Dirtybird Records is honoring its San Francisco roots with a new remix package celebrating hometown heroes Hawke and God Within and their timeless classic ‘Acid Funk’, a classic from the Californian Hardkiss camp.
Originally released in 1996, ‘Acid Funk’ is a treasured record of San Francisco’s pre-internet rave era from Hardkiss aliases Hawke (Gavin Hardkiss) and God Within (Scott Hardkiss).
‘Acid Funk’ has grown in notoriety due to its rarity as a secret DJ tool heard in few sets and found only by true crate diggers. Nearly 30 years later, ‘Acid Funk’ still resonates with dancefloors in the Bay Area and beyond, and carries on the legacy of Scott Hardkiss who unexpectedly passed away in 2013.
