Id say mid-70s til about 1983......about 1984, DX synths, Moog analog synths, and drum machines were replacing real horns, real bass, and real drums on just about every new funk tune turning funk into some bizarre over-polished techno groove music, but some of the most memorable funk songs are from the early 80s, such as
Lakeside - Fantastic Voyage (1980)
Fatback - Backstrokin (1980)
Dazz Band - Let It Whip (1982)
Cameo - Flirt (1982)
Bootsy Collins - Shine-O-Myte/ Ragpopping (1982)
just to name a few
