It hasn´t been two years since the group, LA KINKY BEAT, was created and their name is already synonomous with music “made in Barcelona”. Their music is legendary from Granada to Berlin, from Roma to Amsterdam.

Thefirst adventures of the musicians with such groups as Trimelón, Jaleo Real, Radio Bemba, etc., provided the experience and friendships that led to their first concerts on the Peninsula, as well as their first escapades in Europe. After triumphing in the demo tape contest sponsored by the prestigious Web site Radio Chango, and still without a release on the market, they toured with concerts in Germany, France, Holand, Italy, Switzerland and Belgium, which consolidated their powerful, fresh and dynamic sound, impregnated with the best of contemporary party music.

Towards the end of 2004 they published “Made in Barna” with the new label Kasba Music, a young independent music venture in Barcelona. This first release continues to receive accolades in the media and has been presented live in concert across Spain and Europe. Among the numerous concerts and festivals in which they have participated, their performance at three in the latest Viñarock Festival in front of fifteen thousand fans dancing to the adrenaline pumping pulse of La Kinky Beat is standout. Now they are releasing their new CD: “RMX”, Kasba Music 05: eleven remixed themes, one unpublished song and a video clip. This is a personalized revision of the “Kinky Style”, with a modern techno emphasis.

This second album is surprising for its immediacy and change of register without losing its kinky identity, as well as for new versions of themes created with several collaborating artists: Fermin Muguraza and Sorkun with the warm “I Come From”; DJ Panko, from Ojos de Brujo, with “Lo Llevas Claro!” marked by its definite drum´n´bass accent; the Italian DJ, Rudeman, with the sensational “Pirata Capitán”; Marc Llobera, from Cheb Balowski, with the colorful “Maria”; Roberto Sánchez, from Basque Dub Foundation, with “No Sun” and also Electroputas, Beautyfulañica, Hohmann… pseudonyms for close friends of the group and from the same members of the band who put the finishing touches on this delicious pastel of original songs.

If you are already a fan of La Kinky Beat, this will give you even more reason to place them among your favorite groups. If you are not familiar with them, there is no better introduction.
