‘Funk You’ is the debut release from singer writer producer ndge (pronounced ‘nudge’). It was recorded at he/they’s home studio in Essex, England. This multi-instrumentalist producer has an individual style and attitude to music making. Not following the expected nor the formulaic yet willing to delve into the past to inform something new. According to ndge; “Music can perform many functions, not just entertainment, but sometimes having a message people can empathise with or feel for themselves. ‘Funk You’ was an attempt to get back at the bullies out there and to have some fun while doing it.”

ndge has made music before but never like this. He / they was content to leave music making behind and just be immersed in a 3,000 plus vinyl record

collection at home. “I was happy losing myself in the sounds and genius of all those records from the last seventy years. I had no intentions of my own at this point”.

Then a couple of years ago the songs just started coming along, enough for an album; both short ‘singles’ and longer ‘album’ tracks. “The music made me do it!” says ndge. “I had to respect the songs but do it my way. Put a project studio together and start getting them down.”
