The Worlds Grooviest Live Disco Show is being revamped to create a new thematic experience!
17/06/2026
Thematic Productions Co is proud to announce that The Funky Hippeez Show, The Funky Hippeez - The World's Grooviest Live Disco Show are dropping something massive for the 4th of July weekend, and you can get early access right now! 💥
We are officially bypassing corporate streaming sites and taking our music direct to you, the fans. To celebrate true artistic freedom and independent expression, we’ve just launched an exclusive $10 Digital Double-Pack on our indiegogo campaign page for THe HouSeWiNe featuring TWO premier tracks:
🎵 "I LIKE IT (Keep Rollin')" [Pre-Release Access]: A high-energy 70s Disco remake of our 2004 International Songwriting Contest winner! Our drummer Nyle Girgis tracked every single instrument himself, building a brilliant wall of sound around the original classic vocal tracks we cut at his home studio for our electronica group Staaarchild. It's a deeply personal track about freedom of expression, mind expansion, and that unforgettable first experience rollin'. Get it weeks before the July 3rd Bandcamp drop!
🎵 "FOXY MAMMA" [The Classic Hit]: The 2006 anthem that started it all, featuring 3 major Hollywood placements (Focus Features' Something New, Barbershop 2, and ABC's Desperate Housewives).
The crowds absolutely went wild for the new track at our City of Palm Desert Concert in the Park, and we can't wait to play it live next at the City of La Cañada Flintridge Concert in the Park this Sunday, June 21st, 6-8PM!
THe HouSeWiNe Indiegogo campaign officially wraps up this Friday, June 19th, so time is running out. Support independent music, bypass the algorithms, and claim your high-quality digital download bundle today!

Why we are bypassing mainstream streaming platforms, reclaiming our intellectual property, and proving that LIVE MUSIC MATTERS. 🧵⬇️
In 1995, The Funk Hippeez established a weekly Friday night residency at the iconic West End in Santa Monica. The nights became so consistently packed that major record label A&R executives began flooding our shows, asking a defining question: Do you play original music, or just covers?
That was the catalyst. My co-writer/original drummer Nyle Girgis and I set out to see if we could capture that lightning in a bottle and produce original disco music for the group. The result was our first original track, "FOXY MAMMA" (2006), which went on to secure major Hollywood sync placements in the Focus Film' Something New, the Barbershop 2 radio trailers, and Desperate Housewives Promotional DVD.
Now, two decades later, that creative brotherhood has re-ignited for only our second original song in a 20-year span. For us, it has always been about quality over quantity.
We have just finalized the 30-second teaser for this rare independent production: "I LIKE IT (Keep Rollin)"—a complete, modern disco reimagining of an original track we built back in 2004 for our Electronica project, Staaarchild. When we tracked the vocals, Nyle had me lean heavily into a Michael Jackson vocal styling. With the current global resurgence of interest in MJ's legacy, the sonic timing couldn't be better.
But this release represents something much larger than a single song. It is the cornerstone of our movement: LIVE MUSIC MATTERS.
THE REVIVAL OF DISCO & FUNK 🕺🏽✨
Mainstream music has largely traded raw musicianship for algorithms and programmed loops. With THE FUNKY HIPPEEZ SHOW, we are actively bringing back the golden era of live, organic 70s and 80s Disco & Funk.
THE BANDCAMP REVOLUTION 🎚️
Because we believe in the value of the independent craft, we are completely bypassing mainstream corporate streaming platforms.
Starting with this track, all future releases will live exclusively on our official Bandcamp page https://thefunkyhippeezshow.bandcamp.com/ and at our live performances.
If you value independent artistry, true musical heritage, and the preservation of real live performance, you support it directly at the source. No algorithms, no corporate streaming structures—just premium music for true fans.
We are world-premiering the groove live this Thursday, May 21st, for the Palm Desert Concert Series.
Check out the teaser below, and let's get back to valuing real music. 🎥👇🏽
