D'Sound

Funk
Funk

D'Sound is a Funk act. Their sound grew out of Prince, Janet Jackson, Kelis, Mathias Eick and Shakatak. Those roots explain a lot about how D'Sound arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Brand New Heavies, M2M, Brooklyn Funk Essentials, Galliano and Corduroy, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sitti Navarro and Sitti, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 32 connections around D'Sound, reaching back through Prince and forward to Sitti Navarro.
