BETA Records - Your music matters!

Grand Central's Funky Fresh Few is a floating collective of up to three people. Damon Savage, Glenn Reynolds and Alex.
Funky Fresh Few born out of Blackpool's original graf crew, Imperial Arts, have had a long and colourful history.
Like most of the UK's hip hop community the Funky Fresh Few caught the hip hop bug at an early age. From collecting Streetsound's Electro tapes then moving on through break dancing to graffiti FFF have finally become bona fide hip hop producers.
The boys hooked up with Grand Central via Manchester's Fat City Record shop. The boys were spotted buying hip hop imports by Mark Rae - and after passing him a tape of their early work, Mark invited them to submit more tracks as he was thinking of starting up his own label.
The civilised surroundings of the Fat City was a far cry from the way FFF used to buy their records. Back in 1988 as hip hop reached a peak in the UK, a young Manc named Andy Madhatter used to go to Blackpool, and the surrounding areas, and distribute American imports from the back of a van.
After moving on from break dancing and graffiti, Damon acquired his own decks - and the long journey to where they are now, had begun. Starting with a four track, the lads bought computers, the Akai MCP 60- the favoured drum machine and sequencer of the hip hop community and their most prized possession.
