About

Funky House is a subgenre of house music characterized by its prominent use of funk samples, disco influences, and a generally upbeat and energetic feel. It often incorporates live instrumentation or samples of instruments like guitars, horns, and keyboards to create a groovy and danceable sound.

History

Funky house emerged in the mid-1990s as house music producers began incorporating elements of funk and disco into their tracks. DJs and producers sought to move away from the harder, more repetitive sounds of early house and techno, and instead embraced a more soulful and musical approach. The genre gained popularity in clubs and on dancefloors around the world, and continues to be a popular style of house music today.
