Funk Service International - Life and Flowers

Imported from Sweden by Listening Post Music

Launched in 2001 by the Skellefteå-based producer team Adil Fadi & Jonas Persson, Funkservice International acts as a hub for modern music based on Nu Jazz, Nu Soul and World Music.

Adil, from Casablanca, Morocco, and Jonas, from Skellefteå, Sweden, had both spent a great deal of time doing solo work with various styles of music. In 2001 they decided to combine their skills and experiences to create an exciting hybrid between different musical styles.

The result became an eclectic and groovy blend of Jazz, Lounge, Soul and World Music. The fusion of different musical influences and cultures is the basic idea behind Funkservice International - 21:st century music with a relaxed attitude.

THE SOUND SYSTEM

In resemblance to acts like Blacknuss and Massive Attack, Funkservice International consists of a main core together with a collective of musicians. Bass players, guitarists, vocalists etc. join whenever needed. At live performances, Funkservice International transforms into a Sound System with up to 12 people included.
