Funkerman is the alias of Ardie van Beek (born 1975 in Breda), a DJ, producer and co-founder of Flamingo Recordings, the label he launched in 2004 alongside Fedde Le Grand and Raf Jansen. His breakthrough came with the house classic 'Speed Up' (2007), which charted internationally and earned him a deal with UK label Defected Records. Over the following two decades he built a wide-ranging discography and toured globally, moving across deep house, tech house and beyond.
Funkerman released the single 'Keep Up' together with Washington D.C.-based producer Sama, a contemporary rework of his club classic 'Speed Up' from 2007.
Funkerman released the EP 'To the Moon & Back', featuring new tracks such as 'De La Luz', 'Do You Want to Get Down' and 'Whip It'.
