It’s the kind of night where you stumble across new favourites, talk shop with collectors, and meet people who appreciate music with real character.

Vinyl collector and dancer, Mati has been hosting events for London’s funk dance community since the early 2000s.

With deep ties to the Legendary Collector, DJ & Dancer Keb Darge also having spun at vinyl dance parties with his renowned Deep Funk DJing partner soul-funk artist Nia Saw, Mati has recently joined forces with fellow West London based funky crate digger George Aresti to revive the iconic Deep Funk vinyl dance nights (originally hosted by Keb Darge) carrying on the legacy of the original Soho sessions that inspired a generation of dancers and diggers alike.

A West London native whose DJ journey began in the mid-90s, George made his name through a string of long-running funk and rare groove nights across the capital.
