K-Klass are responsible for some of the biggest house tracks and remixes ever made. With more than 30 years under the belt as DJ’s, remixers, live PA and also with the full live band reinstated now, they have seen trends come and still submit to one religion only: H.O.U.S.E. Nights out at the legendary Hacienda “Nude” nights in 1988 led to the meeting of minds and the beginnings of the K-Klass phenomena that lead to regular performances at the Hacienda. From there K-Klass became residents for the world’s biggest dance brands CREAM, playing guest slots all over the world at some of the most prestigious and biggest dance events. K-Klass had already gained under-ground support for their acclaimed “Wildlife E.P", released in 1990 before they unleashed their sound onto a nationwide audience with the release of “Rhythm is a Mystery” (No.3 in U.K.Top 40) and the huge “Let Me Show You” (No.13 in U.K.Top 40) and the internationally acclaimed remix for Bobbi Brown’s - 2 Can Play That Game (No.3 in U.K.Top 40 and top 10 all over Europe)
With countless remixes/ productions under their belt it comes as no surprise that K-Klass won the International Dance Awards in 1995 & were nominated for the USA Grammy Awards in the 2002 remix category. When K-Klass are not behind the decks they spend their time in the studio and have worked alongside most of the biggest and most established artists around, some of these include : The Pet Shop Boys, Kathy Brown, Shake Down, Whitney Houston, Gerri Halliwell, Blondie, Bobby Brown, M-People, Level 42, Kylie Minogue, Rozalla, Sunscreem, Frankie Knuckles, Bizzare Inc, Kathy Sledge, New Order, Janet Jackson, Luther Vandross, Lisa Stansfield and Candi Staton and many, many more.
In 2012 K-Klass started their own imprint Klass Action, featuring releases from up and coming as well as established producers: Futuristic Polar Bears, HAUS 51, Ben Dooks, Good & Plenty and the legendary Todd Terry. The K-Klass’ singles Is It You?, Take Some Time Out and their fab remixes of Let Me Show You and Rhythm Is A Mystery (Harry Romero, Jon Craig & Paul Morrell and K-Klass) have also gained global support.
Having celebrated 30 years in the business with a career spanning comp out on NewState, the return of their live band and more recently their musical curation and performance for the legendary CREAM Classical and Haçienda Classical concert series, K-Klass are still very much in demand allowing them to further nourish their extensive house music legacy.
