Born from the creative mind of Nicola Mauskovic, the ensemble has carved out a niche within the global music scene with their unique and infectious energy that seamlessly blends traditional genres with modern electronic music sensibilities. The band's lineup invokes a family-like collective, comprising brothers and close collaborators who share a mutual passion for creating rhythmically-driven music that encourages movement and exploration of different sonic textures and cultural influences.

Since their inception, The Mauskovic Dance Band has gained acclaim for their vibrant live performances and a string of releases that showcase their commitment to rhythmic innovation and genre-bending. From their self-titled debut album to their pulsating "Live at Paradise Garage," they continue to push the boundaries of contemporary dance music. Notables tracks like "Bukaroo Bank" and "Shadance Hall" highlight their ability to infuse traditional Latin rhythms with spacey synths, creating a soundscape that is both rooted and otherworldly.
