LATEST NEWS!
❤️❤️ THANK YOU!!! ❤️❤️
To everyone who generously decided to back our vinyl project! I hope you all have a great summer!
While the vinyl master sounds REALLY great and artwork is just about finished, unfortunately it seems we will not reach our goal to fund the whole vinyl pressing, and as perhaps most of you know, Kickstarter employs an "all or nothing"-principle, meaning that we get absolutely nothing if we don't reach the SEK 35.000! So, this means that the Kickstarter campaign sadly will not help us this time!
Fortunately, most of our backers have decided to support us separately. If there are anyone out there who would like to support us but missed the Kickstarter-campaign, please e-mail our label at: domusicrecords@gmail.com with your full physical adress, e-mail and full name and we will find a suitable pledge! Supporters can expect signed vinyls to be shipped to you in early October! Street date is November 29!

TBW! On this day 5 years ago, our third album ”Voodooland” peaked at #1 on the US jazz charts and remained at the top for three weeks! This led to all the amazing collabs with US promoters, managers, producers and artists, resulting in a US tour! ❤️ 😎 #gratefulMORE GREAT NEWS! Beat Funktion's 'Voodooland' continues its success by hitting #1 again the 2nd week in a row on the CMJ Jazz Chart, outconquering major artists and labels. It also stays a 3rd week on the Canadian Earshot Chart among Canadian talent!

Beat Funktion, ett band med rötter i Uppsala/Stockholm som under 10 års tid nått ut internationellt med sin musik, spelar en egensinnig, dansvänlig mix av jazz, funk, soul, disco och afrobeat och fick redan 2013 uppmärksamhet för sin musik både i Japan och USA. Bandet lyckades sommaren 2014 bli det första svenska jazzbandet i historien att toppa jazzradiolistorna i USA och Kanada i flera veckor med albumet "Voodooland". De efterföljande albumen "Olympus" och "Green Man" klättrade lika högt med strålande recensioner, USA- och Europaturnéer, gränsöverskridande artistsamarbeten med namn som t ex Damon Elliott, Alicia Olatuja, Jasmine Kara och Viktoria Tolstoy som följd. Beat Funktion jobbar nu med sitt 7:e album "Roots" och kommer att presentera deras nya musik samt hits från deras tidigare album på The JazzPool. Live är Beat Funktion en medryckande upplevelse, så förvänta er en hårdsvängande dansgolvspuls i 70-tals anda med sprakande jazzimprovisationer som gör det svårt att sitta still. Denna konsert är enda chansen att höra dem live i Sverige innan oktober, och sångerskan Ester Lahti, trumpetaren Jonne Bentlöv och slagverkaren Tiago Loei gör gästinhopp denna kväll! Välkomna till en tunggungande partyjazzkväll för både spisare, diggare och dansare!
The JazzPool - en ny fräsch live-scen för levande jazzmusik mitt i centrala Uppsala inuti Interpools vidsträckta och jazzdoftande lokaler. Uppsala-rotade smågrupper och storband inom jazz och jazzrelaterade genrer bjuder på konsert och/eller jam sessions varje tisdag. Det är fri entré men gäster förväntas lämna en orkesterslant på valfritt belopp, minst 50kr, för att stödja livemusiken! Swish eller kontant. Interpool står för en fin mat- och dryckesmeny att avnjuta musiken till. Konserttid i två set mellan 19.00-21.00. Dörrarna öppnar kl 18.30. The JazzPool är ett samarrangemang mellan Interpool och Do Music Records. Ljud sponsrat av Jan Algander samt Wharfedale Pro.
FRIENDS! 😎 Now on Tuesday 26th of March at 7pm we do our only gig in our hometown Uppsala this year! Guest artists Ester Lahti on vocals, Jonne Bentlöv on trumpet and Tiago Loei on percussion will perform with the band: Olle Thunström on sax, Johan Öijen on guitar, Pal Johnson on bass, Daniel Lantz on keys and Jon Eriksson on drums! At 7pm at the JazzPool (Interpool, Svartbäcksgatan 11, Uppsala)! Free admission but a minimum band fee of 50 kr. See you there! 🕺💃 Link to event in comments! (Photo: Palli Kristmundsson)
