LIVE MIX: DJ CMAN : Dancefloor Jazz, Bootleg Funk & Hip Hop Block Party Vibes live at SOUL OF SYDNEY 13th B’DAY

DJ CMAN’s Funk-Soul Odyssey: Live from Soul of Sydney’s 13th Birthday Party

Sydney’s Jazz Funk Bootleg Don, DJ CMAN, brought the house down at Soul of Sydney’s 13th Birthday Party with a mix that’s pure magic. One of our original selectors since 2009, CMAN doesn’t just play music—he takes you on a journey.

Recorded live, this 1-hour set is a masterclass in groove: funky basslines, soulful vocals, jazzy hip-hop flips, and bootlegs so good they’ll have you dancing in your living room. It’s the perfect soundtrack to celebrate everything that makes Soul of Sydney an iconic movement in music culture.

For podcast episode #418, CMAN digs deep into his bag of edits, remixes, and party jams to deliver the ultimate vibe creator’s set. This isn’t just a mix—it’s a time capsule of funk, soul, jazz, and hip-hop energy.
