About Us

Pure Phunk began in 2000 as the brainchild of Toronto breaks DJ D-Monic with the goal of raising the quality level in local breaks events. Pure Phunk moved quickly to raise the profile of breakbeat culture in Toronto.
In 10 years, the focus of Pure Phunk has shifted a few times. We have seen a record label, booking agency, and numerous more parties take place in a wide variety of venues around the city.Read more about us »

XLR8R Podcast: Moby’s Old-School Rave Mix!

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

Amazing! I’ve seen Moby DJ twice in the good old ‘rave‘ days. Those were happy times, and this mix bring back memories.
Words: Shawn Reynaldo (XLR8R)
It’s easy to throw around words like ‘legend’ and ‘pioneer’ when talking about electronic music, and let’s face it, half the time people won’t say boo about these labels, [...]

The Loops of Fury have been causing quite a stir recently, first with their HUGE single ‘Flick A Switch’ (3 months in the Top 50 on Beatport), and then with their ‘Tech-Funk Vol.1′ mix compilation on U&A, while booting many a dancefloor up the arse with their punk-electro anthem SOAP, again on U&A.
They touched [...]

Free Tune from NAPT

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Seems to be ‘free tune’ month! That’s OK by me…
So, everyone knows I’m not the biggest fan of NAPT. Don’t know why, really… everyone else I know goes on at length about them, but I just don’t see it. I’ve only played maybe… 1? … 2? of their tunes? [...]

Hubbz-a Hubbz-a

Monday, May 24th, 2010

OK… so I met Hubbz many years ago.  I remember him most as one of the engineers for my 1Groove.com radio show.  Those late nights were fun times.  :)
So, he moved to Vancouver one day, and it was only after that that I really noticed his DJ ability (sadly).
I got a CD from him once [...]

Mooonbass!

Monday, May 24th, 2010

K, I don’t usually mention or promote other peoples’ events, or events I have absolutely no attachment to whatsoever, but this one makes me laugh.
While not a new promotion technique, this is pretty new for the local jungle scene.
Check this:

Pretty clever, eh?
While your at it, check out this promo mix from Mr. Brown.  Somewhere, Mr. [...]
