His breakout hit "Satisfaction," released in the summer of 2003, brought Benassi to international acclaim, reaching number two in the UK singles chart, with the track's success bolstered by the Ministry of Sound's rather raunchy music video of models using power tools. Prior to the release of "Satisfaction," Benassi had already achieved a number one in the UK club charts with his 2001 song "I Feel So Fine," released under the moniker KMC. His debut album, "Hypnotica" was widely received, winning the European Border Breakers award at the end of 2004, selling the most albums outside of his home country of Italy.
As well as his solo releases, Benassi has collaborated with a number of artists also throughout his career. Together with vocalists Paul French and Violeta, who are known collectively as The Biz, and alongside his cousin Alle, they have produced records under the name of Benassi Bros. The project put the spotlight on the two vocalists, as well as other guest singers, releasing the album "Pumphonia" and "…Phobia" to moderate success.
Benny Benassi's main forte is creating quality remixes of his contemporaries, with artists as diverse as OutKast, Goldfrapp and Felix da Housecat all getting the Benassi treatment. Benassi's remix of Public Enemy's classic track "Bring The Noise" was such a success it even won him a Grammy Award for the Best Remix (dance) in 2008. As well as his Grammy Award, Benassi has received many accolades and is consistently voted in the top 100 of DJ mag's list of Top 100 DJs, voted number 27 in 2011.
As well as producing his own music, Benassi also founded the record label, Pump-Kin Music, which focuses on releasing the work lesser known DJs and producers in order to aid their exposure worldwide.
Benassi has lent his production talent to established artists including Madonna, producing three tracks for her "MDNA" album. "Beautiful People" on Chris Brown's 2011 album "Fame" was also produced by Benassi. His 2010 song "Spaceship," featuring Kelis was another successful collaboration, reaching number 18 in the UK Dance singles chart.
Fluttert’s earliest musical excursions began when the Dutchman was studying psychology at Utrecht University, and after discovering deep house music started moonlighting as a DJ in his spare time. The young DJ began honing his skills and following his interests and released a pair of EPs “Zomer” and “Vandaag” in 2012. The latter of which “Vandaag” features the single “I Have a Dream” which samples Martin Luther King Jr.’s infamous speech and got a rerelease by Sony Music in 2014. The EPs brought Fluttert to the attention of a number of electronic house labels and he subsequently signed with the dance agency Soulmax in 2012.
With label backing Bakermat released his “Uitzicht" EP in 2013 which propelled the producer into several dance charts acrosss Europe and brought Fluttert international acclaim. Led by the single of the same name, Fluttert released his fourth EP “Teach Me” in 2014 on the Dirty Soul Music division of Be Yourself Music. Inspired by gospel, soul, blues and jazz, the EP is a melodically inclined sample-laden affair with artists including Shirley Ceasar, and led to a string of high-profile DJ gigs, the producer’s first tour of the U.S. and a slot at the EDM festival Tomorrowland.
One of the undisputed kings of house music, Benny Benassi live is an incredible rave experience you won’t ever forget (or, may not remember at all, depending how good your night is). Either way, whether you're an old-school raver or new to the electronic music wave, you're in for a treat with Benny Benassi. The Italian DJ, having dominated the charts in 2001 with his hit 'I Feel So Fine', and a year later on a global scale with the huuuge track 'Satisfaction', sealed his place as a maestro of floor-fillers. As long-time fans will know, Benassi's live shows are still always packed out, dance-all-night adventures, and an exhilaratingly energetic live experience. His original, fresh blend of heart palpitation-inducing bass and heavy thunderous drums, punctuated by loud electro twang and his shouts out to the crowd, culminate in an epically huge-sounding, ravingly good show.
When I saw Benny Benassi at the Electric Brixton, London, after the crowd warming up (i.e. everyone becoming a huge sweaty dancing mess) to the opening acts, Benassi's hour-long set was the icing on the cake for a venue filled with energetic, glow-stick waving party veterans. The light show and unrelenting dry-ice blasts added to the crazy, electrifying atmosphere, and guaranteed that no one left the venue before the wee hours. If you;re after an excellent party, don't miss Benny Benassi!
C'était tout simplement magique. Petit biscuit est un grand artiste extrêmement talentueux. Sa musique vous transporte dans un autre monde. C'est merveilleux. Je le conseil à quiconque souhaitant découvrir un tout autre univers musicale, propulsé par un jeune artiste très prometteur.
It’s hard enough convincing people that saxophones have a place in pop music in general, and that’s a pretty obvious truth. Imagine how difficult it must have been for 22 year old Dutch born musician and producer Bakermat (Lodewijk Fluttert to his mum) to convince people that saxophones would not only work in house music, but he could bring a saxophonist on tour with him and not be laughed out the building every single night. It must have taken a lot of faith to let him try it out but it would have also taken just one concert to prove that Bakermat had stumbled on an idea with more than a touch of genius to it. It gets even weirder when you realize that Bakermat writes what is ostensibly minimalist techno, and then uses it to send the huge crowds that he commands utterly berserk night after night after night. With his ever present saxophonist by his side. Here’s the thing though, it works. Incredibly well for that matter. His music may not be as obviously energising as some of his peers but the effortless way that Bakermat guides his set through the peaks and troughs that any good DJ set needs could almost be an education in how to make a room full of people go mental. You might seem sceptical for any number of reasons, from the minimalism, to the saxophones. All I can say is, see it for yourself, you will not regret it!
