"The inspiration is hip hop and bassline based club music mainly- we’ve been hip hop and jungle kids for years- but we’re also big into our house and electro, dubstep and grime- we just like to put all those things in the pot and see what comes from it… Its a simple concept really.. Its not really so much who, but what- old school rave, 80s hip hop, dubstep, jungle are all big for us right now!"
At 19 years old, Dj Plus One, won the 2000 Vestax DJ World Championship in Tokyo and placed 2nd to A-trak in the ITF World final in LA. A year later he went on to win the ultimate title, 2001 World DMC Champion. Beni G is currently grime rapper Plan B’s tour dj and a former DMC & ITF DJ Champion and 2-time Urban Music Award (UMA) winner.
“Jack beats was an accident in all honesty. We started making some crunked hip hop type beats a few years back for a laugh- We got into hybriding that with the fidget and dubstep shit that we were feeling, and that formed the basis for sound we have now. We didn’t want any preconceived ideas of what we’d sound like as Plus One and Beni G - as we wanted to do something fresh! Fortunately people seem to be really feeling it and we are busier than ever, and we’ve not even really got started yet. We’ve been fortunate enough to have had good support from key heads like Boy 8 bit, Touche and Sinden, and that has really helped us.”
