DJ Manchild, Charlie Bucket and Arks like funk, soul, afro, latin, hip-hop, disco and cheap puns.
Ah yes but just who are these The Gentlemen Of Leisure?
Well sit back and let me learn you up... They are but men. Yet they are men unlike any others, oft separated by 3420kms of continent but drawn together by a love of fine musics, the lost art of moustache wearing and the majesty of expert swordsmanship. You've seen them shirtless, riding stallions in slow-motion on the beach undoubtably off to rescue some hapless, buxom environmentalists. You've heard tale of their exploits fighting hordes of invading Mongols alongside peasant villagers in the deepest Amazon. Sure they have occasion to gad about town quaffing cognac, wearing Blue Stratos cologne and indulging the fairer sex in their charm, wit and sparkling repartee but for all their futuristicness these are no robots. They are men. Men who all the while remain committed to their one true cause - being totally awesome Disc Jockeys.
Such are ways of The Gentlemen Of Leisure. They are men who stand together, alone in the sea of shit that is this interweb thingamy. They are freedom fighters. They are tireless artistes. They are the leaders of free men. They are first among equals. They are equal among firsts. They are each equal part lover and fighter. They are both Man and Beast.
They are the Gentlemen Of Leisure.

DJ Charlie Bucket
Biography
Charlie began his musical career as a drummer playing in jazz and funk bands in Perth in the late 90’s but it was upon returning from a European trip he discovered the art of DJ'ing. With an already eclectic and diverse taste crossing the boundaries of funk, soul, hip hop, house, disco and reggae Charlie began to infuse his existing love of performing with his new-found passion for record collecting.
In late 2003 Charlie was introduced to a fellow funk fanatic and they founded a weekly night at the Leederville Hotel aptly named “The Funk Club”. What started out as a bit of fun and a chance to hear the music they loved soon morphed into club night of legendary status drawing huge crowds and playing host to variety of international performers.
As the chief resident of Funk Club, Charlie Buckets career began to flourish and soon he was touring nationally and he became a regular on the Perth festival circuit. He has held down residencies in too many of Perth's acclaimed venues to even mention.
In 2009 Charlie co-founded a promotional company, "Think Twice", alongside fellow Funk Club founder, friend and long-time collaborator Jimmy "The Lips" Murphy. Together they promote boutique club nights as varied as “Afrodisia”, Russ Dewbury’s “Jazz Rooms” as well as weekly hip-hop and disco parties at The Manor. They are also responsible for bringing out high caliber international acts such as Kool & The Gang, Roy Ayers, Kurtis Blow and Mayer Hawthorne.
For the last 5 years running Charlie has been nominated in the "Best DJ" catergory of the West Australian Music Industry (WAMI) Awards and in 2010 had the honour of been selected as the winner.
Charlie has supported many artists including; Femi Kuti, MF Doom, Roy Ayers, Aloe Blacc, Mayer Hawthorne, Arabian Prince, DJ House Shoes, Kurtis Blow, Basement Jaxx, Groove Armada, Blackalicious, Norman Jay, Mr Scruff, Ghostface Killah, Amp Fiddler, Cut Chemist, De La Soul, Giles Peterson, Fat Freddies Drop, Q-tip, The Pharcyde and DJ Dexter.

Things you'll find here may include vinyl rips, edits, mixes, music hunted from all corners of the globe, tall stories, pictures of dogs dressed as people and some other general nonsense. Dig it.
Wait.. isn't this tantamount to thievery you impossible cads?
All the music here is for promotional purposes only. If you like it, support it and go buy the record dammit. And don't tell on us to Metallica
