Launched in Cape Town, on the 40th anniversary of Motown records in
May 1998, Mofunk celebrates all that encapsulates the very soul of the
Motown era, ranging from Soul classics to Disco anthems and ignited by
rare Funk.
The definition of a Mofunk party can be described as A "Hip Movement",
as you learn to think from the hip on down. This is indeed the
redefinition of having a good time, with a stylish twist.
Mofunk first started at 169 on Long in Cape Town and, since then,
there have been 100 national Mofunk events in the last decade, held in the
Mother City, Durban and Johannesburg. They have been well received with
over 67 000 people bearing witness to the Mofunk Phenomenon, The ultimate
Disco Inferno.

The events are styled for the evening, by way of music as well as
décor which creates a glamorous atmosphere conducive to having that
special evening. While the success of the parties relates to a unique
crowd with discerning interests - one can either dance or amiably chat the
night away as the music provides room for such a platform - which is
always a welcome change.
The 101st Mofunk party is to be held at Bambu in Greenpoint on the 1st
of November, and the line-up has been changed to make way for new blood.
Miss H (The Boogie) joins up on warm up to deliver nothing but the most
soulful of tracks with a fresh twist. Next up MRMO dropping Disco anthems
and Funk classics, followed by Diggr Barnz (forgotten Free-quencies) who
makes a welcome debut, in the funk graveyard that is the closing set of
the new line up, expect some dusty jewels and surprise 7 inch gems.
