in a world where every party, rave, club & festival has a DJ, its not unusual to think, ‘..is this as good as it gets? what is the future??’ DVJs!! The worlds of Music and Video incorporated together. And whom is going to play this new form of? The Urban Knights are the DVJ’s Benny Kane & KVL.

Hailing from the musical hotbed that is Bristol, and currently touring and performing in the UK, Europe and Worldwide, they are more than just mere DJs The Knights pride themselves on originality and adding theatricality to performance weather it be a small bijou bar or to a 3000 person capacity club or festival. Signature to their video performance is the incorporation of costumes and masks. From film characters and capes and masks to full on Star Wars Bounty hunters, they know how to make a stage impact. They tailor their sets to suit performances so you never see the same show twice. Benny Kane of the UK team says ‘Video is the most powerful universal advertising medium on the planet’ ‘We like to cut all types of video for a performance, from live performances of Hendrix,
The Beatles & the Stones all the way to current dance floor dub-plates.’

KVL,
‘I like to drop and scratch video acapellas all over electro and breaks,
it adds the right flavours to get everyone involved on the dancefloor from your hardcore purists
to your average raver. Video has allowed us to play all types of music in a set that previously would
never have been possible ­ from Breaks n Electro to HipHop & Drum n Bass’

 

Benny Kane,
‘ We don’t pigeon hole ourselves to a single genre or style,
we like to rock a crowd, and leave them wanting more...’
