About VITAMIN B: INTERNATIONAL TWERKER'S DAY
Aston and Matt started making tracks together in the mid '90's after discovering a mutual love of hip-hop, electro and beats. They released their first two album 'We Rock Hard' and 'Pressure Point' on the legendary Breakbeat label Freskanova. 'Raw as F**k' and 'Adventures in Freestyle' were released on 'Against The Grain' and another Breaks power house based out of Brighton, UK. From being voted 'Best Band' by Musik Magazine to touring with Lenny Kravitz on his American Woman tour (he asked them himself as he was so impressed with their act), rocking a crowd of 30,000 at Glastonbury Festival 1999 and performing at MTV's Times Square Millenium Party, playing Big Day Out '05.
Early tunes include 'B-Boy Stance,'' 'Ruffneck' and 'Warning' set the marker. As their music progressed so did their anthems with the seminal tunes 'Punks', 'Boom Blast', 'Fasten Your Seat-Belts,' 'Painkiller' and more recently 'Cracks.' In addition to their status as underground heroes, they have gained commercial success with their huge global hit 'Push Up' and have had their music featured in TV and film, including the hugely successful comedy film Zoolander.
Their ever-eclectic style and renegade approach to production focusing on everything in the bass music spectrum and is once again on show with their fifth studio album 'The Coming Storm' released on BlackHole/Rub-A-Duck Recordings June 2013. With the new addition to their production team Chris Bishop from Stereo:Type they've ramped up their sound into overdrive. Whether they're performing as a live band, sound system or DJ set, you know they are gonna rock hard.
