Hey guys would anyone here mind pointing me to some good funk and house music
no but seriously, just follow the trail.
find an artist you like and look at the labels they are on then look at those artists
rinse and repeat.

good call fox, i learned about tunes through getting compilations, then looking for the tunes that i liked off those discs, then looking on the labels for similar artists.

" I’m the Dude, so that’s what you call me. That or, uh His Dudeness, or uh Duder, or El Duderino, if you’re not into the whole brevity thing. "
that works too but i find compilations to be generally shit/mainstream. but i guess if u find ones u like then all the moar power to ya. the only real comps. we get are MoS... fael
the internet is a powerful tool, and google is your friend.
fart.
Find good funk/house DJ's you like, find tracklistings for their live sets and then dig from there.
yeah that was before i had net access, now those discs are gathering dust!
