One half of the Cosa nostra duo which now boasts the likes of soul vocalist Miss Mic and guitarist Mr Moon, the Funk Bastard has been tirelessly pushing and promoting an alternative expression of leftfield music through his widely eclectic, genre-bending sets. The danceandsoul website has been listed on STRAIGHT NO CHASER'S as one of THE sites to visit and it is no surprise when one hears his musical selection which traverses between a huge variety of musical genres, be it deep jazz, soul, funk, boogie, brazilian grooves, house, hip hop or any other assorted cosmic beats.  His unique sets have taken him around the region and has played alongside the likes of Recloose, Jazzanova, Koop, Joakim, Pablo Valentino, Dj Lefto, Quasimode, Yukihiro Fukutomi, Nik Weston, Russ Dewbury at the legendary JAZZROOMS in Brighton and many others.

Ventures into production with partner Kaye has led to the formation of the Cosa Nostra project and their tracks has been charted and played on the airwaves around the globe on shows like Beyondjazz, milkaudio (Canada), BlackandBlue (Perth/Australia), Stylin' radio show (Melbourne/Australia), Department Deluxe radio show (Germany) and Basic soul radio show (UK). Their most recent remix for Italian jazz outfit, IDEA 6 has been released in Japan, alongside a stellar cast of remixers including 7 Samurai, Gerado Frisina, Nicola Conte and Quasimode. Most recently, Cosa Nostra was one of the few locally chosen outfits to have played in Gilles Peterson's Worldwide festival in Singapore.  The Funk Bast*rd always has something in the box that surprises. Just open dem ears.

"Def one to watch out for..." -Recloose on Hit it and Quit it radio show, George FM, NZ.
"One of the forerunners in the Asia pacific scene" - Russ Dewbury, Jazzrooms, Brighton, UK.
"Quality selector!" - Ennio Styles, Stylin Radio, Melbourne RRR
