High-energy disco house built on heavy funk samples and thick, filtered basslines. Pure sunshine for dancefloors and summer afternoon parties.
J Paul Getto delivers a masterclass in the 'jackin house' aesthetic, where the soul of 70s disco meets the muscular precision of modern club production. The music is characterized by its relentless groove, often built around expertly sliced samples of vintage brass, shimmering strings, and soulful vocal hooks that feel instantly familiar yet entirely fresh. It is bright, unapologetically fun, and designed specifically to keep a room moving without ever losing its organic, funky heart.
What sets him apart is the sheer density of his grooves. While many house producers lean into minimalism, Tony Saputo embraces a maximalist 'wall of funk' approach. He utilizes heavy filtering techniques - the classic 'French Touch' style - to build tension before exploding into high-fidelity, bass-heavy payoffs. The percussion is always crisp and swinging, avoiding the robotic stiffness of more clinical electronic genres in favor of a human, 'live' feel that honors his Italian-American roots and Boston house lineage.
Start with the 'Fogbank Collection' or the high-octane '3000' to understand his ability to flip a sample. These tracks serve as the perfect gateway into his world of sun-drenched, filter-heavy house music that works just as well for a gym session as it does for a peak-hour DJ set.
