D&#8217;L-Ectro Funk. \u00a0Remember that name. \u00a0Like when Stuart Marconnie wrote in N.M.E the Iconic words &#8216;Britt Pop&#8217; to describe the era with much focus on OASIS and Blur&#8217;s\u00a0rivalry, Pulp and all the rest.<\/p>\n<p>OK, reality check. \u00a0D&#8217;l-Ectro Funk or not my point is that this guy has developed a sound and used it as a traceable narrative through the majority of his music. \u00a0It doesn&#8217;t matter if it&#8217;s Bay Breeze from 2012 or any other Gilbert Le Funk track his subtle sound is a lesson to all aspiring dance music producers including me.
