Funky Family

Here is the YouTube channel of Polish father and DJ Jurek Jurkowski—he has taught his son to enjoy good funky house music and use DJ turntables from an early age. Long before all the DJs in the world began streaming during lockdown, Jurek was recording and posting his hour-long house selections from his own living room. The usual situation: an 8-year-old boy puts on records, adjusts the beat, and twists the frequencies; he knows what moments in the track should be highlighted. Meanwhile, his dad sits in the background at his laptop and shakes his head to the rhythm. In other videos, in the same setting, guests gather at a miniature table and the classics of funky house are alternately put by the son, then the father, then the holy spirit (one of the guests). Interesting things are happening in Wroclaw. As someone wrote in the comments: “More interesting than in Boiler Room.”
