A lifelong journey from orchestral percussion to funkadelic House, blending precision, grit, and global rhythm.
The Classical Cadence: A Life in Rhythm
For Greg McCunn, rhythm has always been more than a sequence of beats. It has been a language. His earliest musical memories are grounded in classical percussion, where timpani, snare, and mallet instruments demanded precision and discipline. In orchestras, Greg learned to speak through silence, to build tension with a single strike, and to create emotion without words.
This early training became the foundation of his craft. Yet even at that stage, there was an undercurrent of restlessness. Classical performance shaped his technical mastery, but the confines of tradition left him searching for something more immediate, more alive. That search would eventually take him far beyond the concert hall.
Brixton Nights: The Spark of Electronic Discovery
The breakthrough came during a house party in Brixton, London. The setting was raw and unpolished, the air charged with basslines and the energy of UK House and Drum and Bass. The music did not merely play—it consumed the room. People moved together in rhythm, not as individuals but as a single collective force.
For Greg, this was not just another musical experience. It was an awakening. The communal energy, the way sound transformed into movement and belonging, revealed a new dimension of what rhythm could mean. The moment became a turning point, one that pulled him toward electronic music production and away from the strict boundaries of classical tradition.
Touring the World: Rockabilly Rhythms and Beyond
Greg’s musical path did not move in a straight line. Before fully embracing electronic production, he spent years touring internationally with Rockabilly bands. This unexpected chapter added grit, energy, and a storytelling edge to his already diverse musical vocabulary.
Performing across continents—from Berlin’s intimate jazz clubs to expansive outdoor festivals in Australia—Greg absorbed global influences that would later surface in his own work. Touring was not only about performance. It was about living music daily, experiencing how sound resonated differently across cultures, and learning how audiences connect in unique ways.
These experiences gave him a deep appreciation for adaptability. Each performance space, each city, each collaboration left its mark. Rather than confining his sound, these chapters expanded it, layering fresh textures onto the foundation of his rhythm.
The Fusion: Classical Precision Meets Club Culture
What makes 303GREG distinct is not a single influence but the integration of many. His current House and EDM productions reflect this blend in every detail. The meticulous timing of classical percussion can be felt in his builds and transitions. The raw, communal power of Brixton nights lives within his basslines. The narrative weight of Rockabilly tours can be heard in the emotional arcs of his tracks.
This synthesis is intentional. Rather than chasing trends, Greg draws from a lifetime of musical experiences to create a sound that feels structured yet organic. The result is music that makes listeners move while also resonating with a deeper sense of story.
A Fresh Funkadelic Pulse
As 303GREG, Greg has positioned himself within the House genre in a way that feels genuinely fresh. His music carries a funkadelic pulse designed to draw people into rhythm, not through imitation but through originality. For audiences across streaming platforms, this freshness is what sets him apart.
His growing presence on SoundCloud, Spotify, YouTube, and Bandcamp has allowed his tracks to reach diverse listeners who respond to both the technical precision and the human emotion embedded in his sound. It is this balance—between structure and spontaneity—that defines his difference in a crowded genre.
More Than Music: A Living Narrative
303GREG is not only a musical identity but a living narrative. Each track functions as both a reflection of the past and a leap toward something new. The orchestral training, the Brixton awakening, the years spent touring with Rockabilly groups—all of it converges into music that feels alive.
This narrative dimension is what connects audiences to his work. Listeners do not just hear rhythm; they experience a story told through sound. For Greg, that story is not finished. Each release marks another chapter in an evolving exploration of what music can be.

From orchestral cadences to underground clubs, from Rockabilly tours to EDM production, Greg McCunn has lived a career defined by rhythm and reinvention. Under the name 303GREG, he continues to explore, blending classical mastery, global experiences, and the unrelenting energy of House.
