Benny lives in New York and runs a recording studio with Dinesh. Not sure if he's making beats.

Uh huh. I remember Blackdown playing me Classic Deluxe about 4 (?) years ago and me thinking "yeah, this whole 'garage' thing could work for me you know".

Still one of the best things I've ever set ears upon.

Their tracks are timeless...people will listen to them in years to come and they will still make sense...I still listen to them loads and marvel, so many little vocal snippets and film references etc...genius stuff...I hope they put some new material out...

Thanks for all the info! So now does anyone know if there will be future releases under the 'Horsepower' banner? I really hope so! "Fat Larrys Skank" is still one of my favourite dubstep tunes ever.... HEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!

What happened to horsepower

Post by tha_illsta » Sat Mar 18, 2006 7:15 pm

For your information....

Good news boppers, turns out those reports were wrong, all wrong.... Horsepower are still alive and kicking and several productions are in the pipeline. Lookout for some fresh tracks coming your way real soon.
We have a new identity, new sound, new beats and we're gonna do our best to keep you entertained in 2006

While we were away...respect is due to all producers, DJ's, promoters and listeners of dubstep music for keeping up the good 'ol undaground vybez. You know who you are !!!

We would be interested to hear from anyone who has any questions or comments of any nature so feel free to post them or e-mail me at

ben@sweetsoundsnyc.com

Respect

Benny
