Terry "Tee" Alford, event promoter, remixer, and producer has been spinning music for over 30 years. He became interested in embellishing music in the seventies and eighties while listening to some of New York’s radio mixers like Shep Pettibone, Timmy Regisford, Danny Krivit, Tony Humphries & hosts like Frankie Crocker. By the time Tee arrived as a Temple University freshman in 1984, he had already developed a good ear for rhythm & music. Quickly seeing the need to diversify and expand the small soul music dance community in Philadelphia, he injected his own soul influences into the local college scene along with friend & fellow engineer, James Turner.

Although Tee's sound was not well received at first, Philly & the surrounding region would soon take notice of the enthusiasm at the well attended dance concerts he co-produced both on and off campus. His artist showcases from 1985-1988 began to influence the party culture by impacting clothing fashion, street art, retail music sales, and even urban radio. Major festival productions during Philadelphia's annual public events like the Pan-Hellenic Greek Summer Picnic in Fairmount Park and Pennsylvania Relays (1986-1992), provided a larger platform to showcase his event planning & DJ talents.

In 1988, Tee auditioned for the late, Eric Coston, to join the lineup on Philly's first "House music" urban radio mix show on WDAS-FM. That very same year, he began his first solo club residency on Sunday nights at Club Impulse with station mate, Kenny Ebo. The rest is history. Tee has since built his own name with major radio station residences and appearances at Philly's legendary clubs & dance parties such as Sundae, Don't Fake the Funk, Shampoo, NYC's Cielo & Club Shelter, Eighteenth Street Lounge in Wash, DC, plus tour dates throughout Europe & Canada.

Having been long considered a legendary pioneer for popularizing the soulful house music dance format in Philadelphia, Tee's vision undoubtedly paved the way for a new generation of dance music producers, DJs & Promoters in the city. Several recognizable Philly & international music taste makers, were once avid regulars at Tee's early soul music performances in the 80s & 90s. His noteworthy music/remix productions & distributed releases under the Funky People Records® label, Joint Ventures Group & the legendary Blaze Productions can still be heard on playlists to this day.

Balancing the challenges of a professional technology career, multiple business endeavors, and family, things have come full circle for the Funky People®, LLC brand in recent years. In January 2016, the weekly mix show, Funky People® RADIO LIVE, heard on WURD-AM 900 radio in Philadelphia turns 3 years old. The FP media presence has grown by leaps and bounds with the radio show's continued popularity. There's certainly no intentions to slow down now after the latest Funky People remix of Temika Moore's "Every Word" was just released on Josh Milan's Honeycomb Music imprint. Expect to hear more soul music sounds on the airwaves, see more creative lifestyle and entertainment activities for the FP massive, along with new studio recording projects to be released on the Funky People® label in 2016!
