Funki Porcini is musician and DJ, James Braddell, from England. His music is a combination of Downtempo, Breakbeat and Jazz, with elements of Hip Hop, Drum and bass, sampling and time-stretched vocals.

He spent ten years in Italy making music for film and television. Thereafter, he returned to England and signed to Ninja Tune independent record label and set up his own studio, ‘The Uterus Goldmine’. He has released four albums to date.

For his latest album, Fast Asleep, Braddell worked with Team Alcohol (aka Rupert Small) to produce innovative interpretations of the music, which are included on the album’s accompanying DVD disc.
