The Knocks, an electronic music duo hailing from New York City, have been a formidable force in the dance music scene since their inception in the late 2000s. Comprised of Ben "B-Roc" Ruttner and James "JPatt" Patterson, The Knocks expertly blend elements of disco, funk, and soul with electronic beats, creating a sound that's both nostalgic and contemporary. The name "The Knocks" is a nod to their early production days in their home studio in Manhattan's East Village, where neighbors would knock on their door for playing music too loudly.
The duo has made an impressive mark with a string of hit remixes and energetic singles that have attracted a dedicated fan base and collaborations with high-profile artists. Among their recent offerings are tracks like "One On One", "Better Days" with King Garbage, and the foot-stomping "To A Disco", which underscore their mastery in crafting infectious dance floor anthems. Always evolving, The Knocks have also turned their hand to reimagining their own work, with fresh takes like the "Dancing With The DJ [2023 Mix]" and a collection of remixes exhibited in releases such as the "Twennies (The Knocks Remix)". Their ability to traverse genres and collaborate seamlessly with different artists can be heard in tracks like "Walking On Water (feat. Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs) [Jay Robinson Remix]" and "Omen (feat. Lyrah)", showcasing their versatility and breadth as producers that have kept them at the forefront of the electronic music landscape.
