Funk loops & samples with really dance-tastic drumbeats, exciting bass lines, rhythmic guitars and brass that offer an offbeat flavor: Welcome to the funk section! Emerging from a range of soul, rhythm and blues influences as well as jazz, and characterized by icons like James Brown, Sly & The Family Stone and Prince, it's left its mark on modern genres such as hip-hop and house. A particularly unique variation of funk is electro funk, which features an instrumental foundation dominated by synthesizers. Fans of electronic sounds are catered for too.
