  BENASSI BROS

Benassi Bros is the hallmark of Benny and Alle Benassi, the Italian cousins, the production team behind the internationally successful Benny Benassi presents The Biz and KMC projects.
Benny Benassi is a dj-producer who, when he isn’t in the studio, spins records in premiere clubs in London, Paris, Rome and Miami, to name just a few of Benny’s home towns. His dj style is kinda electro, sort of house-tec, dirty and cool, sweaty and smooth….
Alle Benassi is a studio producer who is a sort of Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde figure on the European dance scene. He spends half his time in front of a computer screen generating the world’s most wicked bass riffs and the other half blowing his saxophone in the Europe’s hippest jazz clubs.
Alle and Benny have been working together for about five years now and have a happy work relationship arguing over the sound of the snare and the length of the reverb. Their first production success was as KMC and the track, called “I Feel So Fine”, with vocals by Dhany, went to number 1 in the UK club charts and hit the top 30 in the sales charts, too.


Then came Benny Benassi presents The Biz with a hit single, Satisfaction, that sold the world over and won the acclaim of the likes of Fat Boy Slim, Roger Sanchez, Carl Cox and other dance cognoscenti all over the planet. The album HYPNOTICAwrote an important page in the history of dance music, a groundbreaking electro house-tech album that has forged a new genre, Hypnotech, and set new standards for the production of dance music.
Whereas Benny Benassi presents The Biz concept is hypnotic techno house with highly filtered and computerized voices, designed to induce a state of frenzied trance, the BENASSI BROS concept is to highlight the vocal talent of the featured singers. So the vocal production aims at bringing out the full texture of the voices and the tracks are mostly songs in their more classic format.
The Benassi Bros. debut album PUMPHONIA went double gold in France and was a huge hit in Russia.
The first single from the album, "Illusion", featuring Sandy, shot up club and sales charts in Europe, staying in the n° 1 spot in the French official club chart for over a month.
The second single, "Hit My Heart", featuring vocals by Dhany, also went to n° 1 in the French official club chart and to n° 4 in the singles sales chart in France. In 2004 it was the most played track n NRJ, the trendsetting commercial radio station in France.
The project has gone down really well in USA, Canada and Eastern European countries too.
2005 brought a new album PHOBIA. The first two singles performed by Dhany, "Make me feel" and "Every single day" were sales and club chart smash hits in France and made big waves and other major European territories, as well as Russia.
The forthcoming single, "Rocket in the sky", is also performed by Dhany. Look out for the sizzling videos too.
