Funky DL for many years has been considered somewhat of an anomaly in the UK Hip-Hop scene. As an enthusiastic teenager hailing from Hackney, East London, his early endeavours saw him respectively securing a five- album record and publishing deal with Almo Sounds and Rondor Music Publishing back in 1997. In the same year, DL would end up winning a MOBO Award for Best Hip-Hop Act with his debut album “Classic Was The Day” (subsequently being nominated for the same award in the next two consecutive years). From therein, his focus began to shift towards becoming an international Hip-Hop icon, directing his music to audiences in Europe and Japan.

Following the prestige of Funky DL's 2012 Nights In Nippon Jazzstrumentals Album, the Beat-Making, Rhyme-Slaying Kid from the East returns with another 10 track beats bonanza! 'Incognito In Soho' is Funky DL's brand new instrumental album aimed at encapsulating the moods, colors, character and ambient vibes of late night and city life. With each track crafted as a fresh landscape for this project, this cohesive listening experience of 10 tracks in under 40 minutes showcases Funky DL's unmatched ability to curate beats and samples through layering, comprehensive filtering and effortless whilst meticulous arrangement. Many beat-makers release beat-tapes compiling old and second-rate throw away music from their archives, but DL's approach here is no different from when he is preparing to produce new music for his vocal work; only the best beats will do. This one of the fundamental reasons that Funky DL has been for so long considered a global treasure in Jazz and Hip-Hop production. 'Incognito In Soho' intends to take the listener through various emotive states from the lament of "The Glimmer of Nightfall", to the excitement of "Gallery of Glass", as well as the contrasts in "Turbulent Serenity", each track allows the listener to lose themselves into the exploration of the night; as if they were 'Incognito In Soho'.

Keeping in fashion with the theme of vocal lead samples and harmonic chorus styled chants, "Life After Dennison Instrumentals" continues from where the "Dennison Point Instrumentals" left off. Smooth, often melancholic and swinging from subtle to upfront, Funky DL demonstrates once again how to taste-make with breaks from a variety of sources and constructs a conceptual long-player landscape of superb instrumental audio.

Reissue with the latest DSD remastering. Comes with liner notes. A great album of funky Japanese fusion – one of the few sets from the Japanese scene of the late 70s that got any sort of wider release in the US – and a treasure that we've loved for years! The set's got a really great sound – soulful and funky, but sharp too – in a lineup that features a variety of keyboards from Masabumi Kikuchi, plus work by Terumasa Hino on trumpet, Steve Grossman and Dave Liebman on saxes, and James Mason on guitar! The best cuts have a funky feel that's in the CTI/Kudu mode – perhaps mixed with a bit of Herbie Hancock keyboard jamming – and the album's a surprisingly lost funky gem in the Columbia catalog of the early 80s, with a much harder edge than some of the other work on the label at the time!
