Having Just remixed their French brothers Mustard Pimp on Dim Mak and GTRONIC on Lektroluv with numerous weeks in Beatport charts, remixing Benny Banasi (Maybb) on Kitsune and being included on a Sony BMG compilation alongside Crookers, it’s no surprise that Italian duo Blatta & Inesha were slated by XLR8R magazine as “ Among 6 of Italy’s top party rockers.” including Crookers, Bloody Beetroots, Congorock…
Their dirty suspicious Techno Electro has been blasted around the world. Whether its them headlining massive tastemaker festivals like Marsatac in France this fall playing for 10,000 people alongside Mr. Oizo and Erol Alkan or at super clubs like Womb in Tokyo or top tier DJ’s dropping their tracks, topping industry charts, or tuning in to hear repetitive plays on BBC radio 1 shows Kissy Sell Out and Annie Nightingale or heavy rotation on DeeJay TV.
Having toured North America for two 5 week tours in the last year hitting major parties/cities like Dim Mak tuesday, Faktory in Toronto, D.C. with Aoki, Chicago, San Fran, NYC Trouble & Bass, Beauty Bar Austin, and essential clubs/cities on the Euro circuit like Social club Paris, Fabric London, Fuse Brussels, Magnolia Milan, B&I are poised to take their project and tour to the next level.
With Inesha’s history in turntablism and hip hop and Blatta’s in Rock and roll melting together to create releases on Kitsune, Mental Groove, Dim Mak, Lektroluv, Warehouse, Crux etc… have set them heavily in the techno / electro scene.
Recently the boys hailing from Sicily have signed to release an original track featuring Edu K to Mental Groove as part of a hand picked Don Rimini compilation, after receiving a 5 star review in DJ Mag “ No doubt on heavy rotation by Boys Noize…” Solidifying B&I’s propensity for techno they collaborated on a track with Calvertron, which has won a spot on Lee Mortimer's new Warehouse compilation that includes tracks also by Rico Tubbs, and Laid Back Luke.
B&I’s worldwide following will be happy to know that in lue of consecutive European tours, March 2011 will see a 4 week Australian tour, into and Japanese and Korean tour and then again for another North American summer tour. Splatters of sweat, chaos and anything from techno to electro to dubstep to 70’s Italo disco are the ingredients for their shows and reason for their constantly growing popularity and overwhelming fan base.
Hard Electro and techno is not the only place they are known for their talents. They have been commissioned to remix top indie pop acts such as Pony Pony Run Run, Telepopmusik and Axel and the Farmers which all have enjoyed time on Hypem's #1 favorited tracks. As well as a recent team up with Italy’s budding hip hop superstars Videomind. B&I created a remix that will be the bands first single to drop for the new album while Videomind dropped some rare lyrics for a B&I original. With a week of video production complete the track is set with MTV Italy to be on regular rotation.
