Triganomabeats
alrite folks. i guess our band is more of a group, going by the name triganomabeats. we consist of 2 human beatboxers, 1 scratch DJ and a rapper. we also have a couple of people behind us for making beats on computers, which 3 of the main band can also do and we have a couple of female vocalists at hand for when we get into the studio.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
hmm, we been together since about january 2004 or feb 2004. done live shows locally, started off as 3 beatboxers, then were reduced to two beatboxers (the other one is on the production side of things now) and added a scratch DJ and a rapper
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
hell yeah we play live! play anywhere we can get hold of coz there is nothing better than live music. if u cant play live, u aint got the talent.
Your musical influences
3 of the main group are hip-hop heads, u.k and u.s and one of them is a hip-hop/drum n bass/bassline head. everyone loves drum n bass n hip-hop!
What equipment do you use?
we use a pair of D.J turntables. sure SM58 mics and whatever else comes to hand. the korg kaos pad 2 is fun to play with!
Anything else?
