Album Notes

Don't mess with the TORPEDO BOYZ!

"…Just the sort of jet-set cool we love. Throw it on at your next shindig and much rump-shaking is sure to ensue" - (Playboy.com)

"….James Brown and The Meters would finally be proud of electronic music's accomplishments" - (BPM Magzine)

"...Funky, kinda crunky Europeans with refreshingly major attitudes.." - (Skope Magazine)

"...weekend bender sort of record that had a bit too much 'fun' and forgot to goto work on Monday..to say this is a good time would be an understatement" - (First Coast News)

"...Torpedo Boyz aren't ashamed to tell you what they're all about: beats and basslines. Working in a funky breaks space" - (Properly Chilled)

The TORPEDO BOYZ ask: "Are You Talking To Me???" Kentastic and Rollin Hand, DJs and producers from Berlin/Tokyo and Paris want to have a straight answer. Stop wasting your time with meaningless club music and try to remember what music is all about.

The TORPEDO BOYZ stand for fat beats, funky breaks and groovy basslines.
While other producers can't do without samples it seems almost unbelievable that the TORPEDO BOYZ are actually playing all of their instruments. Yes, it's all hand-made, folks!

TORPEDO BOYZ' first 12" "Gimme A Bassline!" an infectious, dirty & phat mother of a groove, scored a no. 5 position in the German Club Charts (DCC) while hitting top DJ playlist around the globe in 2004. The same year Kentastic played his first US gigs with Ursula 1000 and
"Are You Talking To Me???"followed into the DCC Top 20.

Bobby Hebb, known as composer and lyricist of the mega hit „Sunny" lend his almost 70-year-old voice to the Boyz for the album track „Trust, Integrity & Pure Love" while Fort Knox Five, top cool & en vogue producers from Washington DC remixed "Are You Talking To Me ???" to an incredible dancefloor action effect.

The list of guest musicians with ODD (Japan), Returner (Cuba), Serge Kool (France), Gil de Gil (Brasil) - just to name a few - can't be more colorful and reflect the boundary-breaking versatility of the TORPEDO BOYZ.

Currently the TORPEDO BOYZ is scoring worldwide with their remix for Killergroove Formula's underground breaks stomper "Keep On Burnin'"!

Meanwhile their album track "Abacus" is featured on the current "Cheerios"-cereal tv ad in the UK and Finland. Not to mention sports fashion maker PUMA putting "Gimme A Bassline!" underneath their new MTV summer fashion trailer.

Yeah buddies, it's time to get the message out and kick ass!
Kentastic: "We'll make them kids shake their groovy thang!"

Now you are taking the Torpedo Boyz seriously?! Trainspotters watch out! Fort Knox Five, the ultra-cool producer team from Washington, recently remixed “Are You Talking To Me ???” and “Start Being Nicer” has been reworked by Pet and The Killergroove Formula. If that’s not real “Headache Music”, we don’t know else
...Get ready North America,..you have been warned
