Hit & Run

Hit & Run was a 3-piece punk band from Portland, Oregon that played music heavily influenced by the melodic punk and technical skatepunk of the '90s. Hit & Run played songs that were fast, tight, hook-laden, aggressive, and melodic at times, punctuated with group shouts, powerful guitars, rapid-fire drum patterns and scrabbling bass lines. Lyrically, Hit & Run pushed toward the progressive, personal and political, but without losing a sense of humor.

What words can describe the one and only DJ Funk? Pioneer? Party Rocker? Ghetto House Icon? Let's start at the beginning, DJ Funk grew up on the musically rich West Side of Chicago where he was exposed at an early age to Chicago, New York & Detroit dance music. Developing from his early influences he started DJing out when he was just a teenager at house parties, school dances, and neighborhood clubs; selling mix tapes in the hood with his former crew "do or die" to make ends meet.
