The Bloody Beetroots

Sobre

The Bloody Beetroots is the creation of Sir Bob Cornelius Rifo. Inspired by his lifelong love of punk rock and comics, Rifo unleashed The Bloody Beetroots in 2006 and has since crafted an intense sound that mixes his classical training, his punk rock obsession and his passion for electronic music into an edgy rock-meets-dance hybrid sound. TBB first exploded on the scene via his critically acclaimed debut LP ‘Romborama,’ feat. the iconic “Warp 1.9” with <a href="spotify:artist:77AiFEVeAVj2ORpC85QVJs" data-name="Steve Aoki">Steve Aoki</a>, both of which helped launch the American EDM boom at the end of the 2000s.
