This post is long overdue. It's in my opinion one of the most important posts on the blog. What makes it so crucial? The focus is on the most influential and avant-garde production groups and producer currently making music. I give you, The Bloody Beetroots. For those who don't know, The Bloody Beetroots are made up of mainly Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo, who is behind most production, and Tommy Tea who is added help during live sets. The two both wear black spider man masks at all times when performing, and have in my opinion (and what has come to be almost a common school of knowledge) have brought more to electro than any other group. They hail from Italy, and SBCR has an extensive punk-hardcore background. He started as a frontman to a self-named group (check out the Kinky Malinki post here), and all aspects of that fast paced, harsh, three chord rock are present in his electronic music. SBCR is the godfather of electropunk. He has almost perfected the use of the hoover synth sound and compressor effects ("warp" sound), which is being imitated countlessly now. An image, an icon, an artist, Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo is an incredible producer and should be a household name if he isn't already.
Just a forewarning, seeing as the Beetroots are easily one of my top three favorite production groups right now if not my favorite, these posts may seem to be reoccurring, as every new song released will be posted here.
Here are some earsplitting tracks to add the Beetroots to your library.
