The Knocks From HeavyRoc

Gnarles Barkley caught the funk and a gun charge

About Me

DAMN! THE MIXTAPE - COMING SOON
Based out of the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Knocks are emerging as a force to be reckoned with as far as music production is concerned. Consisting of Ben "DJ B-Roc" Ruttner and James "JPatt" Patterson, the Knocks are named in reference to the early days of their production career when they worked out of their home studios. Their complaining neighbors would pound on the walls and ceilings. Two years later, they have upgraded to the Heavy Roc Music studio in Chinatown and are making names for themselves finding and developing talent as well as remixing the likes of major artists such as Shwayze and Katy Perry as well as many up and coming indie artists and bands.
"Successfully produced and managed the young pop star-in-waiting [Samuel] to a contract with newly-revived Columbia imprint StarTime."
-Neon Gold
The Knocks remix of the album American Gangster, American G-Funk, with DJ Benzi is so good that I think it's actually stronger overall than the original production. -getdownnn.blogspot.com
remixing up Passion Pit’s “Sleepyhead” they’ve put together a real nice funky pop hit. -East of LA
The Knocks Remix. Anything with this title in the track is guaranteed to bring it. -whatsupreeder.blogspot.com
