Greg Wilson 2nd October
To help us with the launch of our brand new Funktion One sound system, we have invited a true legend of the dance world.

He was also the first DJ to mix records live on TV on The Tube show in 1983, and went on to produce and co-write the Street Sounds ‘UK Electro’ LP in 1984, as well as compiling the ‘Classic Electro Mastercuts’ LP in 1994, cementing himself as an oracle of the genre.
