Funkytown was released in 1979 by the American disco group Lipps Inc and written by Steven Greenberg. It became a number one hit in 1980 and one of the last major disco anthems before the genre faded from the charts. The song has since appeared in films, adverts and games, keeping its bassline familiar across generations. Online, short clips of the intro and hook spread as a shorthand for instant groove, often paired with confident walks, dance edits and retro themed memes.

The iconic disco groove from Funkytown by Lipps Inc, a funky bassline and synth hook people use for retro dance scenes and upbeat meme edits.
This clip captures the instantly recognisable opening groove of Funkytown, built around a tight funk bassline, bright synth stabs and a steady four on the floor disco beat. The vocal hook is playful and repetitive, giving the whole excerpt a bouncy, feel good energy that feels both retro and timeless. Listeners associate it with dancing, celebration and carefree confidence, which is why a few seconds are enough to change the mood of a scene. It turns an ordinary moment into something groovy and exaggerated, like the characters have suddenly walked into a 1970s dancefloor.
