feel Love was the first use of disco together with electronic music though.

 

Anyway I dislike the term funky house I prefer nu disco. For those wondering what it is it is a genre which utilises usually piano, strings and big disco vocals or disco influences. If you want an example from this decade it would be Bakermat - Teach Me.

 

I know why you were spamming or trolling, because I was number 10 on tge posters tgread, but I had a bad time with double posting accidentally :(

Okay well that's where our sense of humour differs. I admit I was in the wrong though as you're new and you wouldn't have known my sense of humour yet! In hindsight I do regret these actions.

 

And you being #10 in The Posters' chart is a good thing! I wasn't involved in the last argument in that thread and encourage you to post whatever you want!

 

Again apologies.

 

(And Bakermat is fab!)

Now here's a rly good funky house top 10 smasher

 

 

Thats great I have never heard this one before.

 

Jade and everyone else who was spamming, I know that you didnt do it deliberately to get me off the forum. Don't worry i won't be jaded by that. :lol: I have decided to stay here.

 

The Bakermat is a subgenre of funky house, known as gospel house. Similar to this one . Top 20 in early 2006 :) And Princess Lotti, i suppose the bright colours in the video are similar to that GIRLI video but nothing else :lol:

 

Thanks everyone for your suggestions, I don't usually like the organ house variant of funky house (it was overused last year) but I will post this amazing track that was one of the biggest dance tracks of 2003.

 

Also from 2003, but much more disco influenced

This is really good - :wub:

 

Snake you should totally start a personal chart, by the looks of it you have a great music taste :D

One of my favourite remixes

 

Classics

 

 

 

Omg keep the fire biring and Male a move on me :music:

Yes the mid 2000s were great for dance I thought, a lot of people didn't like that period because they liked trance. But trance was already dead and we had the likes of Special D and the later Flip and Fill stuff which i never liked before the funky house period of 2004 to 2006.

 

I know people don't like the 80s remixes at the time, but one stood out for me

 

 

But the best was the proper funky house, like this

 

 

 

And for something a bit more underground/ chilled sounding, this

 

 

And these...

 

 

bakermat's 'teach me' is a good example as a recent funky/club house track :dance:, however i can confirm that it could never in a million years be classified as nu-disco ~ not without offending a LOT of people!

This is the one which always immediately comes to mind when I hear the term "funky house"

 

 

Yes thats fantastic, Bob Sinclar was one of those who invented the filtered strings effect. Songs like this used them, this has got to be the pinnacle of the mid 00s chart boom in funky house musically. But why such a bad video, i think these bad videos are the cause of many peoples dislike of funky house :(

 

 

And on the subject of Bob Sinclar, is funky house really French house? The characteristics on wikipedia of French house are very similar to that of funky.

 

Actually for this decade this is a great example of funky house. Pity it didn't do well in the charts

Is Brave New World by Charlotte Church funky house or Illo's Rapture??
Neither are funky house.

 

'Brave New World' is trance and 'Rapture' is house/dance-pop. ^_^

iio - rapture ~ progressive house/trance

jurgen vries - brave new world ~ trance

nero - must be the feeling ~ dubstep/grime

 

:lol:

Unfortunately Crazy Chick probably is funky house but not good funky house imo :(

 

I don't like all funky house. I never liked Junior Senior (although the drop is good in Move Your Feet but the song is annoying). I never really liked Just Wont Do by Tim Deluxe and Sam Obernik, again I find it a bit annoying I don't know why. I prefer the later stuff in the chart after Lola's Theme, which revolutionised the genre.

 

If you are looking for a trance song with disco influences this cover by Kelly Llorenna is great, I remember hearing it when ice skating when I was younger :)

 

 

 

Crazy Chick is in no way funky house :lol: are you sure that's the song you're thinking of??

 

That 'Tell It To My Heart' cover is good :dance:
