When Kentastic and Rollin Hand started fooling around with some funky beats and cracking sounds in 2004 they had absolutely no clue where this could possibly lead them to.

"Gimme A Bassline!", their funky and infectious first single with an incredible dancefloor action effect, scored in various club charts, and hit top DJ playlist around the globe.

In no time their follow-up hit “Are You Talking To Me???” with mind-blowing remixes by Fort Knox Five (USA) and  producer wizards Skeewiff (England) set the spotlight straight onto the Torpedo Boyz.

In 2006/2007 the Torpedo Boyz scored worldwide with their incredible debut album "Headache Music“, a groovy and colorful longplayer perfectly suitable for dancefloors as well as „for your personal listening pleasures at home“. In 2007, five (!!!) tracks off this album alone were featured in US-American movies and major tv series!

All of a sudden the Torpedo Boyz were everywhere!

Kentastic got booked to spin his funky records around the globe and spread the word of Torpedo funkyness in countries like Israel, Germany, France, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Spain, Slovakia, Poland, Japan, Russia, Hungary, Holland and later that year toured the USA and Canada.

Spinning the funkiest breaks, fattest beats and grooviest basslines with a fine sense for tasty music, Kentastic has gained international respect.

BUT the Torpedo Boyz are far from just being DJs or club music producers.

The fact that they have managed to put their funky music live on stage is surely exceptional in their music scene. The Torpedo Boyz 5-piece live band travels with an international line-up featuring ODD (Japan) and Returner (Cuba).

With their incredible live show and unique outfit they left their audiences in disbelief with open mouths and hands in the air (as seen on their first tour Russia last year).

With their second album “Cum On Feel The Boyz” (to be released in the US on February 12th 2008) the Torpedo Boyz have returned with a pack of funk, punk, breaks, pop and loads of groovy beats and basslines! “Cum On Feel The Boyz” picks up where their debut left off and it comes with a big “P” for PARTY!

A few quotes on Torpedo Boyz releases…:

“Throw it on at your next shindig and much rump-shaking is sure to ensue.” (PLAYBOY, USA)

 "Colorful fireworks of Big Beats, Glam- and Poser-Rock, Piggy-Funk, Psychedelica and marvelous '60s and '70s quotations.“(Loop Magazine)

 "Maybe the most original and most imaginative album of the year. If AIR suddenly had balls, they would sound like the  Torpedo Boyz...“ (Westzeit on “Headache Music”)

 “’Cum on Feel the Boyz’ is all about ridiculous amounts of fun. There isn't a mundane moment on this record…” (First Coast News, USA)
