About this event

A monthly transmission from Pappafunk, airing every first Friday of the month, 2–4pm, live from the studio on Aaja Music via Mixcloud.

Across two hours, the show moves through old, new, and classic selections—cutting across genres, eras, and tempos without getting boxed in. It’s a guided but open-ended journey shaped by instinct and a deep record bag, where unexpected links between sounds often take the lead.

Broadcast live and streamed via aajamusic.com, the focus is on flow and exploration rather than format: digging through decades of music with no fixed boundaries, just a steady thread of musical connections as they unfold in real time.

A monthly ritual for listeners who prefer their radio unfixed, slightly unpredictable, and rooted in listening rather than genre rules.

Lineup

Pappafunk

His all-vinyl sets dive deep across genres—funk, soul, house, jazz, reggae, hip-hop, disco, and leftfield club sounds—blending eras and energies to create timeless, groove-heavy experiences rooted in feeling, not trends. With a signature style built on precision, depth, and instinct, PappaFunk delivers proper selections that connect with dancers, heads, and casual listeners alike. No gimmicks, no shortcuts—just soulful, analog DJing that moves the room and keeps the culture alive. He’s performed at respected venues including Shoreditch House, BBE Store, Jumbi, Café 1001, Omeara, and Jazu, and was a featured at ADE and Creekside Festival in 2024. As a resident at AAJA Music, he curates a monthly radio show showcasing rare grooves and global gems. On Twitch, his weekly livestreams (under PTV) have built a loyal international following, earning him collaborations with artists like Dez Andrés and Delano Smith, and co-signs from legends like Maurice Fulton and DJ Sneak. PappaFunk’s deep knowledge, effortless versatility, and analog approach set him apart—whether he’s in a 200-cap basement, your local boozer or a festival setting. He brings intention and soul to every set, with a focus on curation, energy, and connection.
