Stanton Warriors

Stanton Warriors have been around for so long that sometimes they get forgotten in the midst of all the new and up 'n' coming artists. It's kinda difficult to classify Stanton Warriors under one genre. They started off in garage and breakbeat, but their style encompasses everything from that to electro house to funk. This is from the bio on their page: "Stanton DJ sets are famed for incorporating exclusive original tracks mixed with homemade edits / remixes of cutting edge sounds from underground house through to abstract hip hop and everything in between. It’s all blended into a melting pot of low down booty electro punkishness, and is continually reminding the world why Stanton Warriors have remained unrivalled in their genre for more than a decade."
The most awesome thing about Stanton Warriors is that they're not sell-outs. You feel that they make music for the sake of making music, not for furthering their name or label. It is that ideology that has garnered them massive, almost cult-like, support from around the globe. Even though they've been around for so long, compared to the current crop of artists, Stanton Warriors are a breath of fresh air.
