Funkservice International's music has been labeled "jazzy," "sophisticated,"
"electro," "'60s retro," and "groovy," among other things, and has
been compared to such artists as Massive Attack, Gotan Project, and Koop.
The group's characteristic yet uncategorizable sound stems directly from the curiosity of its
creators, Skellefteå-based producer team
Adil Fadi and
Jonas Persson. In 2001 the Moroccan/Swedish duo combined their previous experiences
to create an exciting hybrid of different musical styles, and the result of their eclectic,
open-minded approach--including the utilization of many different musicians on stage--was the
distinctive flavor of Funkservice International.
What the press is saying...
"...a relaxing cocktail of influences that is not afraid to sit on the
shelf next to Tosca or Fila Brazilia."
X Press Magazine (Sweden)
"Buckle up for your flight into paradise. No need for a sickie bag. The debut disc from
Swedish-based writers and producers Adil Fadi and Jonas Persson is full of soothing beats
and soulful voices that would help even the queasiest passenger enjoy flight. After several
solo efforts, the boys combined their talents in 2001 to blend jazz, lounge and soul into a
disc worthy of the spot next to your favorite chillout discs (think Tosca or Thievery
Corporation)...."
