Cantaloop’s mission is to provide 800% of iFunk with a satisfaction guarantee! This can be delivered to an intimate crowd or to the masses and is fronted by the iFunk messenger Dannie Dee with his trussed iFunk doctors 100C on guitar, Paulo De'Wooton on bass. No band is absolute without the engine and Cantaloop have a F1 Groove Machine with The Beef on drums. Last but we know you’ll love 'em The Horns of Plenty - these Monsters of the Horn just throw down Phat dollops of Funkelicious Brass and as all the elements combust The Cantaloop Brotherhood always let the people know “iFunk therefore I am.” Cantaloop are a true urban Funk outfit.

In 2005, the band completed a tour of 25 dates in Switzerland and Europe. The band also performed an unstoppable amount of shows in the UK (their home territory). Cantaloop have supported several reputable, established acts.

Cantaloop will look to release its third album I.C.H.I.L.E. in 2008, the band are currently finishing the album with Gavin Monaghan (The Editors, Nizlopi, Carina Round). The band recently circulated a coveted few white label remixes featuring their stellar track "Real Thing" remixed by The Fun Lovin' Criminals. Also look out for their signature live tune "Propa".

Cantaloop played at various festivals and legendary venues including Glastonbury Festival (The Jazz World and Avalon stages), Montreux Jazz Festival (Montreux), Blue Balls Festival (Luzern), Moods (Zurich), The Flechedor (Paris), Paradiso (Amsterdam), Larmer Tree Festival (UK), Vicar Street (Dublin), Barrowlands (Glasgow), Ashton Court (Bristol), Jazz Café (London), Cargo (London), Carling Academy (Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol), Rock City (Nottingham).

"Thats a great sound for a British band to be making !" - Tom Robinson, BBC6 Music

"Blending funk with hip-hop they create a real party album in the great tradition of artists like Sly And The Family Stone and De La Soul." - The Beats Surrender

"If you're after a Hip Hop album with out all the bullshit that comes with that scene then maybe you ought to check these guys out. - Street Voice

"I.C.H.I.L.E. is a breathtaking album of mature, modern music that's hard to pigeonhole but easy to absorb - loads to admire and nothing to fault. Distinctly hip-hop/rap oriented but with massive jazzy undercurrents, blissfully soulful vocalisation and a bucket-full of pop sensibility, Cantaloop have contrived to come up with a style that's fresh, bright and easy on the ear." - Toxic Pete

"In The Frame is a head nodding, foot tapping soulful hip-hop track that shows you don't have to stick to a guns, girls and diamonds lyric to make a quality track." - thebeatsurrender.co.uk

"If this were summer I would have this blasting out of my speakers as I crash out in a field of green." - the-rocker.co.uk

"In The Frame, showcases Cantaloop's vibrant mix of pop, soul, funk and hip-hop, the track features a wonderfully soulful and smooth deliver by frontman Dannie Dee, whilst the rest of the band create a funky backing track complete with bouncy elastic basslines and obligatory record deck abuse." - Rhythm & Booze

"Funk n Hip Hop at it's best. 8.5/10" - myspace.com/streetvoice

"In The Frame is a crackin' piece of 'pop' music just for pop's sake!" - toxicpete.co.uk

"Bounce, bounce, bounce - a tune destined for greater things, like a playful Lemar rocking out with RHCP, a summer anthem of christ-like proportions" - subba-cultcha.co.uk
