GUSHI & RAFFUNK

Music Production & Live Performances

In 2005, GUSHI & RAFFUNK started their own project producing original music for “Amnesia Ibiza Chillout Sessions” and “Fashion TV” compilations.

Their latest productions record the releases of “Eyes”, “Travel EP”, “Sound Of You – The Remixes EP”, “Re ection”, “Deep House Flavours” and “Soundtracks” – all works having been released by international labels and with something in common: tell their sensibility towards life itself.

LIVE PERFORMANCES / DJ SET
Their repertoire at Live Performances offers original tracks combined with revisited versions arranged by Gushi & Raffunk in downtempo-chill, midtempo and deep house style. Their exhibitions are adaptable to multiple situations such as live shows, fashion events, product launches, private parties, receptions, chilling spaces and every other situation where style and pro ciency are required. They’re ideal for fresh, intimate and comfortable ambiances.
Their Live DJ Set is mainly based on Midtempo and Deep House atmospheres combined with live vocal intervention, also adaptable to a more up-tempo club format.
Both of the situations can be proposed separately or in a whole format, including DJ Set + Live Performance. This “package” may vary depending on the needs of the venue.
