DJ Tarek: A Master of Ceremonies with a Unique Feel

Behind the decks of Greatest Hits, you’ll find a pillar of the French funk scene: DJ Tarek From Paris.

After several decades of passion, fiery mixes and relentless digging, Tarek is much more than a DJ: he’s a conveyor of musical memory, a groove archaeologist and a classic‑style sound craftsman.

His approach?
Sincerity, warmth and precision.

Each set is crafted like a cross‑decade journey: a sonic trip across continents, forgotten scenes and timeless hits.

With him, there’s no automatic playlist or prefab set: everything is hand‑picked, often taken from his personal collection of vinyls and collector’s 12‑inch records.


A Rich and Lively Programme

For six hours, Greatest Hits rolls out the red carpet for the best funk, soul, disco and boogie has to offer. You’ll hear:

  • Timeless classics: Carol Douglas, Kool & The Gang, Chic, Lew Kirton, James Brown…

  • Forgotten gems: independent bands, obscure labels, rare pressings…

  • Exclusive remixes and edits, often signed by DJ Tarek himself

  • Special themes: Brazilian funk, 80s slow jams, Motown specials, ladies of disco, etc.

  • And occasionally some hip‑hop or house surprises, as a nod to funk’s sampled legacy

Each hour has its own mood, rhythm and story.
The show often starts smooth, builds gradually in intensity, and ends in a full‑on dancefloor finale.

Groove never stops, and the transitions are so fluid you’ll want to stay glued in until 6:00 PM.


A Long Format, for Total Immersion

With its 6‑hour runtime, Greatest Hits stands out for its generous format.

No frustration, no tracks cut off too early. DJ Tarek takes the time to set the mood, let the tracks breathe, and let the listener groove on long versions, instrumental intros and irresistible breaks.

This long format also allows him to balance pure dance moments with more contemplative or narrative sections, where he drops anecdotes, dedications or rare tracks from deep in the crate.

In short, it’s a complete journey.


A Loyal, Cross‑Generational Community

Over the years, Greatest Hits has brought together a real tribe of loyal listeners.

Every Saturday they’re there, headphones on or speakers blasting, sharing reactions, memories and favorites in real time.

Many interact via the chat, social media or voice messages.

What stands out is the diversity of the audience: long‑time funk fans, underground DJs, curious newcomers, dancers, musicians—and even entire families listening together.

Funk brings people together, and Greatest Hits proves it every week.


A Hub for Vinyl Headz and Diggers

The show is also a reference point for diggers, vinyl lovers and collectors.

DJ Tarek loves sharing the stories behind his records: where he found them, in what condition, which versions he prefers, etc.

He often gives tips on gear, digitizing vinyl or attending record fairs and specialty events.

Some tracks played on Greatest Hits don’t even exist on streaming platforms.
They come from ultra‑rare pressings, forgotten B‑sides, or promo 12‑inch records never reissued.

That’s the show’s real strength: offering a listening experience you won’t find anywhere else.


Why Listen to Greatest Hits on RADIO FUNK?

  • Because the sound is broadcast in 320kbps, no cuts, no ads.

  • Because the programming is authentic, far from algorithm‑driven playlists.

  • Because DJ Tarek knows his stuff and shares it with passion.

  • Because groove is good for both mood and body.

  • And because… honestly, what would you rather do a Saturday afternoon?


In short

Greatest Hits on RADIO FUNK is more than a radio show.
It’s a joyful, generous musical parenthesis, a bubble of pure groove served by a DJ who truly loves his craft.

It’s also a human rendez‑vous, sincere and heartfelt, where you take the time to rediscover funk’s treasures and celebrate the power of analog sound.

So if your body still vibrates to the sound of slapped basslines, vintage synth pads and soulful voices from another era,
tune in every Saturday from noon.

And stay until 6:00 PM.

The funk never sleeps.
And with DJ Tarek, it will never let you down.

🎧 Listen live every Saturday from noon to 6:00 PM
