name: funky49 aka: Gianni Cache, JohnPaulJonez, bloodclotfunk origin: 609 area code, new jersey, usa location: 813 area code, florida, usa Steven Rush aka funky49 is all over the map like Carmen Sandiego. Let's focus on him being a producer and a rapper. He's made music with two boomboxes and a cheap sampling keyboard, with Amiga MOD trackers, pirated software and whatever it took to get the idea in his brain to your ears. Currently he has a home studio with professional gear and Pro Tools. Best known for his Beastie Boys remixes and rapping, funky49's rhymes found a home in the nerdcore rap movement. Since joining the nerdcore community, he has performed live coast-to-coast opening for acts such as mc chris, performed at Nerdapalooza SE 07 & 08, been interviewed by college radio stations & in podcasts and released his first album, Starblazer.
funky49 credits electronic music classes at the Unversity of South Florida, old school hip-hop and his circle of friends for influencing his sound. funky49's greatest influence has been from his friend Redvoid, producer & DJ of Florida Breaks and electro-house music.

Are you interested in what gear I use to make sweet jams? Here's the short list: PC, ProTools LE, Reason, Mackie mixer, EV Sentry 100EL monitors, Korg MS2000, Shure & Audio Technica microphones. Some of my fav pieces of gear in the past have been Roland SP-202 sampler (dirty filters, fun buttons to hit to trigger samples) and Glen's Roland JX-3P (analog synth under digital control I think). I built a new pc to make music with! Wolfdale CPU, ASUS mobo, 2GB Corsair Dominator memory, Antec Sonata III case, 1TB of Seagate Barracuda hard drives, Sythe 120mm fan, MSI/ATI video card. All for $710 before rebates. It replaces a P4 2.9ghz, Gigabyte mobo, 1GB generic memory, blah blah pc of oldness.
