 Groovefire
(Little Mountain, Release, PhuturePhunk – Boston, MA)
A few somewhat blurry years ago, three house music DJs met
in Newport, Rhode Island, a city without house music. Together,
Todd Hanna, Phil Jakob and Mike Hoska quickly ignited the
area’s clubbing scene with their unique blend of funky
and funky-progressive house, electro and breaks coupled with
their uncompromising creed to turn every room they played
into an absolute party. It wasn’t long before this trio
was doing shows all over the East Coast. And just like that,
Groovefire had been born.
Today, Groovefire has residencies at Rise in Boston, the
Sullivan Room in New York City, and Andalu in Washington,
DC, not to mention an ongoing touring schedule that takes
them throughout the US and Mexico. They frequently play along
side many of the world’s most respected artists, such
as Deep Dish, D:Fuse, Dirty Vegas, Charles Feelgood, Nigel
Richards and Steve Porter. They regularly have mixes featured
on XM Satellite Radio, Proton Radio and other radio shows,
and they annually headline events at the Winter Music Conference
in Miami.
Equally busy as producers, Groovefire has forthcoming releases
on Little Mountain Recordings, Release Records and Unsound
Logic Records, and spend virtually every free minute in the
studio working on a number of new projects.
With this much momentum, it’s no surprise Groovefire
has received some respectable acclaim. The Boston Globe recently
heralded them as “Rising DJ Stars”, while Systems
Recordings artist and superstar DJ D:Fuse has said, “Groovefire
throws down some of the best tag team sets in the nation.
Funky, fun, house, a taste of progressive, and always a kickin’
bassline for the floor.”
With no interest in slowing down, Groovefire continues to
maintain an ambitious touring schedule and a tireless production
agenda. Plus they recently joined forces with a number of
other internationally emerging dance music artists to form
the collective PhuturePhunk. But as anyone who knows them
will attest, Groovefire is hardly all business. Their focus
remains, as it’s always been, on the party.
