dubway, we the people request a name change

i know its a petty matter, and music is music blah blah blah but i think its a bit strange that this subforum is just called "funky". so if you could find it in your heart to vote on a new name, that would be great. and maybe the powers that be will consider granting our wishes in changing the name of our meeting place where we discuss all that is house.

cheers

I think it should be called UK Garage. Unfortunately that isn't one of the choices...

I voted for Rare Grooves just for a laff, but it really should be house
what is of value and wisdom for one man seems nonsense to another.

to be fair all that needs to be done is swap the funky and house around, so it says

House
funky, deep, other


or something rather than what it currently is:

Funky
House
what is of value and wisdom for one man seems nonsense to another.

this, or gabber, keeps the trolls @ bay. or even just name it House, just house, not the way it is...it looks like "funky house" which it isnt.

I have to agree with this. Leave it as Funky, I actually like the genre name
