The Fort Knox Five have made a huge impact on the international Funk and Breaks scene over this past year, with the release of five critically acclaimed singles on their own independent label, Fort Knox Recordings. FK5 flawlessly fuse live instrumentation with modern electronics to create their signature funk driven sound. They have brought their top production style to a slew of party rocking remixes for the legendary Tower of Power, Dr. Rubberfunk, Dynamo Productions, Rodney Hunter and Mo' Horizons - and have been called upon by the godfather himself, Afrika Bambaataa, to produce four cuts for his upcoming album on Tommy Boy Records.

With a unique DJ style that ranges from eclectic downbeat to upbeat funk and soul breaks, the Fort Knox Five have travelled the world with stops in Russia, Germany, Hungary, Holland, Switzerland, Canada, and everywhere else in between.

Keep an eye out for more floor rocking music from the Fort Knox Five, including their first full length album to be released later this year.

Fort Knox Recordings is a new renegade funk n' soul imprint, from Eighteenth Street Lounge artists Thunderball. Exploring the funkier side of all things breakbeat, Fort Knox doesn't pigeonhole itself into one tempo or genre. The Fort Knox Five are composed of Steve Raskin and Sid Barcelona, along with longtime musical compatriots Rob Myers (sitar and guitar with Thunderball / Thievery Corporation), Jon H (JonH and Raskal) and Steven Albert (drums / guitar / bass with Thunderball / Thievery Corporation). "Dodge City Rockers" is a funky hip hop flavored breaks track for dancefloors. All Good Funk Alliance turn in a bombastic chunky mix. The EP is rounded out with a smoked out downtempo cut. "Dodge City Rockers" made its debut at the Miami Winter Music Conference 2003 to a large crowd reaction. Currently getting played by Quantic, Simply Jeff, and the Vienna Scientists. The "Foundations" EP is a mix of funky breakbeats, reggae influenced downtempo, a Latiny hip hop instrumental and a drum & bass remix of Sister Nancy's "Bam Bam".

Dude Soda brought Jon not to long ago to his Wednesday night Lotass... it was some good times!

He'll be playing a couple of gigs here in town so you'll have lots of opps to see him. This Monday night is gonna go off huge too.

I think I own every FKF release out there and rinse pretty much all of them out on regular basis. Jon was incredible at Lotus and he'll rock it hardcore at Edit.

i wouldn't doubt that something is in the works...

One thing I did notice about Jon though was he looked like the most bored DJ I've ever seen. He had the entire club bouncing and dancing and yet he looked like he was doing his taxes behind the decks...

Really... I looked bored?! Hey, it takes serious concentration to rock it like that. Next time I play I will be jumping and whooping like Donald Glaude!!! CAN YOU FEEL IT? Just kidding. Actually I got really hammered the night before in Seattle. So I was taking it easy on the grooving tip. This time I will do some back flips and Hand springs for real.

Big Ups to everybody!

I am so excited about coming to BC once again. This is my home away from home, and the BC catz have some of the best taste in music, that I have experienced anywhere in the world. You peeps are all about the funk. And you know that is what we are all about!

I have got some serious fresh funkin' tunes to drop. Maybe I can test the sketch version of the Krafty vs FK5 joint. It is far from done, but rock either way.

Monday will be jam filled with breaks, hip hop, funk, and some latin killla beats!

See you there. I can't wait.

And Wood... Big Ups to you. The Wicked Lester vs Fort Knox Five is coming soon. It will be a MONSTER of FUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!! muahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peace out, JonH

Don't make me bust out some of my famous B-Boy moves!

Syke... straight up! This white boy has got MAD funk and soul, but I can't dance for shit!

I am the worst dancer! I am just a straight head bobber. But I will throw my hands in the air and scream "can you feel it" DG stylee.

O.K. on Monday at VODA I will proceed to drink many drinks, thus I will get real loose. And no... I will not get loose on the 12's.

Werd Up!

See you in just over a week.

Peace, JonH
